Intensive Driving Courses are a great way to learn to drive. In the space of a week it's possible to go from a complete beginner to passing your driving test and getting on the road safely. Learning to drive is much more than learning how to control the car and negotiate the roads for 40 minutes whilst an Examiner watches you. To be a good, safe driver you need to build up your experience behind the wheel. An Intensive Driving Course gives you that supervised experience so that when you are "flying solo" you have the knowledge and skills to continue to learn to drive by yourself.
Having said the above, Intensive Driving Courses aren't for everyone. You will be in the driving seat for 6 hours per day for up to six days - this is both physically and mentally demanding. The course requires a great deal of commitment both financially and personally. You only get what you pay for and what you are prepared to put into it. But, if you make the effort the results are fantastic.
When choosing your course you need to be realistic! most people starting from no experience to 12 hours will benefit from a 36 or 30 Hour course. If you have had more experience a 24 hour course is more suitable. An 18 hour course is really only suitable for people with 25 hours of experience. There are lots of anecdotal stories of passing your test in 10 hours, but there are lots of factual stories of people passing their test and crashing in the first week. It's better to take more hours because the more experience you can gain the safer and more competent you will be.
As with any other way of learning to drive, there is no such thing as a "guaranteed pass." You as the pupil are solely responsible for your actions on the driving test. What we can do for you is provide clear instruction and in depth knowledge of what you need to do. Help you to face your nerves and worries about driving. Provide you with a safe environment that will allow you to learn, practice and develop your driving skills. But most importantly help you develop a positive attitude to driving based on a strong sense of safety and courtesy towards other road users.
