Automatic cars don’t have a clutch pedal or gear lever. There is a gear selector, and once you put the transmission into drive, everything else is automatic. You can select from the following gears: Park – which is when the car is stationary, Reverse, Neutral – which is the same as neutral on a manual gearbox and Drive. You can also choose first and second gears to override the system, for example when going down a steep hill.

The benefits of automatic car driving lessons in the UK

There are many benefits of automatic driving lessons. When most people start driving learning how to accelerate, use the clutch pedal and gears together can be difficult. For others, it’s downright stressful. When you’re stressed you won’t be able to concentrate on other aspects of your driving such as road positioning, speed and steering. Older people and nervous drivers can also enjoy the benefits of automatic driving lessons. You can enjoy more confidence without the fear of stalling, and benefit from less distraction when driving so you can focus on the road instead of the complicated clutch and gear stick. Other benefits of automatic driving courses include passing your driving test more quickly, meaning that you’ll need fewer driving lessons so it will cost less.

For anyone that’s failed their test multiple times, or drivers who get nervous behind the wheel, automatic driving lessons could be ideal. Without the added pressure of gears your progress will soar, and it will cost a lot less to get on the road. Automatic driving lessons for nervous drivers will also help you to learn to drive quickly and pass your driving test as soon as you feel ready, helping to improve your confidence before you start driving on your own.

Thinking about booking automatic car driving lessons by qualified instructors?

If you take your driving test in an automatic car you will only be legally allowed to drive an automatic car and this will be marked on your licence. The popularity of driving automatic cars varies by country – there is a preference for geared cars in Europe while most cars sold in America since the 1950s have been automatics. If you travel to the USA, or even Australia and New Zealand, and want to hire a car you may find that they are mostly automatic. It’s a good idea to take automatic driving lessons by a qualified instructor before you go so that you can be a confident driver when you get there.
