Test tip of the month for Cheltenham

If you stall on your test, try not to panic. You won't fail for stalling the car, but you may fail for how you deal or cope with the stall. For example, if you stall, panic and let the car roll back you will fail. If you stall, secure the car with footbrake or handbrake, restart and move away safely you will receive just a driving fault.

Frequently asked questions...

I live in Bishops Cleeve near Cheltenham. Do you offer driving lessons in my area?

Yes, we do. We are pleased to have a brilliant network of driving instructors in Cheltenham and the surrounding areas offering driving lessons in Bishops Cleeve, along with other villages. If you would like to book driving lessons in Bishops Cleeve, simply give our friendly Bookings Team a call and we would be very happy to set this up for you.

What can I expect to learn in my first few driving lessons in Cheltenham?

On your first driving lesson in Cheltenham, your driving instructor will take you to a quiet area in the town where you can practice behind the wheel without interruptions from traffic, somewhere like Sedgewick Gardens. Here, you will learn the basic controls of the car, moving off and stopping and perhaps do some steering exercises.

Once you've mastered these, your driving instructor in Cheltenham will have you driving around some quiet roads, perhaps in The Reddings or Springbank, where you can practice turning left and right from major to minor roads, navigating mini roundabouts and manoeuvres.

Only when your driving instructor feels you are confident enough will they have you tackling the busy A roads that snake around the town and the heavy traffic in the town centre. You will no doubt practice dual carriageway driving on the A40 and motorway driving on the M5. Your driving instructor will also have you practising all the popular test routes for the Cheltenham driving test centre so that you have confidence that you will do brilliantly on test day.

Do you provide automatic driving lessons in Cheltenham?

Yes, we have a fantastic team of automatic driving instructors in Cheltenham and the surrounding areas. All of our automatic driving instructors in Cheltenham are observed by a company trainer at least twice a year as well as the DVSA’s standards check, so you can rest assured that their teaching is of the highest calibre. Many of our automatic learners feed back to us that they felt relaxed behind the wheel during their lessons, so if you struggled with manual, our automatic driving lessons in Cheltenham may be perfect for you.

To book your automatic lessons, just call our friendly Enquiries and Bookings Team on 0330 124 4877.

I'm pregnant. Can I still take driving lessons?

In short, yes you can as long as you are feeling well enough and aren't taking medication affecting your ability to drive. We help many pregnant women to learn to drive every year, some just a few weeks before their due date. To find out more, please check out our guide to learning to drive whilst pregnant here.

Do you offer driving lessons in Cheltenham on the weekends?

Yes, we have driving instructors in Cheltenham with availability on weekends. If you would prefer to have your driving lessons then as it works best with your schedule, just let our Bookings Team know and they will pair you with an instructor offering driving lessons then.
