Learn to drive in Bristol.

Driving lessons, refresher lessons, motorway lessons, and Pass Plus with a Bristol Driving School.

Alan School of Motoring. Learn to drive in a Peugeot 207.

Motorway driving lessons. Joining the motorway, changing lanes, overtaking, safe separation distance, looking into the distance, being aware of traffic behind and effective use of mirrors. Use of signals, high sided vehicles, effects of cross winds, fatigue, taking breaks, emergencies, breakdowns, the hard shoulder, emergency telephone.

These are some of the topics covered in a 2 hour motorway driving lesson. It sounds and looks a lot but it really is easy to get used to. I haven’t met a pupil yet who didn’t enjoy a motorway lesson and at the end they have all said they were ready to make a real journey.

I often point out when we are on the M5 that in about 2 hours you could be on the south coast, Torquay perhaps. Or in about 20 minutes Weston-s-Mare.

Remember that mile for mile, motorways are the safest roads, no junctions, traffic lights, or pedestrian crossings, Just keep a good lookout for traffic hold ups ahead, and make sure you are aware of traffic all around you. You will be reminded about the importance of using all of the mirrors

The picture below is used to illustrate the importance of reading the overhead signs and knowing where you are going, particularly in choosing the correct lane for your destination.

If Pass plus is not for you then a 2 hour motorway lesson should give enough confidence for motorway driving. A motorway lesson will cover the same points as a Pass Plus Motorway lesson.
