Learning to drive here gives you quiet country lanes and short bursts of town driving around Station Road and the village centre. You will meet local traffic such as tractors and cyclists as you learn. There are only three local instructors, so expect a personal, small-scale teaching scene.

Local Driving Tips
Start lessons on quiet streets like Station Road before tackling the High Street. Expect narrow lanes with occasional farm vehicles once you leave the village. Practice junctions at the village centre and get used to single-lane bridges near the River Arun. Watch for cyclists around the reserve at Pulborough Brooks and for sudden changes of surface after rain. When heading to Worthing for a test, rehearse dual-carriageway joining and roundabout exits on longer runs.

Getting Started

Book and pass your theory test, then arrange mock practicals on routes that include longer runs toward Worthing or the nearby A-road. When ready, book the practical at Worthing or an alternative nearby centre and bring your theory pass and provisional licence on test day.
