Automatic Driving Lessons

Not everyone is aware of the fact, but it is possible to gain a licence which permits you to operate an automatic car only, and many driving instructors offer automatic driving lessons. Such automatic driving schools can be found across the UK and, for whatever reason, may be more suitable for you than manual instruction.

Not everyone can cope with gears when they first learn to drive and, because of this, you might find automatic driving lessons are the quickest way to obtain your licence. Alternatively, you may have bought, or have access to, an automatic vehicle and are seeking a driving school that will teach you to drive that car.

• You may have a disability that means it is more difficult to drive a manual car than an automatic one.
• As you do not need to operate the clutch, it is easier to drive in an automatic car.

In general, automatic cars are more expensive to buy and have higher fuel costs, meaning that automatic driving instruction may cost more than manual driving lessons. If you are thinking about learning with an automatic driving school, then you must take all aspects into consideration.

• An automatic driving licence does not permit you to drive manual vehicles.
• If you pass your test in a manual vehicle, you are eligible to drive both automatic and manual cars.
• Most people prefer to learn in a manual car, as the transition to driving an automatic is less troublesome.
• Although automatic driving schools are to be found across the UK, manual instructors are far more commonplace.

However, if you genuinely feel that you would benefit from automatic driving lessons, do not let this put you off. Choosing the right form of driving instruction is vital for learners and if, having weighed up the pros and cons, you feel this is the right option for you then you should go ahead and contact an automatic driving school.
