⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 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!”

Public Transport Guidance
Getting to Weymouth for your intensive driving course.
Travelling by Train
For learner drivers heading to Weymouth for an intensive driving course, navigating public transport is straightforward. Weymouth is well-connected by train, making your journey to Weymouth stress-free.
If you’re travelling from towns along the south coast like Bournemouth or Poole, South Western Railway offers direct services to Weymouth. Key stops on this route include Christchurch, Bournemouth, Poole, Wareham, and Dorchester South before arriving at Weymouth. From further afield, such as Bristol or Bath, Great Western Railway (GWR) provides services to Weymouth, often via stations like Westbury and Yeovil Pen Mill. CrossCountry services historically ran to Weymouth, but current direct services are limited; you’ll likely connect via a major hub like Southampton Central or Bournemouth for your onward journey to Weymouth.
For the best experience travelling to Weymouth, aim for Off-Peak hours, typically outside of weekday rush hours (7:00 AM to 10:00 AM and 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM) and anytime on weekends. This avoids busier trains and can often secure cheaper tickets to Weymouth. You can book your train tickets via Trainline or MyTrainTicket.

Travelling by Bus
For learner drivers heading to Weymouth for an intensive driving course, navigating public transport is straightforward. From Dorchester, frequent First Wessex buses, such as the 10, connect directly to Weymouth, with a journey time of approximately 27 minutes from Acland Road to Lodmoor Hill. Alternatively, the Damory Coaches CR8 service also runs from Dorchester to Weymouth via Littlemoor.
If you’re travelling from Portland, the First Wessex Service 1 bus offers a direct route to Weymouth, departing every 30 minutes and taking around 21-22 minutes from Portland Castle or Mereside to Magistrates Court or Bus Garage in Weymouth.
From Bridport, the First Wessex X53 Jurassic Coaster service provides a scenic route to Weymouth, taking approximately 55 minutes from Natwest Bank to Fiveways. The X53 also serves areas like Abbotsbury and Chickerell on its way to Weymouth.
For those coming from Blandford, the Damory Coaches CR8 (formerly X12) offers a direct service to Weymouth, stopping at locations like Puddletown and Dorchester.
To avoid traffic, especially during summer and school holidays, aim to travel to Weymouth outside of peak morning (7 AM – 9 AM) and evening (4 PM – 6 PM) hours. You can purchase bus tickets directly from the bus operators or explore options on First Bus or redBus.

Where to Start?
Looking to learn to drive in Weymouth? Whether you prefer automatic or manual, there are plenty of flexible lesson options available.
🤔 Wondering How Many Lessons It’ll Take?
You’ll hear numbers like 40 hours of lessons and 20 hours of private practice. But the truth? There’s no magic number.
Some learners feel test-ready in 30 hours. Others need more time to build confidence behind the wheel. What really matters isn’t the total - it’s the consistency.
The more often you drive, the faster everything clicks. And when you combine solid instructor lessons with regular private practice? That’s when real progress happens.
Your journey won’t look like anyone else’s. And that’s exactly how it should be.
🧐 How to Prepare for Your First Driving Lesson
Getting ready for your first driving lesson is an exciting step - and a bit of preparation can help you feel more confident and relaxed on the day. Here’s a simple guide to help you make the most of it:
1. Check Your Provisional Licence
Before your lesson, make sure you have a valid provisional driving licence. Your instructor will need to see it to confirm you’re legally allowed to drive.
2. Get Familiar with the Basics
Take a few minutes to learn the basic layout of a car - the pedals, gear stick, steering wheel, and mirrors. Watching a short video or reading a beginner’s guide can help you feel more prepared.
3. Choose Comfortable Clothing
Wear clothes that allow you to move freely and flat-soled shoes that give you good control of the pedals. Avoid anything bulky or restrictive.
4. Bring the Essentials
Have your provisional licence with you, along with glasses or contact lenses if you need them to drive. A bottle of water is also a good idea to stay hydrated.
5. Get a Good Night’s Sleep
Feeling well-rested will help you stay focused and alert throughout your lesson.
6. Brush Up on the Highway Code
A quick review of key road signs, speed limits, and basic driving rules can give you a boost in confidence before you get behind the wheel. [download The Highway Code 2025 PDF]
7. Keep Your Expectations Realistic
Your first lesson is all about getting familiar with the car and starting to build your skills. Don’t worry about getting everything perfect - take it one step at a time.
With the right preparation and a calm mindset, you’ll be off to a great start.
🙏 What to Expect on Your First Driving Lesson
Your first driving lesson is a key milestone - it's where everything begins. The goal is to help you feel comfortable, introduce you to the car, and give you your first taste of driving. Here’s what typically happens during your first session:
1. Meet Your Instructor
You’ll meet your DVSA-approved driving instructor, who will check your provisional licence and have a quick chat about any experience or knowledge you already have.
2. Go Through the Cockpit Drill (DSSSM)
Before driving, you'll go through a quick safety routine to get set up properly:
- Doors - Make sure all doors are securely closed.
- Seat - Adjust your seat so you can reach the pedals comfortably.
- Steering - Adjust the steering wheel to suit your position.
- Seatbelt - Buckle up for safety.
- Mirrors - Position your mirrors for a clear view around the car.
3. Learn the Basic Car Controls
Your instructor will show you the key controls, including:
- Accelerator, brake, and clutch (if you're learning in a manual)
- Gear stick, handbrake, and indicators
- Other essentials like lights and wipers
4. Practice Moving Off and Stopping
You’ll start with the basics:
- How to start the engine safely
- Checking mirrors and blind spots
- Moving off smoothly and bringing the car to a controlled stop
5. Drive on Quiet Roads
If you're ready, your instructor may take you to a quiet area to practice simple driving skills like steering, gear changes, and stopping calmly.
6. Feedback and Next Steps
At the end of the lesson, your instructor will talk you through what went well and what to work on next time. This feedback helps you build confidence and track your progress.
Getting You Connected
Once your place is secured with a deposit, we’ll aim to match you with a DVSA-registered driving instructor within 14 days. If we can’t, we’ll refund you - no chasing, no questions.

