EDT lessons

Essential Driver Training (EDT) is a mandatory program in Ireland aimed at equipping learner drivers with necessary driving skills. Consisting of 12 one-hour lessons, EDT covers a wide range of driving aspects including gear changing, hazard recognition and parking. The course, delivered by RSA-approved instructors, is tracked through a logbook, ensuring all critical skills are mastered. Beyond just test preparation, EDT's goal is to create safe, competent drivers who understand their road responsibilities.

Refresher lessons

Refresher driving lessons provide customized guidance for existing drivers needing to update their road rules knowledge, enhance certain skills, or regain confidence. Ideal for drivers returning after a hiatus, older individuals, or those preparing to drive abroad, these flexible lessons help improve weak areas, promoting road safety and better driving proficiency.

Car Hire

Car hire for driving tests is a service providing learners with a suitable, fully insured vehicle for their exam. This is beneficial for those without access to an appropriate car or those who prefer using a familiar vehicle. The service ensures a roadworthy car that complies with test centre requirements. Driving schools may offer packages that include lessons and test car hire, streamlining the process for learners. Overall, this service reduces stress on test day, contributing to higher success rates.

Pre-Test lessons

A Pre-Test driving lesson serves as a comprehensive review and simulation of the actual driving test, addressing both the theoretical and practical aspects of driving. This includes handling various driving scenarios, mastering key maneuvers, and understanding road rules. Through constructive feedback, learners are able to polish their skills, boost their confidence, and prepare for real-life safe driving beyond just passing the test.
