FAQ

Asked and answered

Do you do automatic driving lessons in Finglas?

Yes, anywhere we cover, for EDT and pretest alike. One thing to know before you book: if you sit the test in an automatic, the licence you get is automatic only.

Can I book a female driving instructor?

Yes. Ask when you ring and we will put you with one of our female instructors for your EDT or your pretest lessons.

Do you collect me, or do I meet you somewhere?

We collect. Pick-up and drop-off from your home, college or work is part of the lesson across every area we cover, so the hour you pay for is an hour of driving.

What is the EDT, and do I have to do it?

Essential Driver Training is 12 lessons the Road Safety Authority requires every learner to complete with an approved instructor before sitting the test. They are logged in a book your instructor signs as you go, and there is no way round them.

Can I buy lessons as a present?

Yes. Gift vouchers come as 1, 3, 6 or 12 lessons, manual or automatic, as a personalised PDF you can print or forward. Make one on the gift vouchers page, or ring the office.
