WHY WE SAY WE ARE THE BEST DRIVING SCHOOL IN Carrick-on-Suir
Years of experience has taught us that all students drive at different levels and have bad habits to fix. We want you to feel like you have made great progress after each lesson, both in practice and understanding which is why our ADI's are trained to home in on your weakest areas ensuring time isn't wasted on areas of your driving that are fine.
Another thing we see a lot is students coming back for a follow up lesson having forgotten much of what was covered in the lesson before. Which is why we created our own unique training guides and tutorials to support you throughout your driver training.

Rachael Buggle passed the test with RSA School of Motoring
I failed my test several times and had lost faith in my ability to actually pass the test. A friend suggested that I contact the School of Motoring for a new instructor. They suggested who specialized in aiding those who had not been successful. After a few lessons I was ready to sit my test again and passed it. I highly recommend this school and this instructor. I don't think I would have passed my test without their help.

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 EDT: What is it?
EDT Driving Lessons Carrick-on-Suir
You may not know but many years ago Ireland had one of the worst road accident records in Europe. In an effort to stem these statistics the Road Safety Authority introduced a new and compulsory training initiative for first time drivers. The Essential Driver Training or EDT.
The EDT syllabus requires that 12 structured driving lessons have to be completed, stamped and uploaded to the RSA website by a registered ADI.
This 12 lesson syllabus has been designed to ensure young drivers practice vital driving skills and develop a more comprehensive understanding of road safety.

Getting ready for the Test in Carrick-on-Suir
Pretest Driving Lessons Carrick-on-Suir
First you must master the rules of the road, the road signs and skills involved to control a car safely. Then you must master the conditions of the driving test and understand what to expect. The test is your chance to show that you are safe enough to drive unaccompanied. As with any exam you have ever had to sit, 80% of passing the driving test is accomplished long before the day of the test with proper preparation.
If the thoughts of sitting the driving test are overwhelming you then you are not the first to feel like this. Fear of failing, fear of nerves getting the better of you or just fear of the unknown. Well fear not.
It is standard practice by many driving instructors to keep giving you lessons until they 'think' you are ready. They 'think' you are ready but they do not really 'know'. And they do this because they do not truly understand the driving test, how you will be graded or what areas of your driving will cause you to fail. Luckily this is not how we operate. All our instructors have been trained by ex-testers so they fully understand the driving tester and what they are looking for from you on test day.
We don’t like leaving things to chance. Our pretest training fully simulates the 4 different stages of the driving test and fully prepares you for the way the tester will talk to you and how they mark the test sheet.
When we share this knowledge and understanding with our students it is like giving them all the answers to an exam before they even know the questions. Which is why so many of our student pass first time. That means less lessons and less expense to you.
