Driving lessons Brighton & Hove
Learn on Brighton’s roads with a local instructor
Brighton & Hove is a brilliant place to learn, because it has everything you’ll meet on your test in a small area: steep hills, bus lanes, cyclists, one-way streets, busy junctions like Preston Circus and Seven Dials, and the stop-start traffic along the seafront.
We start on quieter residential roads in areas like Hangleton, Patcham or Withdean, then build up to the city centre, the Old Shoreham Road, Lewes Road and the A27 and A23 dual carriageways. Hill starts and clutch control on Brighton’s slopes soon become second nature.
I pick up from home, school, college or work anywhere in Brighton & Hove. You’ll have the same calm, patient instructor every lesson, so you always know what to expect.
