I moved to a new city in August and was 3 months into looking for an instructor! I was almost giving up at hat point thinking it’s not meant to be… until I read about rated driving app and downloaded it! A day and assigned me a brilliant driving instructor in my city, who I have already booked my test with and enjoy doing lessons! Definitely recommend!

Guide to driving lessons in Aylesford

Driving lessons are an exciting and essential part of learning how to drive. Whether you are a first-time learner or need to refresh your driving skills, it's crucial to choose the right driving school and instructor. In this article, we will provide you with an overview of driving lessons in Aylesford, including what learners should expect and how they can best prepare for their driving lessons.

What Learners Should Expect:

Theory and Practical Lessons - A good driving school should provide both theoretical and practical lessons. Theoretical lessons involve studying the Highway Code, understanding road signs and markings, and learning about the rules of the road. Practical lessons, on the other hand, involve learning how to operate the vehicle, including starting, stopping, accelerating, and steering.

Qualified and Experienced Instructors - Learners should choose a driving school with qualified and experienced instructors. A good instructor should be patient, calm, and supportive. They should also have excellent communication skills and be able to explain driving concepts in a way that is easy to understand.

Flexible Lesson Scheduling - Aylesford driving schools should offer flexible lesson scheduling to fit around learners' busy lives. Driving lessons can be arranged to take place during the weekdays or weekends and at times that suit learners best.

Safety First - Safety should be a top priority for any driving school. Learners should expect to learn how to drive safely in different weather and road conditions. Instructors should also teach learners about safety features in their vehicles, such as seatbelts, airbags, and anti-lock braking systems.

How Learners Can Best Prepare:

Study the Highway Code - Learners should study the Highway Code before taking their driving lessons. The Highway Code contains all the rules and regulations of the road and is an essential resource for any learner driver.

Practice with Friends and Family - Practicing with friends and family members who are already licensed drivers can help learners gain confidence and improve their driving skills.

Get Plenty of Rest - Learners should get plenty of rest before their driving lessons. Driving requires concentration, and learners need to be alert and focused during their lessons.

Dress Appropriately - Learners should wear comfortable clothing and footwear during their driving lessons. They should also dress appropriately for the weather conditions.

Driving lessons in Aylesford FAQ's

Is it better to have 2 hour driving lessons?

For most people learning to drive, 2 hour lessons are more beneficial than 1 hour lessons. There are many reasons for this which include: Reduced learning time overall (can reduce by a third) Reduced costs to the learner (2 hour sessions cost less as they are seen as getting a deal). Speak to your instructor in the Rated Driving app and they will do their best to cater to your requirements.

Is it quicker to pass in an automatic?

Learning in an automatic car has it benefits. The main one that learners like is the fact they do not need to master the clutch that comes in manual cars. As such, generally, there is less to learner so some learners may find it quicker to pass their driving test. And the quicker you pass your test, the less money you'll spend on driving lessons. Please note that automatic driving lessons normally cost more than manual driving lessons.

How many lessons does it take to drive?

According to the Driving Standards Agency (DSA) learner drivers need on average 44 hours of professional driving lessons to pass their driving test. To speed up learning, learners can always practice with a family member providing they are the correct age, the car is safe and legal to use and you have the correct car insurance.

Should I learn to drive in a manual or an automatic car?

It's a tough one. Many learners like to take their driving lessons in a manual car as they get the benefit of being able to driving manual and automatic cars, where as having an automatic driving licence means that you will only be allowed to drive automatic cars.

There is change coming though. As we turn to a greener future, electric cars are now becoming popular as they are far more friendly to the environment with the added bonus of them being automatic. The UK Government has said that all combustion engine cars will not be allowed to be sold from 2030 so learning automatic is actually not a bad choice.

Automatic driving lessons generally cost more than manual lessons but learners tend to need less lessons so the cost balances out by the time you pass your driving test.

Is an intensive driving course a good idea?

An intensive driving course can save you time and money as you might need fewer hours' training. There are some downsides though. With normal hourly driving lessons you get to experience many different driving and weather conditions which will allow you to learn how to drive and build confidence in all circumstances.

Normally, an intensive course is far more expensive than hourly lessons as you will be packing in all your lessons into 7-14 day window and taking your driving test at the end. It's a lot of pressure and not for the faint hearted but if you are a quick learner and keen to pass fast, intensive driving lessons could be the right path for you.
