How many lessons?

Which age group are you in?

Age 17-21 Age 21-30 Age 30-40 Age 40+

Unfortunately as we get older we tend to need more lessons, hence the saying "you can't teach an old dogs new tricks"

Which best describes you?

I feel comfortable learning new practical skills, I consider myself to have good co-ordination IE. I don't have two left feet

I feel I am not as good as above but not as bad as below

I am very nervous about learning new practical skills and consider my co-ordination to be very poor

If you can dance and learn complicated new dance moves very easily, consider yourself to have good co-ordination skills.

When learning to drive both feet must operate independently of each other, for instance lifting the clutch pedal sometimes needs to be coordinated with pressing the gas or brake pedal and vice versa, this needs to be done without thinking about it as our arms may need to be changing gear or steering whilst we are concentrating on what is happening around us.

In the early stages of learning to drive we need to concentrate on the above skills, only when we can co-ordinate without thinking about it, focus and adapt correctly to what is happening around us without any prompts from a third party can we truly say "I Can Drive"

Have you driven in the last 6 months?

Yes No

Which best describes you?

I have had a little practice on car parks/roads

I can currently move a car from the side of the road and build my speed up to the appropriate speed using all the gears at the correct time and then stop the car safely

I can currently do the above and turn left & right at junctions without any prompts from a third party

I can currently do the above and drive for 30 minutes on main roads and side roads without any prompts from a third party

I can currently do the above and reverse the car slowly round a corner keeping reasonably close to the kerb 9 out of 10 times

Which best describes you?

I have never driven before

I used to be able to move a car from the side of the road and build my speed up to the appropriate speed using all the gears at the correct time and then stop the car safely

I used to be able to do the above and turn left & right at junctions without any prompts from a third party

I used to be able to do the above and drive for 30 minutes on main roads and side roads without any prompts from a third party

I used to be able to do the above and reverse the car slowly round a corner keeping reasonably close to the kerb 9 out of 10 times

Learning to drive is like riding a bike, so don't worry even if you last drove 10 years ago it will only take a few lessons to get you back to that standard

A person within your age group and experience on average should require lessons to Pass the Driving Test

Please note: we have arrived at this figure from many years of teaching people to drive, everyone is different, as such there are occasionally exceptions to the rule.

If this is more than expected you should be aware that, the test is much harder then it used to be with the introduction of high speed driving and the bay parking exercise
