Local Driving Tips
Expect short trips onto busier roads when you head towards Coventry. Practise junctions and roundabouts close to the town centre, and get comfortable with multi-lane approaches. Work on independent driving for 10 minutes, as test routes often include town centre navigation. Keep an eye out for parked cars on residential roads and for bus lanes at peak times. Take a few lessons that start or end near the test centre to get used to local traffic flows.

Compare lesson packages as well as hourly rates, and ask about pass-rate experience for the local test centre. Expect average prices around £40 per hour.
