Intensive Driving Courses in Liverpool

As one of the most vibrant and diverse cities in the UK—not to mention a former European Capital of Culture—there’s plenty worth exploring in Liverpool. And what better way to get around than by car? Read on to find out how you can become a fully licensed driver in Liverpool in a matter of weeks with a PassMeFast crash course!

Booking intensive driving lessons in Liverpool

Our range of intensive driving courses are fast, flexible and customisable. No matter which course you take, you can take it at a pace to suit you. If you booked a 25-hour course, for example, you could take it over a 5-day period, or spread your lessons out over a longer time frame to fit around your other commitments.

Interested in automatic intensive driving lessons in Liverpool?

Living in a city like Liverpool means you might often find yourself in traffic jams and dealing with traffic stopping and starting constantly. In a traditional manual car, this can lead to an incredibly frustrating driving experience. In an automatic car, however, you can forget about the annoying gear changes.

If you’d prefer to learn in an automatic car, then you’re in luck, as PassMeFast offer both manual and automatic lessons in Liverpool. Just another way we give you control over your driving course!

While our courses vary by individual, you can rely on a few things with every single PassMeFast course:

  • We’ll book you a fast-track practical test (and a theory test, if you need one), which will take place at a local test centre, weeks or months ahead of normal waiting times
  • You’ll get one-on-one tuition from one of our fleet of driving instructors

Our driving school is different to others—instead of making students pay thousands for a “guaranteed pass” (with plenty of small print), we simply offer great quality lessons with fantastic instructors. That means that, with PassMeFast, you have a fantastic chance of passing fast and first time.

Driving around Liverpool

As a bustling city, it shouldn’t surprise any learner drivers in Liverpool to hear that driving here will involve dealing with some pretty busy road conditions. However, your practical test will try to test you on a variety of different roads, so don’t be too surprised to head out towards the outskirts of the city on your course, or even to some more rural areas. You’ll also gain a solid understanding of how to approach different types of roads, junctions, and roundabouts—as well as the various types of pedestrian crossing.

What happens in a UK driving test?

The driving test is split into five sections. First you'll perform a quick eyesight test, which involves reading a number plate from 20 metres away. You'll be asked a 'tell me' question, and the 'show me' question will be asked while you're driving.

For the majority of the test, your general driving ability will be tested. This involves the examiner guiding you where to go whilst assessing your driving. Next, you'll need to do a reversing manoeuvre, before finally doing some independent driving.

Independent driving involves following a sat nav or road signs to a certain destination. But don't worry, you won't be penalised for taking a wrong turn.
