Local Driving Tips
Expect narrow, undulating country lanes around Fillongley that need careful speed control and good observation. Practice slow junctions and right-turns from minor roads, as these come up on local routes. Spend time on roundabouts and multi-lane approaches when you go into Nuneaton, as exam routes include them. Try lessons at different times of day so you can handle both quiet lanes and busier town traffic. Parking and bay manoeuvres are worth extra focus, especially before your test appointment.
