I cannot express enough gratitude for the incredible experience I had with Manju. From the very first lesson to the triumphant moment of passing my driving test, her expertise, patience, and unwavering support made all the difference. Manju is really good at communicating. Complicated concepts were broken down into manageable parts, making it easy for me to grasp and apply them on the road. Her constructive feedback was always delivered in a positive manner, maintaining an environment of continuous improvement. The personalized approach extended to the lesson planning as well. Whether it was parallel parking, navigating busy junctions, or mastering driving on dual carriageways, each session was thoughtfully structured to build on the skills I needed most. The instructor's commitment to my success was evident in their flexibility and willingness to revisit challenging areas until I felt completely at ease. Moreover, her punctuality and reliability were impeccable. Every lesson started on time, and their dedication to my progress was evident in their meticulous preparation for each session. This level of professionalism created a seamless and efficient learning experience. Thanks to my instructor's guidance, I not only passed my driving test but feel well-equipped to navigate the roads confidently and responsibly. If you're looking for a driving instructor who combines expertise, patience, and a genuine passion for teaching, look no further. I wholeheartedly recommend Manju for anyone embarking on their journey to become a skilled and safe driver.

Common questions about our intensive driving courses

Intensive driving lessons are a type of driver education program that involves condensed, focused training sessions designed to help individuals learn to drive within a short period of time, often ranging from a few days to a few weeks.

These lessons are aimed at individuals who need to learn to drive quickly, such as those who have limited time due to work or school commitments, or those who need to obtain a driving licence for employment or other purposes.

Intensive driving lessons typically involve longer training sessions and may include a higher number of driving hours per day than traditional driving lessons. However, they are not suitable for everyone, and learners should consider their ability to handle the intensity of such lessons before committing to them.

Intensive driving courses can be effective in helping individuals learn to drive quickly and get their driving licence in a short amount of time.

However, their success largely depends on the individual’s ability to handle the intensity of the training and their prior experience with driving. Intensive driving courses are not suitable for everyone, and learners should consider their own learning style, availability, and skill level before committing to such courses.

Additionally, it is important to choose a reputable driving school with experienced instructors to maximise the chances of success.

Here are the benefits of taking a driving crash course:

  • Allows learners to get their driving licence in a shorter amount of time than traditional driving lessons.
  • Can be a good option for learners who need to fit their lessons around a busy schedule.
  • Maybe more intensive and focused, allowing learners to make more progress in a shorter period of time.
  • Can include mock driving tests to help learners prepare for the real test.
  • Maybe a good choice for learners who are confident and capable drivers but need a bit of extra help to pass their driving test.
  • Can be a cost-effective option if a learner is able to pass their driving test on the first attempt after taking the crash course.

The cost of an intensive driving course in the UK varies depending on several factors, including the location, duration of the course, and the driving school or instructor has chosen.

On average, an intensive driving course in the UK can cost between £800 and £2,000. However, prices can be higher or lower depending on how many hours you are looking for.

It is recommended to research and compare prices and course offerings from different driving schools before choosing an intensive driving course to ensure you get the best value for your money.

Intensive driving courses can be worth it for certain individuals who have a limited amount of time to learn to drive or need to get their driving licence quickly.

They can be more cost-effective than taking traditional driving lessons over a longer period of time, and may be helpful for individuals who prefer a focused and intensive learning experience.

However, intensive driving courses are not suitable for everyone, and learners should consider their learning style and ability to handle the intensity of the course before committing to it.

It is also important to choose a reputable driving school with experienced instructors to maximise the chances of success. Ultimately, whether or not an intensive driving course is worth it will depend on individual circumstances and goals.

It is possible to pass your driving test in 2 weeks through an intensive driving course, but it largely depends on your prior experience and ability to handle the intensity of the training.

The average person typically requires 47 hours of driving practice to pass their test, so an intensive course that offers several hours of driving practice each day may help you gain the necessary skills quickly.

However, it is important to choose a reputable driving school with experienced instructors to maximise your chances of success. Additionally, passing a driving test depends on a variety of factors, including the individual’s driving ability, the driving conditions on test day, and the examiner’s assessment.

While it is possible to pass your driving test in 2 weeks, it is not guaranteed, and learners should approach the process with realistic expectations.

