Please note that this is provisional driving lesson booking and dependant on whether your preferred date and time is available, no bookings are guaranteed until confirmed by us. Do not hesitate to learn with Simon, he is good at what he does, and is very patient and kind. Easy going. Thanks so much for everything Simon, for the fun and laugh while learning how to drive.

I have been an ADI for several years and have helped people of all ages and driving abilities to pass the driving test, many passing first time! Cannot thank Simon enough, I passed yesterday with 2 minors, he makes you feel relaxed and is very funny during lessons which make them go quickly when you are as nervous as I was during lessons.

We recommend applying for a provisional licence as soon as possible as you will need this before you start learning to drive. You can apply for your provisional driving licence up to three months before your 17th birthday although you cannot drive on the road until you have turned 17 and you have the provisional licence in your possession.

Once you've obtained your provisional licence, you will need to start thinking about taking your theory driving test. The DSA theory test consists of a multiple choice section and a hazard perception test.

You will need to be successful in both parts in order to pass overall, so we suggest getting the recommended reading under your belt and attempting as many mock theory tests as possible to familiarise yourself with the structure of the programme.The multiple choice section is presented with a touch screen computer.

According to the DSA, "Those who pass their driving test have had, on average, about 45 hours of professional training combined with 22 hours of private practice." This reinforces the importance of preparation and practice before embarking on your driving practical test.

There are numerous driving practical test tips and advice that will help you leading up to the big day; however the key things to remember are what your examiner will be looking out for.For example, they will be observing an overall high and safe standard of driving, particularly when executing certain manoeuvres and exercises.
