From 12 May 2026 the law changed. Only the test candidate can book or swap their own car driving test. LIDT legally helps by matching candidates who want to swap dates, and by providing in person assisted booking at our office. Read our full guide to the 2026 changes

Weekly driving lessons

We understand that not everyone has the time or flexibility for an intensive course. Life gets busy. Work, family and commitments get in the way. That is completely fine. Our DVSA approved instructors are experienced in working with learners who prefer to take it one lesson at a time, building skills and confidence at whatever pace suits you.

Same instructor every time

You will be matched with one instructor who gets to know your learning style, your strengths and where you need more practice.

Progress tracked automatically

Every lesson logged on the free LIDT app. Your DVSA syllabus updates after each session. You always know exactly where you stand.

Flexible scheduling

Lessons arranged directly with your instructor around your availability. Evenings, weekends and daytime slots available.

Refresher courses and Pass Plus

Passing your test is a great achievement, but for many drivers the real challenge starts when you are behind the wheel on your own for the first time. Our post-test courses are designed to help you become a safe, confident driver, not just a test passer.

Refresher courses

Already passed but not driven in a while? A refresher course lets you choose exactly what to work on.

  • Practice on motorways and dual carriageways
  • Focus on specific weak areas
  • Night driving and all-weather conditions
  • Rural and city driving
  • Flexible hours, no set package required

Pass Plus (6 hours)

Congratulations on passing your test. Pass Plus is a structured 6-hour course recognised by the DVSA covering real-world situations the standard test does not fully prepare you for.

  • Motorway driving - often the first time for new drivers
  • Night driving in real conditions
  • Dual carriageways and rural roads
  • All-weather driving skills
  • Town and city driving at different times of day
  • Builds genuine confidence for solo driving

What our learners say

"My LIDT instructor was patient and professional. When I needed a later test date, they found a swap match within days. I called DVSA with the other learner and we swapped easily."

Priya, Wembley ★★★★★

"The LIDT App kept me on track. My instructor used it to plan every lesson. I knew I was ready before I even thought about booking."
