subject: Driving schools Manchester from scottdixondrivinginstructor.co.uk [print this page] Manchester is a great city, lots to do, great student life, with some of the best restaurants, bars and clubs. Although the transport is very good, there is nothing better than having your own car. Being a student in Manchester while your family and friends are in London or elsewhere can be tough, so having your own car can be a blessing. If you don't have a driving licence you will need to do some driving lessons not to mention your theory test and then your practical.
Where to Start
If you don't have a provisional licence, you will need one before you can start doing your driving lessons. You can pick up a DVLA application form from any large post office. You will need a passport sized photo, and you will also have to provide your birth certificate or some other form of identification. You will have to pay a standard fee for your provisional licence, once you have provided all the relevant information, send it off using the envelope provided.
Look for a Driving School
Driving lessons can be expensive, so it is always best to make sure you get what you pay for by getting a fully qualified well recommended driving instructor. Make sure that the instructor you pick is a driving standards agency approved driving instructor. It is always best to use a qualified driving instructor rather than a friend or relative. You can look online for a driving instructor in your area or you can find one in your local paper. Another way of finding a good driving instructor is by asking around and getting a recommended instructor.
How much do Driving Lessons Cost?
It all depends on the driving school, but some offer discounts for block bookings. Therefore it does work out cheaper, if you book your lessons in advance and pay up front instead of individually. However if you are a student in Manchester or any other city, then it may not be possible to pay upfront. You can still pay on a per lesson basis, but in the long run it does work out more expensive. Driving lessons do range from 12 per 1`hour lesson and upwards.
What will you learn in Driving Lessons?
You will learn a wide range of driving techniques, including, parallel parking, turn in the road, emergency stop and you will generally learn how to move the car and turn left and right. You will also learn how to change gears, where to change gears and when to change gears. It will feel like a lot to take in at first, however once you get used to it, you will find that everything falls into place.
When can you Take Your Test?
You can only take your test, once your instructor feels that you are ready and capable of driving a car without instruction. You will have to pass your theory test before you can book your practical test however. Once you have studied for your theory test, booked it and passed it. You can then start working towards your practical test.
