Welcome to Ribble Valley Driving

About us

Lessons available across the Ribble Valley including pick ups and drop offs from many villages as well as main schools and colleges within the area.  Sessions are available in an automatic as well as a manual car. 

Wherever possible lessons will be spread over as wide an area as possible to give you chance to develop the skills you need to drive on any road safely and confidently. Not simply learning a few test routes.  

The future . . . With over 40% of new car sales now being automatic, and hybrid/electric car sales increasing, (these cars are automatic), more and more people are choosing the convenience of driving this type of car and therefore no longer need to pass their driving test in a manual car. Equally, if driving a manual car has proved challenging in the past, driving an automatic is often much easier to control, allowing you to spend more time focussing on the road ahead so progress can be much faster. With the increase in availability of automatic cars this is no longer such a restrictive option when purchasing a vehicle.  However, many people still require the flexibility offered with a manual licence so lessons continue to be offered in a manual car too.

Are you returning to driving lessons after a break? Maybe you stopped lessons due to other pressures, perhaps you found the process of learning more daunting than expected previously. Please contact us for a no obligation chat, to discuss how your previous training went, and what aspects you didn’t feel comfortable with so we can plan a way forward that you are happier with, before getting in the car.

Refresher/Motorway Lessons Refresher lessons are available, together with motorway sessions and/or Pass Plus.  With access to several motorways across the local area, incorporating varied features, there's plenty of options to build your driving skills to tackle long distance journeys post test
