Our patient, reliable & friendly driving instructors are all licenced by the Driving Standards Agency, and often hold advanced driving certificates from the Institute of Advanced Motorists (IAM) or RoSPA Advanced Drivers (ROADA). As you learn to drive, we will not only teach you to pass your test, but our driving lessons will give you the skills required to drive in today’s demanding traffic conditions. Becoming a new driver can open a whole new world of freedom and independence, but it is not just about passing your test. We aim to give you the confidence to tackle driving in the 21st century, and the skills to survive, ensuring ‘safe driving for life’.
Theory Test You can start taking driving lessons once you have received your provisional licence, and reached the age of 17, but before you can take your practical test, you must pass both parts of the theory test. You will be you'll be asked 50 questions in 57 minutes and the pass mark is 43 out of 50, followed by a test of your hazard perception skills. You will need to pass both parts of the theory test at the same sitting to obtain your theory test pass certificate. You can obtain further details from the Driving Standards Agency website at www.dsa.gov.uk or ask us for details of theory test training, or home-study for which we can supply a range of books and cd-roms. Practical Test The test lasts about 40 minutes, during which your examiner will want you to drive safely and competently in various road and traffic conditions. You will be given directions and asked to carry out set exercises, which will include two of the following; reversing around a corner, turning in the road & reverse parking. You may also be asked to carry out an emergency stop. Apart from general driving, your test will also include an eyesight test. You will be required to read a car registration plate from 22.5 metres. We are able to ensure that you are fully prepared for your test, and although this will not guarantee a pass, our pupils have an excellent pass rate, but it is important that you drive like you have been driving on your driving lessons.
