Intensive Driving Courses with LIDT help you pass your driving test faster with a tailored, all inclusive course. Whether you are starting from scratch or need a short refresher, we match you with a DVSA-approved instructor and book your practical test so your lessons align with your test date. DVSA's research shows that, on average, learners take around 45 hours of lessons with an instructor plus 22 hours of private practice to pass. This is the benchmark our ADIs work towards when planning your course and helping you progress to test standards.

Your lessons are taught by DVSA Approved Driving Instructors (ADIs). Packages include lessons, the DVSA test booking and test-day car hire, with courses tailored from 15 to 50 hours depending on your experience. You reserve your place with a deposit and pay the balance before training begins.

On test day
- You will have a minimum 2-hour warm-up lesson before your driving test.
