Driving Lessons in Oldham - Mikes Driving Lessons
Oldham's complex network of one-way roads provides a perfect challenge for the more experienced driver. You'll be able to practice hazard perception, and anticipation and planning skills as you keep your eyes peeled for signs whilst driving through a busy town centre.
The two colleges provide plenty of opportunity to predict and plan around pedestrian hazards, whilst larger junctions such as elk mill roundabout and King Street Roundabout allow you to practice your lane discpline and planning when joining and exiting roundabouts.

The Theory test must be passed before your Practical test, and you have to pass your practical test within 2 years of passing your theory test. The Theory test contains both a Multiple Choice test, with a pass mark of 44/50, and a Hazard Perception test, with a pass mark of 43/75. Mike can help you with studying for these tests, with anything from books to mock test DVDs, as well as answering any questions you may have. With large amounts of the theory covered during Practical driver training, you'll pass in next to no time! You should only book your theory test on the Official DVSA website.
The Practical test assesses your ability to control a vehicle safely on the road, with consideration for other road users and knowledge of the highway code. The amount of time a pupil can take to get to test standard can vary, but the DVSA state an average of 45 hours with a Trainer and 20 hours of private practice. However long or short the process takes you, Mike will be able to tailor the instruction to your needs. This, as well as keeping track of your progress with Driver Progress records, means you'll always be learning something new on each lesson, and be able to track your progress as you're learning!
