Many Thanks for choosing to find your driving instructor in Wokingham from our directory. Driving lessons are an important way to prepare you for the driving test. Please feel free to contact any of the driving instructors listed above for more information about lessons in Wokingham.
Learning to drive can be one of the most exciting times in a teenager’s life. For some it can be their first taste of independence. They no longer have to rely on parents to take them everywhere. However with this new found freedom comes responsibility. New young drivers have a 23% chance of being involved in a traffic accident in their first year of driving.
The reasons so many youngsters are involved in traffic accidents are many:
• Lack of experience. It takes many years of experience to drive safely and competently. Throughout a lifetime of driving you will see and experience many near misses. It has been said that experienced drivers react 2 seconds quicker than inexperienced drivers. The reason for this is that experienced drivers recognize the “potential” dangers that some inexperienced drivers are unaware of.
• Peer pressure. Wanting to show off to your mates. The harsh reality is that your mates will not spend the rest of their lives pushing you around in a wheel chair if you become paralyzed in an accident.
• The thrill of driving fast. Anyone that I know of that has decided to become a boy racer has crashed….. without exception!
Your driving instructor will advise you as to when you are ready to take your driving test. There are no set number of lessons. It all depends on the individual. However the DSA quote that the average time taken to pass a driving test is 45hrs with an instructor plus some private practice. So don’t try to run before you can walk. Driving in Wokingham can be as hard as driving anywhere else. Remember you are learning a skill that will hopefully stand you in good stead for the rest of your life.
