Your Practical Driving Test in Nottingham

Your Driving Instructor Will help prepare you to become a safe confident driver and along the way to achieving this standard you will also become well prepared for your Driving Test

Wether you are a total novice, already had some driving lessons or wanting to become a more advanced driver 
"Pro Active Driver Training" driving lessons are designed and planned round you as an individual, we recognise that everyone finds different things more or less challenging than others and the progress of your own driving lessons will reflect your skill level

Here is a description of what is required for the Successfull Practical Test
The first driving lesson will be to introduce the pupil to the controls and the basics of driving, 
but the rest of the driving lessons are usually held on the road with the learner driving the car
and carrying out manoeuvres.  Before the lesson, the instructor will plan the lesson and a route
relative to the pupils experience. 
During the driving lesson, they monitor the learner, the road and other vehicles very carefully. 
The car will have dual controls so that the driving instructor can stop if necessary.

Subjects covered will include:

- Controls of the car.
- Moving off & stopping safely.
- Angled / uphill / downhill start.
- Turning left & right from major to minor roads.
- Emerging at T Junctions.
- Crossroads.
- Roundabouts.
- Pedestrian crossings.
- Meet, cross & overtake other traffic.
- Turn in the road.
- Left hand reverse.
- Reverse park.
- Emergency stop.
- Show Me / Tell Me.

The subjects will not necessarily be covered in that exact order as much will depend on the local area,
the instructors style and the pupils needs.  Also, the lesson plan could change during the lesson if, say,
the pupil is experiencing difficulty in a particular area then the lesson may be diverted to concentrate on that.

Additionally, driving skills such as clutch control, steering, use of mirrors, road positioning,
speed and anticipation will be taught and assessed.

You will also be given tuition and practice on town driving, rural driving & dual carriageway driving.

Knowledge of the Highway Code will also be taught and tested during the driving lessons.
When the pupil and Instructor agree that they are ready for the test, they apply for a driving test date
