Local Driving Tips
Start lessons early in the day to avoid the busiest shopping periods on Wood Green High Road and near Turnpike Lane station. Practise dealing with buses and bus lanes, and learn to judge gaps at the junctions that feed onto the North Circular. Watch for cyclists on narrow streets and expect parked cars to reduce lane width in residential areas. Use quieter side streets for slow-speed manoeuvres and reversing practice. Get comfortable with lane discipline, as test routes often include multi-lane approaches.
