A Driving School in Ballydavid you can count on
We all remember the fun engaging teacher in school that made learning easy and fun. And we can recall the poor teachers that had no business teaching anyone. Not all teachers are made equal and that is certainly no less real with driving instructors. It is easy to Google 'Driving Lessons Ballydavid' and find driving instructors near you but which can you trust to best teach you.
Knowledge and professionalism is what you need from a driving instructor. A place where pupils are consistently passing their driving test first time.

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.

What exactly is Essential Driver Training?
EDT Driving Lessons Ballydavid
It is an unfortunate fact that Ireland is one of the worst countries in Europe for road deaths and accidents. In an effort to control these statistics the Road Safety Authority implemented a new and mandatory training initiative for first time drivers. The Essential Driver Training or EDT.
The EDT consists of 12 compulsory lessons that must be delivered by a RSA approved driving instructor to all learner drivers.
This 12 lesson syllabus has been designed to ensure young drivers practice vital driving skills and develop a more comprehensive understanding of road safety.

Preparing for the Driving Test in Ballydavid
Pretest Driving Lessons Ballydavid
First you must master the rules of the road, the road signs and skills involved to control a car safely. And then there is learning to pass the driving test. The test is your chance to show that you are safe enough to drive unaccompanied. Like any exam you have ever had to sit, 80% of passing the driving test is accomplished long before the day of the test with right preparation.
If your test is booked there is a lot of unknowns and fears to contend with. They so often get the best of even the most seasoned driver. So it stands to reason that we have to shine a light in the dark, eliminate the unknowns and the fear. Which is precisely what our pretest driving lessons will do.
Our pretest driving lessons packages have been refined over many decades to give you a deep understanding of what will happen on test day leaving you without any doubt or fear.
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.
