How many driving lessons do I need to pass in Durham?

According to DVSA statistics, UK learners require an average of 45 hours of professional tuition from an Approved Driving Instructor (ADI) alongside 22 hours of private practice. Taking an intensive driving crash course in Durham can condense this timeframe into 1 to 2 weeks.

Should I learn in a manual or automatic car in Durham?

If you pass in an automatic car in Durham, your UK driving licence will restrict you to automatic vehicles only. Passing in a manual car grants a full licence covering both manual and automatic cars. However, automatic lessons are increasingly popular in Durham due to heavy city traffic and simpler hill-start controls.
