Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

How much is one driving lesson?

Our current price for one lesson totalling 90 minutes is £57.00.

So whether you are looking for a refresher lesson, an intensive driving course or regular weekly driving, we are here to help you get out on the open road.

How many lessons does it take to pass a practical test and drive a car?

Typically it can range between 40 and 60 driving lessons before a learner driver is ready to pass their test. The national average is around 60 hours.

Can I learn to drive before I pass my driving theory test?

You can take driving lessons while studying for your exam at a local theory test centre.

Is it cheaper to do driving lessons in your car?

While learning to drive in your car may be cheaper, you will receive better driving tuition from qualified driving instructors compared to family members or friends deemed suitably qualified and experienced.

You will require special car insurance for learner drivers, whereas driving schools provide insurance during driving lessons.

Another essential factor is the lack of dual control pedals beneath the dashboard. In the worst-case scenario, an instructor can take control of the car and prevent any incidents or collisions during the lessons.

Do we provide automatic driving lessons?

Signature prefers their students to learn to drive manual petrol and diesel cars. That way, they have the necessary skills and driving licence to drive either a manual transmission or automatic car in the future.
