Local Driving Tips
Start lessons on quieter residential streets off Egham High Street to build clutch and steering control. Move on to the A30 and A328 for junction practice and to get comfortable with higher speeds. Spend time on approaches to Runnymede roundabout and M25 junction 13, both common test route features. Watch for busy pedestrian crossings near Royal Holloway and the station during peak times. Practice left and right turns from slip-roads, they come up on local tests.

Getting Started
Apply for your provisional driving licence online before booking lessons. Book your theory and hazard perception tests early so you can work towards them alongside lessons.
