How Many Lessons Will It Take For Me To Pass My Driving Test?

There are many factors which contribute to how long it will take to pass your driving test, including financial and time constraints. Someone who is able to take a couple of lessons a week (and doesn’t struggle with the practical and theoretical application of learning to drive) will most likely be confident enough to take their driving test at an earlier stage than someone who feels less confident, cannot afford to have as many driving lessons as they’d like and struggles more with the practical and theoretical aspects of learning.

Regular lessons are important.

 Try to keep the gaps as close together, one to two hours each week.   If you are unsure about any aspect of our driving lessons then please call.
