Test tip of the month for Wemyss Bay

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, then stalling, and another is moving off with the handbrake still on or slightly on - especially on hills.

Useful driving test tip for Wemyss Bay Show more

Useful driving test tip for Wemyss Bay

Many learners fail their manoeuvre because they rush it. They get concerned about keeping other road users waiting. It's good to be considerate of 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!

Frequently asked questions...

What happens on my first driving lesson in Wemyss Bay?

Your driving instructor in Wemyss Bay 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. 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.