No, there is no guarantee that you will pass your driving test on a crash course or intensive driving course.

The success of these courses largely depends on the individual’s ability to handle the intensity of the training and their prior experience with driving. Learners who have never driven before or those who struggle with driving may not be able to pass their test even after completing a crash course.

Additionally, passing a driving test depends on a variety of factors, including the individual’s driving ability, the driving conditions on test day, and the examiner’s assessment.

While a crash course can be a helpful way to learn to drive quickly, there is no guarantee of success.

The number of driving lessons required to pass a driving test varies from individual to individual, and it largely depends on their prior experience with driving and their ability to learn new skills.

On average, it takes around 45 hours of driving practice to pass a driving test, according to the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) in the UK. However, some individuals may need more or fewer lessons depending on their specific circumstances.

It is important to choose a reputable driving school with experienced instructors to help you determine the number of lessons you need and to maximize your chances of passing your test. Additionally, practicing outside of lessons can help speed up the learning process and improve your driving skills.

Intensive driving courses are structured to provide focused and condensed training sessions that aim to help learners acquire driving skills quickly. The structure of an intensive driving course will depend on the driving school and the course chosen.

Generally, these courses offer several hours of driving practice per day, and may also include theoretical classroom sessions. Intensive driving courses can last for a few days up to several weeks, depending on the course chosen and the learner’s availability.

The courses can be tailored to suit individual needs, and learners can choose the course structure that best fits their learning style and goals. The structure of the course will be determined by the driving instructor and may be adjusted throughout the course as the learner progresses.

Yes, an intensive driving course can include a theory test, but it depends on the specific course chosen and the driving school offering the course.

Some intensive driving courses may include both practical and theoretical training, with a focus on helping learners pass both the theory and practical tests required to get a driving licence.

However, not all intensive driving courses include a theory test, and it is important to check with the driving school or instructor to determine if a theory test is included in the course. If a theory test is not included, learners may need to book and take the theory test separately.

Rated Driving is a good option if you are looking for an intensive driving course. We have over 1000 experienced DVSA-approved driving instructors and a 4.9-star rating on Google reviews from satisfied customers.

Rated Driving offers customisable courses based on a student’s specific needs and learning style. With our courses, you can pass your driving test quickly, and become a safe and confident driver in a shorter amount of time, and at a competitive price.

The manoeuvres that learners can expect to practice during an intensive driving course will depend on the specific course chosen and the driving school offering the course. However, in general, intensive driving courses will cover all of the manoeuvres that are required to pass a driving test, including:

  1. Parallel parking
  2. Bay parking
  3. Reversing around a corner
  4. Turn in the road (three-point turn)
  5. Emergency stop

Learners can expect to practice these manoeuvres multiple times to build their confidence and proficiency. Additionally, learners may practice driving in different road and traffic conditions to prepare for real-life driving situations.

The specific manoeuvres covered and the amount of time spent on each manoeuvre will be determined by the driving instructor and may be adjusted throughout the course as the learner progresses.

The duration of an intensive driving course can vary depending on the course chosen, the learner’s availability, and their prior experience with driving.

Intensive driving courses can last anywhere from a few days up to several weeks. Generally, courses that last for a few days will include several hours of driving practice each day, while longer courses may have a more spread-out schedule to accommodate the learner’s availability.

The duration of the course can also depend on the learner’s ability to acquire the necessary driving skills and pass their driving test. Learners who have some prior experience with driving may be able to complete an intensive driving course in a shorter amount of time than those who are new to driving.

Ultimately, the length of the course will depend on the individual’s goals and availability, and it is important to choose a course that suits your specific needs.

Intensive driving courses can be better for certain individuals who have a limited amount of time to learn to drive and need to get their driving license quickly.

They offer a focused and condensed learning experience that can be more efficient and cost-effective than taking traditional driving lessons over a longer period of time.

Intensive driving courses can also be helpful for individuals who prefer a more immersive and intensive learning experience. However, intensive driving courses are not suitable for everyone, and learners should consider their learning style and ability to handle the intensity of the course before committing to it.

It is also important to choose a reputable driving school with experienced instructors to maximise the chances of success.

Ultimately, whether or not an intensive driving course is better than traditional driving lessons will depend on individual circumstances and goals.
