Upon receiving your provisional driving licence, you become eligible for learning to drive. You will also be able to study for and take the car theory test. The theory test tips section provides plenty of help and advice for learner drivers taking the theory test.

With the multitude of driving instructors in and around Cumbria, it's not always easy to differentiate a good instructor from a bad one. Other than recommendations or online reviews, the best way is to take an assessment driving lesson. This first driving lesson is important for the learner driver as it will determine whether you and the instructor get along and if you fully understand their teaching techniques. This initial lesson may be a little stressful, but if the instructor is patient, friendly, easily understood and you make plenty of progress, he or she should be ideal.

When the driving lesson has finished, you can discuss a suitable course, this could be weekly lessons or intensive driving courses, plus any discounts that the instructor may offer. However, don't simply opt for the cheapest driving school or instructor you can find, as you may not receive the best service, which could cost you more long-term.

Ensure also that the instructor is highly experienced with the Cumbria driving test routes. Driving examiners located at each of the UK's driving test centres plan the driving test routes to involve some of the most challenging areas. A driving instructor who is familiar with these routes will benefit you on the day of your driving test.

Whilst you are learning to drive, you may also find the driving test tutorials on our Driving Test Tips web site useful for aiding in your progress.
