Want to take driving lessons but don't know where to start?

A busy driving instructor is busy for a reason … they're good at their job!

Learning to drive can be an expensive business, so it makes sense to choose your driving instructor carefully. Below are some questions you may wish to consider:

§ Is the instructor a fully-qualified Approved Driver Instructor (ADI)? Check for a green, octagonal DSA badge in the front windscreen of the tuition vehicle.

§ What is the instructor's pass rate for learners sitting the practical test for the first time?

§ Does the instructor offer free home visits or if you already have driving experience a free assessment drive for you to meet them before agreeing to lessons?

§ How long, and how much, are lessons?

§ Will you get a discount for booking a block of lessons in advance?
