If you\u2019re thinking about learning to drive<\/a>, one of the first things you\u2019ll want to know is how many lessons you\u2019re likely to need in order to pass your driving test – particularly if you’re working to a budget.<\/p>\n

According to the Driving Standards Agency<\/a>, an average of 47 hours of lessons and 22 hours of private practice is required to get through the test, at an average cost of \u00a324 per lesson (this varies according to location). There are two parts to the driving test \u2013 the theory (\u00a331) and the practical test (\u00a362) – and you need to pass both to obtain a licence.<\/p>\n

Happily, there are things you can to reduce the overall cost of learning to drive, such as booking block lessons (some schools will offer a discount) and getting plenty of practice under the supervision of a friend or relative. This will help consolidate what you have learned with your instructor and build your confidence on the road; nerves can be a problem for novice drivers but it\u2019s important to relax and not to worry if you make mistakes \u2013 after all, we were all learners once!<\/p>\n

It\u2019s also important to remember that every learner<\/a> driver is different; there are those who will sail through both tests on the first go, whilst others may take several attempts to pass and will therefore require further lessons in between. The good news is there is no limit to how often you can sit your driving test \u2013 although you need to pay the test fees each time.<\/p>\n

Learning to drive can certainly be an expensive venture, but qualified drivers will testify that it\u2019s a small price to pay for total independence and a useful skill for life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
