How Many Driving Lessons Will I Need?
If you're about to start learning to drive a very common concern is how many lessons it’ll take to pass and how much the whole process will cost.
The average learner has an average of 67 hours behind the wheel: made up of 45 hours with an ADI )Approved Driving Instructor) and 22 hours of private practice with a family member or friend according to the DVSA (The drivers and vehicles standards agency)
The amount of lessons you will need to pass your driving test will depend on a range of factors such as your previous driving experience, your age and your understanding of the roads
How much will it cost?
To learn to drive you realistically need to budget about £2000. If we take the above guidance of 67 hours behind the wheel, below are some of the essentials most learner drivers will need to get their full UK driving licence
