Book an Intensive Driving Course

Even though intensive driving courses in Chapel Allerton can be quite demanding, you may find the results to be well worth it if your goal is to pass your driving test quickly. A driving intensive course is the fastest and most cost-effective way to pass your driving test. Lessons are longer than the standard hourly lesson on an intensive driving course because the course is only spread out over a couple of days or weeks, as opposed to being spread across a few months. A two-day intensive driving class will provide 10 hours of instruction instead of the usual 1 hour per week. People with no driving experience can take longer intensive courses to make sure that you get enough tuition. The DSA recommends that all driving students complete at least 40 hours professional driving tuition before sitting the driving test. An alternative option is to book weekly driving lessons. Although this is a good option, it will take you between 4 and 6 months to complete with one 2 hour lesson every week. If you only book a 1-hour lesson per week it will take you 8 to 12 months. As the lessons are so spread out there’s a good chance that you will spend much of your lesson time repeating the lessons from the week before.

It is not necessarily easier to learn how to drive an automatic car, it all depends on what you are dealing with. It won’t make much of a difference to you if you have a common issue like observation. If you are having difficulty with clutch control or gear changes, learning to drive an automatic will be a lot easier. Driving in urban areas with lots congestion it is easier. Driving in traffic-heavy areas will require you to change gears frequently because of the constant stop-start nature. This can be an issue for experienced drivers as well as those who are learning to drive a manual vehicle. Taking your driving test in an automatic car is easier than driving in a manual car as you do not have the risk of stalling the car and any struggles you have with clutch control. In an automatic car you are able to handle difficult manoeuvres such as a turn in the road or a hill-start easier, which can be daunting for students who drive a manual car, as there are no gears or clutch control to worry about. If you have difficulties with the gears in a manual car, an automatic car may be a better choice. You might find it easier to learn how to drive and pass your driving test.

Is There A Downside To Driving An Automatic Car?

Automatic cars are more costly to purchase, maintain and run than manual cars. This is why automatic driving lessons are more expensive than manual driving lessons. A downside to learning to drive an automatic car is that your license does not qualify you to drive a manual car. However, if you pass your test in a manual car, you will be able to drive both. You may find that passing your test in an automatic car could limit your options for buying or renting a car in the future. Also, if later you decide you would prefer to drive manual cars, then you’ll need to take another driving test. Automatic cars have a lower pass rate than manual cars. However, don’t let this deter you as every year thousands of learners pass their driving tests in automatic cars.
