Learning to Drive

When you're learning to drive, there's a lot to take in and it can sometimes feel overwhelming. Whether you're revising for your theory test or sorting out some learner driver insurance so you can practise before your practical driving test, it all adds up.

Your one‑stop guide to learning to drive safely.

This page aims to make things simple. Whether you've just applied for your provisional licence or you're already having lessons, you'll find clear, easy to understand information to help you become a safe, confident driver.

Everything here is designed to support what you learn in your lessons and in the Highway Code, so you can build good habits right from the start.

Below you'll find articles on key topics like stopping distances, road signs, mirrors, roundabouts, hazards, and much more. Each guide breaks things down step by step, using plain language and practical examples you can use on real roads.

Take your time, read through the sections that matter most to you, and come back whenever you need a quick refresher. The more you understand now, the more relaxed and in control you'll feel when you're behind the wheel.
