How much do driving lessons cost?
THE cost of driving lessons depends on where you live, but you can expect an hour’s lesson to cost between £30 and £40. The DVSA says the average number of lessons you’ll need to pass a driving test is 47, so budget on spending around £1,500 on driving lessons alone.
You can keep the cost down by practising in private with a friend or relative instructing, but ensure they’re over 21 years old and have held a full driving licence for at least three years. This might reduce the time needed with an instructor, but you’ll need to factor in learner-driver insurance on the car you’ll be using – and display L-plates, of course.
