According to the DVSA, it takes an average of 45 hours of driving tuition to get up to test standard.

This is a one-hour lesson where the instructor will honestly and critically assess your level of driving ability. At the end, they’ll recommend you the course best suited to your needs. You can book a course assessment online or over the phone for just £30.

It is usually possible to add more hours onto your course if required. To add extra hours during your course, get in contact with your Booking Agent.

The final hour of your PassDrivingFast course will be saved for the practical test as standard. For example, our 48 hour course includes 47 hours of lessons, plus the practical test as your final hour.
