But wait, before you call us, read on and see why it is so important that you choose the right driving instructor for you and how the wrong choice can not only cost you time with the need for extra lessons but also a whole lot more money.
Learn to drive with one of our local driving instructor professionals and each of your driving lessons will be adapted and tailored to help you progress towards reaching the driving test standard at a pace that suits your ability and comfort zone.
Most people think that all driving instructors are the same, but did you know that an amazing 30% of learner drivers change their driving instructors before ever taking a driving test. That's a staggering 234'000 learner drivers that change instructors every year.
So what does this tell you about driving instructors? Well for one we are not all the same and your choice of driving instructor is a very important one that can make a massive difference to your progress and the cost of learning to drive. Some pupils have had such bad experiences that it has put them off learning to drive altogether so please do your research before making any decisions.

Learning to drive in an automatic car can take a lot of the stress out of learning to drive and make the whole process easier to achieve.
Most pupils will get on fine with clutch control and changing gears after a couple of hours but for some of us it can prove a real challenge especially when we have everything else to concentrate on while learning to drive.

Under 17's Driving Lessons
This can be a great way to start your learning to drive experience in the safety of our off road driving course. These courses are open to anyone aged 12+ and allow you to learn the basics of driving without the constant fear and worry of busy traffic that you will find on the roads.
Most pupils that attend are aged 12 to 17 but our oldest pupil at one of our venues was 100 year old great granny Joyce Morgan from Bristol who had a driving experience day at our Bath & West Venue back in 2017. A video of her driving session can be found on our Youtube channel.
Everything you learn here will go towards your driving lessons when you turn 17 and can actually help you progress much quicker on the road once you start. These courses are run once a month in Dorset, Somerset and Cornwall.
We have also run driving days for the wonderful people from Dorset Blind and Somerset Sight associations, giving the chance for these very special VIP's to experience driving at our venues. Please contact us for more details if you would like to know more.

Danniella Cotteril - Bristol
I passed my driving test this morning at Bristol Kingswood and I honestly believe it was all down to my driving instructor Steve! He completely built my confidence up and he made every lesson a joy to have!
So happy I found this driving school, would recommend it to everyone, I really believe its the best one out there so thank you :)
Molly Masters - Shaftesbury Dorset
When I first started driving, I was so nervous, but learning to drive with 2nd2None was great, I felt at ease in no time, and I've just passed my test first time! My driving instructor, James, was very helpful, and I wouldn't have been able to do it without him!
Thank you 2nd2None Driving School!
Jordon Townsley - Radstock nr Bath
I would like to say a big thank you to my driving instructor Eric for helping me pass my driving test first time at Bristol Brislington.
Would highly recommend him, he always made me feel relaxed and made the lesson fun.
Tara Chambers - Gillingham, Dorset
Without my driving instructor James I wouldn't have been able to pass, after my accident he built up my courage to learn to drive again.
The free access to Theory Test Pro was my revision to pass my theory and without it I probably wouldn't have.
Overall, my driving experience was fun, giggliy and a memory I plan to keep forever. Thank you James
