Motorway Lessons
Motorway practice for learner drivers and qualified drivers who want more confidence.
Learners can go on motorways as part of their lessons with a fully qualified driving instructor in a dual-control car, but motorway driving is not part of the driving test. Many people pass without getting much motorway experience. Our motorway lessons cover joining and leaving, lane discipline, overtaking, following distances, smart motorway rules and building confidence at higher speeds.
Who Motorway Lessons Are For
For learner drivers
Learners can take motorway lessons with a fully qualified driving instructor in a dual-control car. Because motorway driving is not part of the driving test, this can be useful if you want extra experience before you pass.
For qualified drivers
If you have passed your test but still avoid motorways, we can help you build confidence with joining, leaving, lane choice, overtaking, following distances and smart motorway rules.

Motorway lesson review
Building Motorway Confidence
“I recently had motorway lessons with Naz. I was a little nervous at the beginning — no need to have been because he was very professional, patient and made me feel at ease. Explaining about the motorway signs, road markings, the speed, lanes, overtaking and much more in such a way that it was easy to understand. I am now driving on the motorway on my own, and remembering what Naz taught me which was first class advice! I highly recommend motorway lessons with Latics and Naz.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Can learners go on motorways?
Yes - learners can go on motorways as part of their lessons, as long as they are with a fully qualified driving instructor in a car fitted with dual controls. However, motorway driving is not part of the driving test, so many learners do not get enough practice before they pass. Our motorway lessons make sure you are properly prepared.
Why take motorway lessons after passing?
Passing your test does not automatically mean you have had much motorway experience, as it is not assessed on the test. Many newly qualified drivers find motorways intimidating. Post-test lessons give you the chance to build real confidence at higher speeds in a safe, guided environment.
What will we cover?
Joining and leaving motorways, lane discipline, following distances at speed, overtaking safely, smart motorway rules, and driving in poor weather or low visibility.
How many sessions will I need?
Most drivers feel significantly more confident after 2-3 sessions, though this varies depending on your starting point and goals.
