If you would like to learn to drive in Barnsley then you have come to trhe right place! Control Driving School was established in Barnsley in 2002. Our main aim was to provide quality driving lessons at affordable prices and we have achieved that for the past thirteen years, which is why we are regarded as one of the most reliable and friendly driving schools in the area.
Here are a few of the different driving tuition courses we offer in Barnsley, Pontefract and Rotherham. This is your typical type of driving lessons but structured to suit you and your style of learning so you can progress as quickly as possible. Designed for people who need to be through their test as quickly as possible.
A multiple-choice test comprising 50 multiple-choice questions covering aspects of the Highway Code. The pass mark is 43. A hazard perception test consisting of a series of video clips of actual road hazards that need to be identified. The pass mark is 44. The current driving test lasts approximatly 38 minutes this now includes a ten minute independant drive which was introduced last year.
Statistics prove that the risk of having an accident is highest during the first years of driving after passing the driving test. This is why the Government launched the Pass Plus programme. Backed by the Driving Standards Agency (DSA) and major motor insurance companies, it is designed to help new drivers gain more experience and become better equipped for the demands of modern driving.
You will be asked one of the questions below at the start of your test before starting the engine. Q1 Show me how you would check that the direction indicators are working. A1 Applying the indicators or hazard warning switch and check functioning of all indicators. Q2 Show me how you would check that the brake lights are working on this car.

After failing my test twice and my previous instructor retiring I started my lessons with Chris and learning felt totally different, I was at ease and started taking things onboard a lot easier. Top notch bloke. After putting in for my first test after starting with Chris I passed! Thank you so much. - Steve H
