Local Driving Tips
Start lessons on quiet residential streets to nail clutch control and junctions. Progress to the main route into Grangemouth to practise roundabouts and short dual-carriageway sections. Watch for periods of heavy traffic, especially during shift-change times at local workplaces, and practice lane discipline. Keep an eye on wet surfaces and reduced grip in colder months, and practise stopping distances.
