Manual driving lessons focus on building confident control of the car, from finding the clutch bite point to choosing the right gear for the road ahead. Your instructor will work at your pace and focus on the areas that need the most attention.

What You'll Learn in Your Manual Driving Lessons

Clutch control, moving off smoothly and stopping safely
Changing gears at the right time and using the correct gear for the road
Hill starts, meeting traffic and control in slow-moving London traffic
Junctions, roundabouts, dual carriageways and busier urban roads
Manoeuvres, independent driving and practical driving test preparation

Manual lessons teach clutch and gear control, giving you a fuller understanding of how the car responds.
If you pass your UK practical test in a manual car, your licence allows you to drive both manual and automatic cars. If you pass in an automatic car, you are restricted to automatics unless you pass a manual test later.
Learning manual can help you build confidence across different roads, gradients and traffic conditions.
