The Only National Driving
School With An Overall 5 Star Rating

Rating Stars

When it came to driving I was terrified on the roads but Chris was brilliant at making sure I kept calm and knew every aspect of each individual skill before progressing and it was exactly what I needed.

Can't believe I have passed my driving test after just 15 hours. Chris is a great instructor and i will recommend him to anyone who needs to pass their test.

I was a super nervous learner but thanks to Fazul I was able to switch to automatic and pass my test with ease.

Fazul is a great instructor and he helped me to smash my test after just 16 hours of lessons.

Best instructor that I could have had and if it wasn't for Chris I couldn't have passed on my first try

I had failed in a manual car twice, then I switched to Fazul in his auto car and he helped me to calm my nerves and discover the best way to drive moving forward.

It feels amazing to have been able to have passed my test and now I can't wait to go and by my own car.

I came to Drive Johnsons who really helped me with my lessons. I magically passed my theory and my practical driving test.

I'm so pleased with drive johnsons driving school I passed my driving test first time my instructor was brilliant i couldn't have done it with out Chris.

Chris is a great instructor, I enjoyed my time learning to drive and thanks to him I passed my test. Couldn't have done it without him.

Test Tip Of The Month For Surbiton

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 Surbiton

You can fail your test for driving too slow or too fast. Don't make sudden changes if you sense the examiner is looking over at your speedo. Just gently come off the gas or gently apply more depending on if you are going too slow or fast.

Frequently asked questions...

The number of driving lessons each pupil needs can vary from person to person. Your driving instructor will be able to give you an idea of how many hours you're likely to need; however, this is only an estimation. What we can guarantee is that you will pass in as little time as possible and, unlike many other driving schools, we will not long the process out to get more money from you. As this is such a common question, we have written an article which will hopefully be able to give you some idea of how many driving lessons you need.

On your first driving lesson in Surbiton, your driving instructor will come to meet you at a time and place that is convenient for you. They will have an introductory chat with you to get to know you a bit better and find out about your previous driving experience. They will also do an eyesight check and check your provisional licence to ensure that you are legally able to drive.

If you have had little to no driving experience, like many of our learners, your driving instructor in Surbiton will begin your driving lesson in a quiet area of Surbiton, such as Alpha Road. During this, you will cover the basic car controls, moving off and stopping, clutch control, the different pedals and how to steer. You may also start practising turning left and right from a major to minor road, and emerging from an open T Junction.

Should you have had some driving lessons/more driving experience, your driving instructor will likely ask you to take them on a drive around Surbiton so that they can see your driving skills. They will then be able to see where your strengths lie and where you may need to improve in order to be test-ready. Following this, your instructor will be able to build a lesson planned specifically tailored to you and your needs, as well as give you an idea of how many driving lessons you will need to be ready for your driving test.

Rest assured, whatever experience level you are at, your driving instructor in Surbiton will ensure that your driving lessons are tailored to you and your requirements.
