Frequently Asked Questions

Your most common queries answered by our professional team.

Absolutely! We serve multiple locations across Essex and Suffolk regions. You can access our services for Driving Lessons in Chelmsford and Driving Lessons in Basildon, maintaining the same high standards across all areas we cover.

While we recommend choosing one transmission type for consistency, we understand circumstances change. We can accommodate switches between manual and automatic vehicles, though this may require additional lessons to adjust to the different driving experience.

We recommend booking your test once you’ve completed around 20-25 hours of instruction and feel confident with independent driving. Our instructors will assess your readiness and guide you through the booking process when the time is right.

Driving lessons can be booked for 1 Hour, 1 ½ Hours or 2 hours with 2 hour lessons being the norm (and most productive) lesson duration (Can be booked either one two hour lesson or two one hour lessons). Two hour driving lessons allow the pupil adequate practice time around the test areas and boost the learning process.

This really depends on several factors. The official DVSA answer is 40 to 60 hours this can be a bit misleading. Few people pass in less than 40 hours unless they have their own car and practise with family or friends.  It also depends on your ability to retain the information being taught.  Age and circumstances also play a great role in the ability to learn. The most important factor though is your willingness to learn to become a safe driver.
