Do you teach in a manual or an automatic car?

How many driving lessons will I need?
It depends on you. The DVSA says people who pass have had around 45 hours of lessons and 20 hours of private practice on average. Regular weekly lessons, with practice in between if you can get it, get most learners there sooner. Mark will tell you honestly how you are progressing and when you are ready to book your test. Learning to drive, step by step
How old do I need to be, and what do I need before my first lesson?
You can start driving lessons at 17. You need a provisional licence, which you can apply for from 15 years and 9 months, and you must be able to read a number plate from 20 metres, with glasses or contact lenses if you wear them. Bring your licence to your first lesson. Apply for a provisional licence on GOV.UK
Where will I take my driving test?
Most RightMark learners take their practical test at Telford Test Centre on Horton Wood (TF1 7FR), with Shrewsbury as an alternative. Lessons cover the roads and roundabouts around the test centre, so you will know them well before test day. What to expect at Telford Test Centre
I already have a licence. Can I book a refresher?
Yes. There are 2 hour and 5 hour refresher sessions for drivers who have passed but not driven for a while, and a 2 hour motorway lesson for new drivers who want to use the M54 with confidence. Refresher and motorway prices
