Frequently Asked Questions
What age to I need to be to learn to drive?
You can apply for a provisional driving licence when you’re 15 years and 9 months old, which means that you can start learning to drive. To drive in a car on your own you have to be 17 years old and have passed your test.
The only exception to this is if you have the enhanced rate of the mobility component of Personal Independence Payment (PIP), when you can drive at 16 years old (if you have passed your test).
What do I need to pass to get a full drivers licence?
You need to pass your driving theory test and your driving practical test to be able to get a driving licence.
What are Advanced driving lessons?
Advanced driving is the ability to control the position and speed of the vehicle safely, systematically and smoothly, using road and traffic conditions to progress unobtrusively with skill and responsibility. The lessons are taken with a fully qualified driving instructor, over the period of time required by the driver.
The test is taken with an off duty Police Officer. We recommend at Always Pass that you take a ROSPA or DIA training & test
The Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents – Leading health and safety training providers. RoSPA is widely regarded as the UK’s leading voice in health and safety programme delivery, and is the longest running safety organisation with one of the widest selection of courses.
What do I have to do to become a driving instructor?
To become an ADI you must complete three qualifying tests. Part one tests your theory knowledge, part two tests your driving ability and fitness, and part three tests your ability to instruct learner drivers.
When you first apply, an enhanced security check will be carried out by Access NI. Once completed, DVSA will send you your eligibility number which you will need to book a theory test.
If you have concerns about your criminal history you are advised to speak to DVSA before committing to any fees for packages offered by ADI training providers.
You must pass all three tests, in order, within two years. If you fail any of the tests three times, you must wait two years from the date you first sat the theory test before beginning the process again.
