Now that the British government has begun to unlock the country, we can get back to doing what we do best. Here at Progress School of Motoring, we have been committed, for many years now, to providing driving lessons across the whole of North Wales.

We are very happy that we will be able to get out on the roads and begin to start to drive again soon. We look forward to teaching people how to be confident and safe while driving a car, so we do actively encourage you to get in touch with us and confirm your position. There has never been a better time to re-commit to learning how to drive, as it is a useful skill that will give you many opportunities in the future. It won’t be long now until we can all get back out on the roads to start learning, so it’s important to be prepared and to reserve your place with us. We look forward to seeing you all soon.

The coronavirus pandemic has placed substantial demands on every aspect of normal life. For a lot of businesses, this has meant closure on account of not being a vital service, and many companies have not been able to sustain themselves during this period. We want to ensure you that the whole team here at Progress are supporting as many current and future students with advice and guidance as we can. If you would like to sign up for lessons, we can add you to our waiting list for when our wheels start turning again.

With the easing of the recent lockdown restrictions in Wales, lessons are booking up fast here at Progress School of Motoring. After weeks of being unable to take lessons and sit tests, learner drivers are keen to get their test booked in and hopefully pass now that Progress School of Motoring is once again open and on the road. The weeks that we have been closed has led to a large number of people wanting to get their tests booked in within a short amount of time and this means that driving lessons are booking up very quickly as we strive to get back on track.

A driving test can be a pretty stressful time. You will often find that when it comes to this test, some students can fail because they make some very basic mistakes. It’s often more to do with nerves than anything else - understandable in the circumstances.

Welsh Lockdown: Progress will be back on the road from the 9th November

Originally, the DVSA had said it would make changes to the theory test in March 2020 but obviously this could not happen as no tests were taking place due to a countrywide lockdown. Changes have been announced to the theory test, but these were always due to be implemented at some stage, and now they have.

If you know someone who is a learner driver, then they are getting started on an exciting chapter of their lives. This also means that you can give them a fantastic set of gifts to make the experience a great one!

For a long time, the driving test has been a rite of passage. It has formed the basis for young and old alike to become part of an elite club - those with the knowledge and legal permission to drive. These tests take a whole selection of forms, but they could be set to change.

2020 is a new year and the start of a new decade. It is also the beginning of attempts to tackle some of the problems surrounding driving, which involves introducing new rules and regulations for all drivers starting from the 1st of January.
