If you’ve ever tried driving through a busy city such as Glasgow, then you’re likely to have experienced slow traffic that stops and starts endlessly. These sorts of conditions require plenty of clutch control, and gear changes aplenty. If you’d rather avoid all of this hassle on a city drive, then you may wish to consider learning in an automatic car instead. Luckily, PassMeFast offers both manual and automatic driving courses in Glasgow, so the choice is yours.

As the most populous city in Scotland, Glasgow has great public transport links. But if you're sick of getting drenched in the rain while you wait for the bus, you're probably thinking it's about time you start learning to drive.

Driving around Glasgow

Driving in Glasgow requires a little patience, as with most cities, particularly during peak times and in the city centre. The good news is that Glasgow drivers do tend to be courteous.

Glasgow benefits from well-developed road networks, including major motorways like the M8, M74, and M80 that provide good connectivity within the city and to other parts of Scotland. The popular city hosts many events, concerts, and football matches, particularly at venues like the SEC Centre, Hampden Park, and Ibrox Stadium so traffic can be affected during these times.

Experiencing the drive across Clyde Arc (Squinty Bridge) offers a great view of the River Clyde and the modern architecture along its banks. Whilst driving through the West End can with its leafy streets, historic buildings, and proximity to attractions like Kelvingrove Park and the Botanic Gardens can be an enjoyable experience.

FAQs

Are you looking for fast-tracked driving lessons in Glasgow and a practical driving test to avoid long queues? We offer flexible courses with a range of payment options to suit your needs. Plus, you can take your test right after your lessons to ensure everything is fresh in your mind. Our expert instructors are approved by DVSA and CRB-checked, providing you with the best guidance to help you pass the test. You can learn and take the test in your local area, and we also offer home and workplace pickups for your convenience. 

Some of the test centres in Glasgow include Glasgow (Anniesland), Glasgow (Baillieston) and Glasgow (Shieldhall). It’s usually best to pick the test centre closest to you. You’ll do your driving lessons in this area and become familiar with the route you’ll use during the test.

The driving test pass rate in Glasgow is 41.2%. It’s understandable that some people choose their test centre based on the pass rate, but it’s not as important as you’d think. There are lots of factors that can influence a pass rate, such as the number of tests taken in the area. Whether or not you pass simply depends on how you perform on the day.

We operate across the UK, with a network of high quality tutors in Manchester, London, Birmingham, Bristol, Cardiff, Leeds, Leicester, Liverpool, Sheffield and Nottingham. Wherever you live, it’s highly likely we’ll have an instructor nearby who can meet you at your home to begin your lessons. 

Intensive driving courses work by booking a block of lessons bundled with your theory and practical driving tests. We’ll then do all the admin, book your fast-tracked driving test and assign an expert instructor to teach you. Unlike other intensive driving courses, PassMeFast lets you choose how many hours you drive per day. From fully intensive (4-5 hours) or semi-intensive driving lessons (2 hours) — we fit your driving course around your schedule.

PassMeFast’s intensive driving courses are perfect for anybody, whether you’re a beginner or pro. If you don’t have much driving experience, don’t worry. You’ll be up to speed quickly and an intensive driving course means you’ll avoid unnecessary lessons and learn to drive at lightning speed.

An intensive driving course could save you money in the long run. You’ll take longer lessons, which means you’ll have more time to work on your skills. The issue with hourly lessons is that they’re over before you can get the hang of things. Not only that, but the gap between lessons means you could end up forgetting what you’ve already learned. Avoid forking out for more lessons than you need and choose an intensive driving course instead.

It really depends on what works best for you, as well as how many hours of lessons you need. You could finish an intensive driving course in a few days or a week, or you could space out your lessons a little over a few weeks.

Nobody can guarantee that you pass a driving test. The DVSA runs driving tests in the UK, and they hire examiners who decide whether you've passed or failed. Examiners can't be influenced, so it all depends on how you perform on the day. A company offering a guaranteed pass is usually being deceptive and there will be various clauses hidden in the terms and conditions.

If you've not been behind the wheel before, 20 hours of lessons is unlikely to be sufficient to get you test ready. The DVSA state that on average a candidate who passes their test has taken 48 hours of professional lessons, as well as completed 20 hours of private practice. So a 20 hour course is only suitable for a learner who has already had at least 20 - 30 hours behind the wheel. Try our course recommender to understand what the best course is for you.

We have a team of over 5,000 friendly driving instructors who will fill your brain with the driving skills you need to pass your test fast. Whether you want to learn to drive in a manual or automatic car, you’re in the best hands possible.

Yes! Jump on a PassMeTheory online revision session to get theory test prepped and ready to pass. Just pick a date and time that works for you and we’ll teach you the trickiest parts of the test to make sure you’re ready to go.
