Booking Intensive Driving Lessons in Sunderland

Not sure how to choose the right driving school here in Sunderland? In our book, there are a few things that really matter. After all, you need to make sure you’re getting your money’s worth! So, first on your list should be a school with great driving instructors (with the DVSA’s seal of approval, of course). Then, you’ll want to make sure that lesson times fit around your needs. Fantastic customer service should be a given, and early test dates would be the cherry on top.

As it so happens, PassMeFast offers all this (and more!) to Sunderland’s would-be drivers. We’ve got plenty of courses and prices to choose from, with options available for everyone from a beginner to a learner who’s almost test ready.

Practical Driving Test Centres in Sunderland

It’s always handy being able to take your test close to home, as it means you can spend your lessons practising on roads you’ll already be familiar with. That’s why we’re pleased to say that Sunderland has its own practical test centre, saving you the hassle of travelling outside of the local area. If you are in need of an alternative, try South Shields or Gateshead.

Theory Test Centres in Sunderland

As with the practical test, those living locally have an obvious choice when it comes to taking the theory test. The Sunderland theory test centre will suit most learners perfectly, but if you need backups, consider heading north-west to Newcastle or south-east to Middlesbrough.

Haven't taken your theory test yet?

Whether you’ve never given it a go before or keep failing it, passing your theory test is a vital part of getting your licence. Not only will it provide the foundation for safe driving, but the DVSA make it impossible (literally!) to book a driving test without a valid theory pass. So, you know what to do: add a theory test onto your PassMeFast course. We’ll then make all the necessary arrangements for you, so all you need to do is pass it!

Driving Around Sunderland

As a learner driver, you’re bound to hear plenty of ‘advice’. Some of it is simply untrue, from the idea that you’ll fail your test if you stall through to people claiming they can get you a guaranteed pass. Other tips, though, are sound. In our book, one of the best hints is that knowing the area where you’re due to take your test can give you a real edge on the big day.
