Test tip of the month for Benfleet

Be sure to secure the car first so it doesn't roll into a new road or roll back. Then restart quickly and safely. Check it's safe to move away again as well. If somebody is going round you, you may want to wait for them to pass first.

Useful driving test tip for Benfleet

With so many potholes on the roads today, make sure you check your mirrors before you go around them. Try to identify the potholes more than 100 metres away, check your interior and door mirror in good time, then recheck them just before you change direction.

Frequently asked questions...

What will happen on my first driving lesson in Benfleet?

Your driving instructor in Benfleet will come to meet you at a time and place that is convenient for you. They will introduce themselves and have a quick chat to find out a bit more about you and your prior experience. They will also check your eyesight and provisional licence.

It will then be time for you to get behind the steering wheel. Your instructor will take you to a quiet road in Benfleet, somewhere like Leighton Road, where you can begin away from other traffic and distractions. They will teach you the basic car controls, how to steer, moving off and stopping, changing gears, turning left and right and emerging from T Junctions. Your instructor will tailor the lesson to your needs so you will progress at a pace you feel comfortable with.

I live in Benfleet. Where is my closest driving test centre?

There isn't a test centre in Benfleet itself. However, your nearest test centre is just 10 minutes away by car in Basildon. Tilbury test centre is also only about 15 minutes away if you take the A13, which makes it a popular second choice for our learners in the area. There are two other test centres under half an hour away, in Southend and Brentwood.
