How long will it take me to learn to drive?

The reality is you never stop learning to improve your driving skills. Passing the practical test is just the beginning, enabling you to drive unsupervised. Throughout your life whilst driving you will continue to meet different, often unexpected situations on the roads, which will require you to react accordingly, drawing on the knowledge of past experiences and learning from the outcomes of the new ones. Your driving lessons will help develop the foundations for safe and considerate driving to help you deal with most circumstances. More >

Growing up in a household where both parents are not drivers, getting my learner’s permit wasn’t a priority for me. I FINALLY decided at the age of 27 to get my act together and get my L’s!
My driving instructor was David and I have nothing but praise for him. He wasn’t pushy or forceful….he understood I needed more time than others in preparing for my P’s. He was kind, knowledgeable, supportive and funny. More >

After my weekly lessons with Brian I was able to obtain my license, in which I was deeply grateful to Brian for helping me achieve. More >
