Local Driving Tips
Start lessons on quiet residential streets to build clutch control and smooth hill starts. Practise reversing into bays and using mirrors on the town centre streets so you are comfortable with parked cars and narrow roads.

Avoid peak school run times during lessons and practise in wet conditions to handle slippery valley roads.
