Test tip of the month for Tonbridge

Many learners fail their manoeuvre because they rush it. They get concerned about keeping other road users waiting. It's good to be considerate about other road users, but on your test, you have got to go nice and slow so you have time to do all the observations needed. The faster you do the manoeuvre, the faster your observations should be. You know what to do - keep your speed slow so you have time to observe!

Useful driving test tip for Tonbridge

When you are on the independent driving part of the test, it's common to miss your mirrors and signalling when listening to and following the satnav. Remember, every time you hear a new direction, be prepared to check your mirrors and put a signal on if needed.

Frequently asked questions...

I'm pregnant, can I still have driving lessons?

Yes, you can. We have many pregnant women take their driving lessons with us every year who go on to successfully pass their driving tests. No one wants to get on the bus with a pushchair and 10 bags of shopping! Find out more about taking driving lessons when pregnant and taking the driving test.

What should I expect to happen on my first driving lesson in Tonbridge?

Your driving instructor in Tonbridge will come to meet you at a time and place that works well for you. They will introduce themselves and have a chat with you to find out a bit more about you and your driving experience. They will also check your eyesight and provisional driving licence.

They will tailor the driving lesson to your needs and your driving experience. If you are new to driving, they will take you to a quiet residential road in Tonbridge (a road like Baker Street would be ideal) where you can practice away from heavy traffic. There you will learn about the basic controls of the car, how to move off and stop, change gears, clutch control, how to turn left and right from a major to minor road and, if you are progressing quickly, how to emerge from an open T Junction.

If you have some experience under your belt, your driving instructor will ask you to take them on a drive around Tonbridge, likely in and around Higham Wood, where they can assess your abilities and what you may need to strengthen in order to be ready for your driving test. They will then build a lesson plan according to your specific needs and give you an idea of how many lessons they think you'll need to be test-ready.
