How long does it take to learn to drive |
There’s no minimum number of lessons someone must have or hours you must practise driving. How many lessons someone needs will depend on how quickly they learn.
45 hours of driving lessons with a driving instructor on average to pass | 22 hours of extra private practice without a instructor on average to pass |
Research shows that, on average, it takes people 45 hours of driving lessons with a driving instructor plus 22 hours of private practice to pass their test. But those who manage 100 hours of driving lessons plus practice are much safer on the road after their test.
51 out of every 100 driving tests were failed in Great Britain during August 2023 |
If your not ready to pass, it’s best for you to get advice from your instructor about moving the test back.
