One of Southport's most recognisable driving instructors has been fondly remembered after his death last month.
Pete Dodd would often be seen driving around Southport in his BMW with 'Pete Dodd L' proudly displayed on the roof. Pete was unfortunately forced into retirement following a trip to the doctors in December though.
The dad-of-three was given the news he had motor neurone disease and little did he know he had just months to live before dying on March 18 this year. Following the heart-breaking news, that has rocked people across the town, dozens are expected to gather on Southport beach to remember one of Merseyside's more iconic characters as learners from down the years pay their respects to the man that got them on the road.
