Useful driving test tip for Middlesbrough Show more

Useful driving test tip for Middlesbrough

Remember, when approaching big roundabouts that are relatively clear, you should be in 3rd gear or lower. If you are still in a higher gear with the clutch down, you are coasting. Change to a lower gear and continue to brake if necessary. Most big roundabouts should be 3rd gear. Most mini-roundabouts should be 2nd gear. This rule should serve you well most of the time.

Frequently asked questions...

What happens on my first driving lesson in Middlesbrough?

Your driving instructor in Middlesbrough will ask you about your previous experience. If you have not had any previous lessons, that is fine as many people have not had any previous experience. During this chat, your driving instructor will also go over the basics of the car, and they will do an eyesight check and check your provisional licence.

Once this is done, your instructor will begin your driving lesson in a quiet area. They will cover moving off and stopping, clutch control, the different pedals and how to steer. You will always begin in a quiet area away from cars and other road users to learn at your own pace.

I live in Middlesbrough but it would be easier to have my driving lessons straight from my work, which is in Stockton-on-Tees. Would it be possible to be picked up in Stockton-on-Tees and dropped off in Middlesbrough?

Yes this should be fine. At driveJohnson's, we offer driving lessons in Stockton-on-Tees as well as Middlesbrough and, in our local network of instructors, we have driving instructors that cover both areas.

When you call our bookings line to book on, just let the Booking Coordinator know that you need this arranged. We will make sure that we give you a driving instructor who can accommodate this.
