Local Driving Tips
Get comfortable on the A426, it carries most of the town traffic and has several busy junctions that test observation. Practice merging onto and off nearby motorways in longer lessons, so lane discipline becomes natural. Roundabouts around local shopping areas can be trickier than they look, so practise signalling and lane choice. Try mock tests that include routes into Leicester to build stamina for longer drives. Park and pull-away manoeuvres are often tested on quieter residential streets, so do those repeatedly.
