Local Driving Tips
Start lessons in quieter residential areas before moving to busier routes used by local traffic. Practice parking and bay manoeuvres where streets are narrow and cars are often parked close together. Build confidence on longer runs to nearby towns so you know how to handle junctions during a test. Book mock tests with your instructor that mirror Coventry test conditions. Drive at different times to get used to morning and evening commuter traffic. Keep theory work current so you can book a practical test as soon as you feel ready.
