Meridian Driving Centre

Our intensive driver training courses are aimed at preparing you for the practical driving test and encouraging safe driving for life. All our courses are tailored to suit the individual's need, from the complete beginner to those who need a boost to pass the test.

What is an intensive driving course?

Standard lessons are typically 1 hour a week on average. As such you take a fair amount of time getting back into last week's lesson, so that by the time you are feeling confident again the lesson is nearly over.

With intensive training there is no 1 hour limit and no stopping and starting each week. Intensive courses are becoming more popular as the high cost of learning to drive and insurance costs are hitting 17-18 year olds. People realise the need for a driving licence for work and as they get a bit older do not want to spread the learning over several months.

You can start a course on any day of the week. Courses generally start between 8.30 and 9.30 and are made up of 5/6 hours flexible training a day with an hour break for lunch.

The course length will depend on the amount of previous driving experience.

The Theory Test

You must have passed your theory test before you can take your practical test. If you require any advise please telephone us.

Your Driving Test

Most learners want to take their practical driving test at the end of training. We will arrange this for you if you wish. 2 hours will be left for the test appointment at the end of your training.
