Congratulations Luke Byrne who chose us for their pretest driving lessons
I just passed my driving test and i wouldn't have been able to do it without my instructor at rsa. He was amazing help and was extremely patient with me. He was also easy to talk to which i was afraid of. I would urge anyone doing there test to do lessons with rsa if they want to pass. Cant wait to start driving on my own.

I was so nervous at the thoughts of doing my driving test. As soon as I took pretests I felt at ease. My instructor was great, gave me the confidence it took for me to pass the test. I am so happy I went with RSA School of Motoring because without the help and guidance from my instructor I would not have sat the test. Highly recommended & thank you so much. I will certainly pass the details on to anybody I know doing the test!

The Test: Crucial preparation
Pretest Driving Lessons Abbeyside
The art of driving safely and securely and the art of passing the test should not be confused as the same. You should already have the vital driving skills and road safety knowledge before applying for the test. Pretest training is about understanding the driving test itself and how you can beat it.
If the thoughts of sitting the driving test are overwhelming you then you are not the first to feel like this. We naturally fear what we don't understand and the unknown. But with RSA School of Motoring you don't have to be afraid.
Our tried and tested pretest training packages have been developed to specifically help you overcome your nerves and come out with a deep understanding on what will happen on test day.
By the end you’ll understand fully the four stages of the test and understand exactly what the driving tester is looking for from you, how they will speak to you on the day and why and when the tester will mark the sheet.
