Learning to drive
The DSA quote that it takes about 40 hours on average for people to learn to drive, but some people take less time and some people take more. 40 lessons can be quite expensive, so if you can get practice in private, do so. However long you take, you will get there in the end if you stick at it!
During the lessons you will learn all the things that you need to pass your test. You will learn how to turn left and right, deal with big junctions, learn how to tackle roundabouts, dual carriageways, country roads, busier roads etc. You will also learn the maneuvers needed for your test, which are:
- Turn in the road, commonly known as three-point turn
- Parallel or reverse park
- Reverse around a corner
- Emergency stop
A less common maneuver you may be taught is the bay park, which depends on the test centre you will be using - they don't all require it. See the links and info below about the maneuvers.
