Brian Coutts founder of B.J’s Driving School unexpectedly passed away due to a heart attack on the

26 th May 2017.

Brian and his wife Susan officially opened B.J’s Driving School on the 1 st of June 1990 where they

worked side by side for 27 years.

Brian was dedicated to his business and had high standards of teaching his students. He worked

countless hours on and off the road to strive for more alert and defensive drivers.

Outside of work Brian treasured family time and spent many hours playing board games, yahtzee,

darts and pool, he also had a passion for the Kruger Park which he and his wife Susan visited many

times and had plans to retire there.

Many people will remember Brian for his happy and upbeat personality and practical jokes or as

some would say the “crazy Scotsman”.

Acknowledgements

The family wishes to acknowledge the many expressions of love and kindness shown to them during

this time of bereavement, also our drivers Jabu and Steve who soldiered on and to Jackie who

stepped into the office to keep business as normal as possible.

Brian built an amazing team, we hope to continue business up to his standards in his memory. Lara

will continue to teach driving to the same standards her dad taught her to teach.
