Is This Course Right for You?

The 45-hour course is best suited for complete beginners who want the most comprehensive, structured start to learning how to drive.

It’s ideal if you’ve never driven before and want plenty of time to build confidence, practise in different road conditions, and cover every key area of driving in detail. This course is especially helpful for nervous drivers or those who want to take a steady, supportive approach without feeling rushed.

Once you’ve booked, we’ll arrange your course with a DVSA-approved instructor in your area based on your availability and preferences.

🧠 What’s Included

As an agent, we arrange everything on your behalf:

  • A 45-hour intensive course delivered by a DVSA-approved instructor
  • Lessons scheduled across 9 to 15 sessions, depending on your availability and your instructor’s schedule
  • 2 hours reserved for your test day, including car hire
  • A personalised course structure created by your instructor, focusing on safe, confident driving and full test preparation

You’ll start with the basics — clutch control, moving off and stopping — and build up to more advanced driving such as multi-lane roundabouts, dual carriageways, complex junctions, and independent driving.

👤 Who This Course Is Best For

This course is ideal for:

  • Complete beginners with zero driving experience
  • Learners who want a slow, structured approach to learning
  • Nervous or anxious drivers who benefit from extra time and support
  • Those who want to maximise their chances of passing first time by covering everything thoroughly

If you’re unsure whether this is the right course for you, just get in touch — we’ll help you figure out the best starting point based on your confidence level and goals.

Need a Sooner Driving Test?

The DVSA currently has long delays for practical test dates — in many areas, wait times can stretch beyond 20 weeks.

To avoid this, we work with a trusted third-party provider who sends us daily fast-track test cancellations.

Once your instructor is confirmed and your first lesson is scheduled, we’ll begin the search for a test date. At this stage, we’ll ask both you and your instructor to share up to three local test centres you’re happy to use. This helps us widen the net and increases our chances of securing a test as close as possible to the end of your course.

Ashleigh – Passed with 1 Minor!

I booked my crash course through Rated Driving and it has been nothing but exceptional!

I had very limited availability, but Kevin and the team worked around everything to get it sorted. I started with no confidence and hardly any experience — and in just five weeks, I passed my first test with ONE minor!

My instructor was absolutely amazing. I can’t fault a single thing. From nervous to fully confident and safe on the road in a matter of weeks — I’m so grateful!

  • 🗓️ Passed in just 5 weeks – with 1 minor
  • 📍 Hadn’t driven in 8 years before starting
  • Course arranged around limited availability
