Theory Tuition
   
The Theory Test is an important pre-requisite to the driving test and is the first step in obtaining your driving licence. You need to know and understand what being a driver involves. This means having an understanding of the law and rules of the road, and being aware of the consequences when things go wrong. Understanding driving theory and applying the knowledge to your everyday driving will help you become a safe driver for life.

At Lanes we like to help you as much as we can with the Theory Test. To prepare you, we have a series of Mock Theory Test papers which are available to all pupils. Ask your instructor about them as soon as you begin your driving tuition. It is best to start studying straight away as there is a lot to learn. Your instructor will answer any questions you have on driving theory during your practical lessons and will keep a close eye on your progress!

There is a lot of information to take in so try to learn in stages. Take a topic at a time and learn everything in that topic, then test yourself or get a friend to test you. The earlier you begin studying the better ... Don't think you can leave it until the last minute - if you do you'll fail.

Don't forget that your Lanes instructor will be happy to help you with any problems or questions that you might have. It's also worth remembering that there is plenty of study material available to buy. It depends on how confident you are and how much you want to spend. The Highway Code has essential information for learner drivers and costs only £2.50. If you want to make sure you pass first time and your budget permits, a Theory Training CDROM for your PC will be a tremendous help.

The main thing to remember is that as long as you study all the topics thoroughly then you should pass ...
