I was super nervous when it came to learning to drive but thanks to Dean Fletcher and Drive Johnson I now have a pink licence and can't wait to go on my first road trip.

“

I passed first time!! :D Can’t wait to get on the road now and to go on my own roadtrips.

“

Best instructor in Redditch and if you want to pass fast make sure you choose to learn with Dean.

“

Loved every minute of my lessons, would recommend Drivejohnsons to anyone who needs to learn to drive.

“

I had the best experience with Dean and if it wasn't for his great teaching i wouldn't have passed my test first time and with only three minors.

“

I had over 50 hours with another school but in just 10 hours with drive johnson I passed with only 1 minor!!! Thank you for your help Dean!

“

My instructor Dean has been fantastic and he is always on time and makes our lessons enjoying and most importantly very informative

“

I was reccomended to learn with Dean from a friend and thanks to him I was able to pass my test before I move back from uni and I am able to drive myself home in my new car.

Test Tip Of The Month For Bilston

A classic question is: what happens if you go the wrong way on your test? The answer is not a lot. Just try to do it safely and you will be fine. Many learners will swerve at short notice, realising they are in the wrong lane and fail for the changing lanes part. If the examiner can see you have time to get into the correct lane, they may repeat the instruction or use hand signals. They won't repeat or re-enforce the direction if it isn't safe or there isn't enough time. You will not receive a driving fault for safely going in the wrong direction on your test.

Useful Driving Test Tip For Bilston

It’s common when turning left at a blind T-junction to look right and only look left when the car goes into a new road. You will often get away with this but, now and again, something will be there, like a parked car or a pedestrian about to walk out. On your test, you’ll fail and, in real life, you’ll have a severe accident. Be sure to do the minimum observations for T-junctions: right, left, right and then look into the road before you emerge into it!

On your first driving lesson, your driving instructor will do an eyesight check, check your provisional licence and find out a bit more about your previous driving experience. Then they will take you to a quiet residential area in Bilston, somewhere like Ambergate Road, to practise behind the wheel. You will look at how to steer, move off, stop and control the clutch, as well as how to use the different pedals. You may also practise turning left from a major to minor road, depending on how fast you progress. Rest assured, you will move at a pace you feel comfortable with.
