Test tip of the month for Bolsover

If you notice the examiner marking something on the marking sheet, don't panic! There are other elements of the test that they need to mark, which doesn't mean you have received a recorded fault. They have to mark down when a manoeuvre, hill start, angled moving off, and more are completed.

Useful driving test tip for Bolsover

You have a 1 in 3 chance of being asked to do the emergency stop. If you are asked to do this, the examiner will explain this to you when the car is stationary. You will most likely notice your examiner looking over their shoulder when the car is moving. This is to double-check it’s safe, so be ready. When they look over their shoulder, they are about to ask you to stop!

Frequently asked questions...

Do you have any automatic driving instructors in Bolsover?

Yes, we have several automatic driving instructors in Bolsover who cover Bolsover and the surrounding areas. We personally choose all of our automatic driving instructors at driveJohnson's, and they all come with a grade-A rating.

If you want to start automatic driving lessons in Bolsover, you can request this when booking with us. We try to accommodate any request you have and, thanks to our years of service, we will be able to find the best instructor for you.

What will happen on my first driving lesson in Bolsover?

We are often asked by our learners what to expect on their first driving lesson. Your driving instructor in Bolsover will come to meet you at the prearranged place and time that suits you. They will have a chat with you to get to know you a bit better, break the ice and find out about your driving experience. They will also need to check your eyesight and provisional driving licence to ensure that you are able to drive, so do remember to bring your provisional licence with you.

If you have had no prior driving experience, like many of our learners in Bolsover, your driving instructor will drive you to a quiet place in the town to practice away from traffic, somewhere like Nether View. There you will go over the basic controls of the car, steering, clutch control, moving off and stopping. You may also cover turning left from a major to minor road.

Should you have some driving experience, you will likely take a drive around Bolsover so that your driving instructor can assess your test-readiness. They will then build a lesson plan around your specific needs and cover the areas you need to work on.

At the end of your first driving lesson, your driving instructor will give you a quick debrief on what went well, what needs improvement, what you will be covering next lesson and anything you might want to look at in the meantime outside of lessons.

I live in Bolsover - where can I take my driving test?

Taking driving lessons in Bolsover, there aren't any driving test centres on your doorstep. However, there are driving test centres in Chesterfield and Ashfield that are about 20 minutes away from Bolsover. Worksop and Sheffield Handsworth test centres are also within half an hour's drive.

We find that the Chesterfield test centre tends to be the most popular for our learners in Bolsover but, depending on waiting times, any of the above test centres would make a good choice.

Our driving instructors in Bolsover know all the popular test routes for these test centres. Before making a decision, we would recommend discussing your options with them to see which they think would be the best choice for your test day.
