The driving test requires a unique set of skills that need to be learnt. Learning to drive can be expensive, so it's important to find a high quality driving school or instructor. When looking for a driving instructor however, try to avoid simply opting for the cheapest you can find. Cheap driving schools often have a reason for being cheap. A good and well established driving instructor will most often get a good deal of work from previous learner drivers who recommend them and as a result have little need to offer excessively low prices. Try to find a driving school based on recommendations or good reviews as this is likely to increase your chances of passing the driving test first time.

However you manage to find an ideal looking driving instructor, before booking up a block of lessons, ask them to take you for an assessment lesson. This can be either your very first driving lesson, or you could have had previous driving experience, it doesn't matter. This first driving lesson is important as you can gauge how well you and the instructor understand each other, how you get on and if you fully understand their teaching techniques. Of course it is also essential to find a driving instructor who is friendly and patient. Much of this can all be established on the first driving lesson.

Also on this initial lesson, check with your instructor that they are familiar with the local driving test routes for your driving test centre in Aberdeenshire. Choosing a local independent driving school will likely ensure that they know these routes and although not essential, all driving examiners set out particularly difficult roads that are part of the driving test routes. A driving instructor who knows these will increase you chances of passing the driving test.

If all goes well and you're happy with your instructor, you can then both discuss an appropriate driving course and your instructor will give you a good idea on how many driving lessons before the test.

Make a note also of your driving instructors licence that must be visibly paced inside the front windscreen. To be a legal trained instructor, the licence should be either pink (trainee driving instructor) or green meaning they are fully qualified.
