⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I can’t recommend Humphreys Driving School enough! I passed my driving test first time within just 4 weeks of lessons thanks to excellent instruction from Les. Les was patient, clear, and greatly supported my development in confidence whilst driving. Within just a few lessons my improvement was evident thanks to the tailored structure.

Les is a fantastic driving instructor who encouraged me and helped me pass my test! After having lessons with other instructors I lost hope for a long time but Les was super patient and funny and made learning to drive with less pressure! Thank you!!

Automatic Driving Test – What You Should Know

Passing your test in an automatic car means:

  • You’ll receive an automatic-only driving licence
  • You can legally drive automatic and electric vehicles
  • You won’t be licensed to drive manual cars unless you retake the test in a manual

For many learners, this is not a disadvantage — especially with the move towards electric vehicles.

Most learners are collected from home, but we can also arrange a nearby meeting point if that’s easier. Pickup details are confirmed when you get in touch.

2) How many automatic lessons will I need?

Everyone learns at a different pace. Many automatic learners progress more smoothly because there’s no clutch or gear coordination to master. We’ll move forward when you’re ready.

Yes — lesson frequency can be adapted to suit your availability, including more intensive options where possible.
