Practice on the B1255 into Bridlington, it gives a good mix of coastal bends and junctions. Watch for strong crosswinds near Flamborough Head, they upset steering on light vehicles. Summer brings tourist parking and pedestrians around the cliffs and Bridlington Quay, so slow down and scan early. Rural lanes are narrow with passing places, give way to farm vehicles and be ready to reverse safely. Use the A165 junctions when practising faster merges before your test in Bridlington.

With only one instructor listed in Flamborough, start by checking their lesson availability and experience with local test routes. Ask if they cover Bridlington tests and how they handle coastal driving conditions. If you need more choice, look for instructors based in Bridlington or Scarborough.
