Frequently Asked Questions

Get answers to the most common questions about learning to drive with Scotties Driving School in Lowestoft and surrounding areas.

Yes, we provide comprehensive driving instruction across Suffolk and Essex. We also offer Driving Lessons in Basildon and Driving Lessons in Chelmsford for learners in those areas, with the same high standards of instruction you’ll find in Lowestoft.

We understand that sometimes you need to reschedule. We ask for at least 48 hours notice for cancellations to avoid any charges. This allows us to offer the slot to other students and helps keep our service running smoothly for everyone.

You will need to bring your photo licence (Provisional or Full Licence). You will also need prescription glasses if you wear them and comfortable footwear, not flip flops high heels or heavy boots.

Driving lessons can be booked for 1 Hour, 1 ½ Hours or 2 hours with 2 hour lessons being the norm (and most productive) lesson duration (Can be booked either one two hour lesson or two one hour lessons). Two hour driving lessons allow the pupil adequate practice time around the test areas and boost the learning process.

This really depends on several factors. The official DVSA answer is 40 to 60 hours this can be a bit misleading. Few people pass in less than 40 hours unless they have their own car and practise with family or friends.  It also depends on your ability to retain the information being taught.  Age and circumstances also play a great role in the ability to learn. The most important factor though is your willingness to learn to become a safe driver.
