LEARNER QUESTIONS

Here are a few questions answered honestly.

Is learning to drive difficult?

The short answer is no, providing you have a good instructor and make the most of lessons.
Learning to drive is a 2 way partnership between you and the instructor, relax and learn.

Where will I learn?

Lessons are normally in your local area, as your confidence grows we go a little further each time building on the skills you develop from each lesson.

How many lessons will I need?

The honest answer is, I don't know. Every learner goes at their own pace therefore virtually impossible to guess at how long it'll take to learn safe driving. Modern day driving is not about a test it's about being safe. By being safe you'll find the test straightforward. The DSA recommend 45 hours plus 20 hours private practice.

How much will it cost to learn?

Driving is a skill you'll have for life and when measured over that period you'll find it's good value. Expect to spend between £800 - £1200 over the course of your lessons. This figure is an estimate and is based on DSA recommended lessons from a reputable, approved driving instructor. Training is 'pay as you go' so easy to manage.

What will happen on a typical 60 minute lesson ?
