Driving Lessons Gillingham Dorset

Most people learn to drive by having weekly lessons in Gillingham and we would recommend that as a learner driver, you have two hour lessons at a time. Two hour driving lessons will allow you to learn more and spend more time on each subject meaning you can be ready for your driving test quicker than if you only took hourly lessons each week. This in turn can help you save money as you will need less hours to be ready for your driving test.

Driving Lessons Gillingham currently have ten local driving instructors offering manual driving lessons in Gillingham and the surrounding areas. We even have a discounted intro deal to get you started with your driving lessons.

You driving instructor will be happy to pick you up from home, work or college and will then take you to a suitable area to start your driving lesson.

Automatic driving lessons can be ideal for anyone who struggles with changing gear, who finds driving a very complex task (even after a fair few lessons, when for most of us the whole clutch-gear-biting point thing has switched to autopilot mode)

Driving an automatic car has definite benefits too. The car changes gear for you at the appropriate time, so you’ll rarely over-rev an automatic car; and although your fuel consumption may be slightly less economical than a manual car, overall it can make a worthwhile difference in the level of effort required when driving on longer journeys.

It also makes driving a lot less stressful as all you need to do is control the brake and the accelerator which give you so much more time to think about the road and other road users and not thinking about your clutch and gears. We often find this can also lead to you needing less overall driving lessons as you will pick up driving a lot quicker which can save you both time and money.

Both weekly Automatic Lessons  & Automatic One Week Intensive Driving Courses are available in Gillingham Doset and the surrounding areas.

We are also able to offer you a one week intensive driving course in Gillingham and the surrounding areas. These are sometimes also referred to as Crash Courses and these intensive courses can be an ideal way for you to reach the driving test standard sooner and be ready to take your driving test at an earlier date than you would with conventional weekly driving lessons.

This can be a perfect way to learn to drive if you need your driving licence fast as maybe a new job offer depends on it or you are simply too busy for weekly driving lessons. By having your driving lessons close together, it can also mean you need less hours of driving overall to reach the driving test standard and so in turn an intensive driving course can save you money on the cost of learning to drive.

These type of driving courses can be very tiring and require serious commitment from you. They may not be suitable for everyone and it is recommended that you have at least had a couple of driving lessons before considering a one week intensive driving course.

Before we can book your practical driving test or your intensive driving course you will need to have passed your theory test as we prefer to book your practical driving test for the last day of your intensive driving course as this proves to be better for you than having to wait for the driving test.

If you are eager to learn to drive but you havent turned 17 yet then you may be interested in our Under 17 Driving Lessons that are held once a month at Henstridge Airfield or The Royal Bath & West Showground. 

These under 17 driving sessions have proved very popular and are a great way of getting a head start with your driving and have also been proven to help reduce road traffic accidents among 17 year old drivers that first attended under 17 driving sessions such as ours.

The Under 17's driving sessions are open to anyone aged 12+ that meet our minimum height of 4ft 8ins and are all one to one with qualified driving instructors using dual controlled cars.

The government are due to change the law on towing trailers in the UK from November 15th 2021 and you will no longer need to take a B+E driving test in order to tow a trailer up to 3,500kg MAM.

We are still able to offer you training and experience if you feel the need before you tow for the first time as its not as easy as it looks and can be very dangerous for inexperienced drivers.
