IT'S IMPORTANT WHO TEACHES YOU

You are able to practice your theory and hazard perception at any age and we would suggest that you commence your studies at least three months before you are seventeen. You will then be able to take the theory and HPT examination on, or shortly after your birthday.

It is very important who teaches you to drive and choosing the correct instructor should not depend on price alone. It is a known fact in the industry that some instructors will give you more lessons than you actually need, so any early saving on lesson price is eradicated by the amount of lessons you eventually have.

Independence Driving Centre will be able to give you a guide to the amount of lessons that you may need to pass your test, and they will be able to give you this information within the first few lessons.

Driving Standards Agency recommend that most learners take at least 40 hours professional tuition and many hours from friends and family helps.

The learning to drive CD-ROM.

We can only work on an average as all learners are different, and the average currently is 30 hours, although some pass quicker and others need more hours.

When taking lessons from Independence Driving Centre learners may borrow the theory and hazard perception CD ROMS to practice this element at home. There is a small deposit required which is refunded in full when they are returned.

For those students who are experiencing difficulty in passing the theory and HPT we offer FREE one to one tuition at our training facility.
