No, you don’t need to pass your theory exam before starting driving lessons. However, many people find it helpful to first work on their knowledge and understanding of traffic rules and situations before getting behind the wheel.

That said, it’s entirely up to you to decide what works best for you. Some people find it more effective to work on their theory and practical skills simultaneously, while others prefer to focus on their theory first before starting driving lessons.

There’s no right or wrong answer—it depends on your personal preferences and learning style.

The number of driving lessons you’ll need depends on various factors, such as your experience behind the wheel, your driving skills, and how quickly you can understand and apply what you’ve learned. On average, people need between 30 and 40 lessons, though some may require fewer, while others might need more.

During an introductory lesson, you’ll get an idea of how many lessons you might need. Based on your driving ability and the instructor’s feedback, they can give you an estimate.

The number of lessons can then be adjusted depending on your progress and learning style, ensuring you learn to drive in the most effective way.

This is an intensive driving course where you take multiple lessons per week and are prepared for the practical exam within a few weeks.

Keep in mind that this approach is not suitable for everyone, and it’s important to ensure you are well-prepared for the exam. During your trial lesson, discuss with your driving instructor whether an intensive course is right for you and which program best fits your situation.
