Top instructor and without Lee I'd have struggled to have passed my test with just 15 hours of lessons.

I lost my license 2 years ago as I had it revoked. I came to Drive Johnsons and did 6 hours with my instructor. I had to do an extended test and passed.

Lee is a great instructor and thanks to his teaching style I was able to pass my test after just 17 lessons, proper legend.

I can't believe that I passed my test after just 17 hours and right before the Christmas rush, I am so happy to be a qualified driver now. Thanks for everything Lee, top man!

I can't believe I passed my test first time with no minors, Lee is the best teacher out there!

I had a great time on my lessons with Lee, and I couldn't recommend him enough if you want to pass with confidence.

5/5 very easy to book and I got a lesson within a week, very happy with my instructor Lee!

Instructor helped me pass with 4 minors. Thank you

By far the best teacher I have had! Thanks to Lees lessons I always felt confident and in control when it came to learning.

I can't believe that I have passed my test first time and just before Christmas! It is incredible and I can never thank Lee enough.

By far the best instructor around and he always made time to help me develop and improve my driving whenever I needed to take lessons.

Learning to drive with Ben was brilliant. I was very in low in confidence and he encouraged me all the time, even when I almost killed us one lesson he was very calm about it. I certainly wasn't a natural but with Ben's excellent teaching he helped me pass. Thank you driveJohnson's and most importantly Ben!

Quality instructor and thanks to Lees teaching style I was able to pass quickly, confidently and without a hiccup on test day!

I passed my driving test today with just 1 fault. Many thanks to Ben I couldn't have done it without him.

Lee is a great instructor and thanks to learning with him I was able to pass fast and first time.

I'm currently learning with Ben and I am really enjoying my lessons at the mo. He makes the lesson fun and look forward to each lesson. Just got to pass my theory now and then I can book the test.

A great instructor who knows the best places to develop your skills with every lesson. I can't wait to get on the road in my own car now.

Lee is a great teacher and if it wasn't for his ability to adapt his lessons to my needs and faults I would still be struggling to learn.

I was super nervous as a driver but thanks to Lee my confidence grew after every lesson, and I was able to pass my test after just 27 hours of lessons and constant development happened during every lesson.

Can't believe that I passed my test before the new year! I am ecstatic and it is the best way to end the year!

Test tip of the month for Uckfield

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 Uckfield Show more

Useful driving test tip for Uckfield

You have a 1 in 4 chance of being asked to do the emergency stop. If you are asked to do this, the examiner will explain this to you when the car is stationary. You will most likely notice your examiner looking over their shoulder when the car is moving. This is to double-check it’s safe, so be ready. When they look over their shoulder, they are about to ask you to stop!

Frequently asked questions...

What will I learn on my first few driving lessons in Uckfield?

Under the supervision of your expert driving instructor, you will start your driving lessons in Uckfield practising driving in a quiet residential area, such as Campbell Close. Here, away from traffic, you will practise the controls of the car, moving off, stopping and changing gears. You will then move to busier roads to practise turning left from a major to minor road, turning right and emerging from T Junctions. Gradually, your driving instructor will increase your exposure to traffic and the trickier areas of Uckfield, for example the crossroads where New Town Road meets the B2102. Also, know that you will not be restricted to Uckfield itself. As soon as your instructor feels you are ready, they will take you out on the A roads around the town to practise faster driving and increasing your confidence.

I live in Uckfield. Where's my nearest driving test centre?

There aren't any driving test centres in Uckfield itself. However, you do have a few choices around half an hour's drive away, in Burgess Hill, Eastbourne and Tunbridge Wells. Our driving instructors in Uckfield know the test routes for each of these test centres, so rest assured that not having a test centre on your doorstep won't be a disadvantage to you.

I'm nervous about learning to drive in Uckfield and worried I won't be able to drive because of it. What can I do?

First off, please know that it is perfectly normal to feel nervous about learning to drive. We help thousands of learners to pass their test every year and we see it all the time.
