niamh lalor - I passed my test!
Passed first time! I just want to say a big thank you to my driving instructor and the RSA School of Motoring for helping me pass successfully on my first attempted... Was an amazing instructor who showed me how I should drive and spent a lot of time refining my techniques to the level required to pass. He also worked on making me a confident and calm driver which was a big advantage on the day of my test...I heard of the RSA School of Motoring through a work colleague who said they were extremely good and helped her pass successfully. I'm so glad she recommend them and I would definitely recommend them to anyone learning to drive. I can now say I feel confident enough to drive anywhere on my own :)

Why choose RSA School of Motoring?
Generally pupils are among the following. You have to complete or commence your 12 EDT driving lessons. Otherwise you need to focus on your pretest preparation.
The EDT: The history?

During an action to improve the negative statistics of young drivers getting killed or seriously injured on our roads the Road Safety Authority introduced the EDT.
This EDT mandates that all students must complete a no less than 12 hours of essential driver training by an RSA approved driving instructor.
This 12 lesson EDT syllabus has been created to guarantee young drivers apply vital driving skills and grow a more comprehensive understanding of road safety.
This hopefully has given you some insight into why the EDT exists.
Getting yourself ready for the Test in Ballaghmore

The skill of driving safely and securely and the skill of passing the test should not be mistaken as the equivalent. Well before sitting the test you should have the essential skills and knowledge to drive without having to put your life or the lives of others at risk. Our Ballaghmore pretest driving lessons are engineered to show you how to overcome the test by mastering the conditions you will be placed under.
If the thoughts of sitting the driving test are overwhelming you then you're not the first person to feel like this. We normally fear what we do not understand and the unforeseen. But with RSA School of Motoring you don't have to be worried.
Most driving instructors will keep giving you lessons until they ‘think’ you are prepared. They 'think' you are ready but they do not really 'know'. And they do this due to the fact they do not really have an understanding of the driving test, how you will be marked or what areas of your driving will cause you to fail. Fortunately this is not how we operate. Our team of instructors have been coached by ex-testers so they completely understand the driving tester and what they are looking for from you on driving test day.
By the end you’ll appreciate completely the four phases of the test and fully grasp exactly what the driving tester is looking for from you, how they will communicate with you on the day and why and when the tester will grade the marking sheet.

Rob Bowes
Rob Bowes - The Ultimate Driving School in Leinster
I got in touch with two weeks before my test on a recommendation from a friend. Within the first lesson was able to tell me exactly what I needed to fix in order to pass my test. I was feeling confident that I knew what had to be done going into the test to be successful. knew exactly what he was doing and is clearly very experienced in teaching driving as due to his help I passed first time after 3 lessons with him. Can't thank enough! Highly recommend.
