Learning to drive with Zaff was the best decision ever! He's so friendly, professional and knowledgable. Learnt lots every lessons and learned really fast. I was ready to take my test after 22 hours and I passed first time. :)

Thank you Zaff for everything, so happy to have passed my driving test. Came to drivejohnsons with no experience whatsoever and passed after 28 hours which was so much faster than expected.

I had amazing lessons with Zaff every time he taught me it was incredible, and he was super professional and always gave me advice that continued to develop my skills.

Had automatic driving lessons with Zaff in Preston. Would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for an instructor. He does manual too which is great as a started with manual and then switched to automatic but didn't have to change instructors!

I was struggling to learn in a manual so I switched to automatic and never looked back as I instantly felt super comfortable and got to pass on my first try.

I loved learning with Zaff, we got to talk about sports and current events and it helped me to pass and get my confidence and driving on track.

I was given Zaff's number from a friend, and thanks to learning with Zaff, I passed first time and got to pass with only 10 hours of lessons.

I am an older learner who never drove but have had to due to a family issue. I am so thankful that I was partnered with Zaff Hussain as he was incredibly helpful in breaking down driving and growing my confidence every step of the way.

Zaff is a top driving instructor, helped me learn fast and pass 1st time.

Fantastic teacher and he always helped me to break down my manoeuvres and ace my test.

Test Tip Of The Month For Preston

Moving off is in the top 10 reasons for failing a driving test. A couple of classic reasons are: being in the wrong gear when stationary at lights or a junction and then stalling; and another is moving off with the handbrake still on or slightly on, especially on hills.

Useful Driving Test Tip For Preston

In busy towns and cities, look out for pedestrians near the road. Try not to encourage them to cross by slowing down too much. Definitely don’t wave them across the road. Pedestrians only have priority if they are already on the road or if they are at a pedestrian crossing and it’s their priority.