Top Tip for Intensive Driving Courses 👨🏫
“Intensive driving courses can be a great way to learn quickly, but they’re not a shortcut to safe driving. I always remind my pupils: it’s not about cramming—it’s about retaining. Make sure you’re still getting variety in your practice: different roads, weather, and traffic conditions.
Also, be honest with yourself. If you need a little more time to build confidence, take it. It’s better to be fully ready than to rush into a test. A well-paced intensive course, combined with structured learning, can help you pass faster—and drive smarter for life.”

Master Weymouth’s Roads with an Intensive Driving Course
Dreaming of cruising along Weymouth Bay with your full driving licence in hand? An intensive driving course in Weymouth could be your fast track to achieving that freedom. Rated Driving offers comprehensive intensive driving courses designed to get you test-ready quickly and confidently, right here in our beautiful seaside town.
Weymouth provides an ideal setting for intensive driving lessons. Its diverse road network offers a fantastic learning environment, from navigating the bustling town centre to mastering quieter residential streets. You’ll gain invaluable experience on main arteries like the A354 Weymouth Way and Westwey Road, which connect different parts of Weymouth and lead to the wider Dorset area. For those trickier manoeuvres and developing clutch control, your instructor will guide you through areas with mini-roundabouts, such as those found on Dorchester Road and Newstead Road. You might even tackle the often-discussed “Asda junction” (formerly the Harbour roundabout), a traffic light junction that replaced a roundabout and presents a good challenge for learners.
Beyond the practicalities, learning to drive in Weymouth means you’ll become familiar with the local area, making your post-test driving even more enjoyable. Imagine the independence of driving to local gems like the historic Nothe Fort, with its stunning 360-degree views of the Jurassic Coast. Or perhaps a relaxing drive to Weymouth Beach after a successful lesson, taking in the fresh sea air. You could even plan future trips to the SEA LIFE Centre Weymouth or explore the tranquil RSPB Weymouth Wetlands at Radipole Lake.
When it comes to the official tests, Weymouth is well-equipped. The nearest practical driving test centre is located in Weymouth itself. While a specific GOV.UK link for the Weymouth test centre isn’t readily available, you can find general information and search for your nearest centre on the GOV.UK website. For your theory test, the Weymouth Theory Test Centre is conveniently situated at Pearson Professional Centre, Phoenix House, St Nicholas Street, Weymouth, Dorset, DT4 8AA. You can book your theory test and access revision materials through the GOV.UK theory test finder page.
Choosing an intensive driving course in Weymouth with Rated Driving means you’re not just learning to pass a test; you’re gaining the skills and confidence to navigate the roads of Weymouth and beyond. Our local instructors are dedicated to providing a top-quality learning experience, tailored to your needs.

Dedicated and goal oriented driving instructor who has a passion in his job

Dedicated and goal oriented driving instructor who has a passion in his job. Sergiu is patient and gives you confidence behind the wheel. He doesn’t only teach you how to pass the test but he also teaches you how to be a safe and confident driver on the road . Keep up the good work Sergiu.
Sergiu however, is a phenomenal instructor
16/07/2024
People say that a certain percentage of the human population is not able and suited for driving. I always thought that this was true and about me. Sergiu however, is a phenomenal instructor and under his tuition I was able to become a careful and considerate driver, who passed her practical driving exam from the first go. Sergiu understood my limitations and with lots of written material and practical repetition we were able to achieve the impossible. I strongly recommend Sergiu to anyone struggling with driving and to those who don’t struggle with it at all. He is not expensive and great value for money too.
Sergiu is absolutely brilliant at his job!
16/07/2024
Sergiu is absolutely brilliant at his job! He helped my friend Sofia from Cambridge to Pass her driving test first time. Sergiu is very experienced and passionate about his job. Extremely efficient and straight to the point, fixing issues and carefully building his knowledge and skills. My other friend Toma had refresher lessons with Sergiu and build up his confidence on the motorway and I now feel very comfortable with Toma in the car. On behalf of Sofia and Toma, Sergiu is the best Instructor they ever had. I absolutely recommend him.
