Driving Lessons Johnstown Residents Choose Everytime
At RSA School of Motoring we take a refreshingly different approach to driver training. Good driving instruction is about passion, about listening to the student and pushing them to excel. Striking this balance is what we are best at. All our instructors are pushed to stay on top of their game so they can deliver driving lessons that bridge the gap between theory and practice and turn our students into thoughtful, safe drivers. With our instructors your driving will come to life.
WHY WE SAY WE ARE THE Preferred DRIVING SCHOOL IN Johnstown
Our instructors have been trained to quickly recognise what level you are at, where your bad habits are and what remedial measures should be taken to guarantee you make the most progress possible from each lesson with us.
Another thing we see a lot is students coming back for a follow up lesson having forgotten much of what was covered in the lesson before. Which is why we created our own unique training guides and tutorials to support you throughout your driver training.
This is just one initiative that sets us apart from the competition in Johnstown. Many of our pupils have even attributed it to their fast progress and development. Lessons come and go fast and it is easy to forget what you have learned. Our extra lesson material means you can follow up on what was covered before the next lesson ensuring you don't waste time and money going over the same things.

What exactly is the EDT?
EDT Driving Lessons Johnstown
Fact! Ireland has one of the worst road death statistics in Europe. The EDT was created by the Road Safety Authority to help fight the situation.
This Essential Driver Training Syllabus requires that all learners must complete a minimum of 12 hours of essential driver training by an RSA approved driving instructor.
These 12 lessons were created with the intention of filling in the vital driving skill gaps that young drivers had which were leading to the high level of road accidents occurring each year.

Pretest Driving Lessons Johnstown
There is learning the vital driving skills and developing your knowledge of road signs and road safety. And then there is learning to pass the driving test. The test is your chance to show that you are safe enough to drive unaccompanied. Like any exam you have ever had to sit, 80% of passing the driving test is accomplished long before the day of the test with correct preparation.
If you haven't done any preparation for your driving test the your are in the dark and being in the dark can cause a lot of fears to rise up. Fear can distract even the most experienced of drivers. Our approach removes all the unknowns and associated fear that comes with it.
Our pretest driving lessons packages have been refined over many decades to give you a deep understanding of what will happen on test day leaving you without any doubt or fear.
We don’t like leaving things to chance. We simulate for you all 4 stages of the test, teach you all the test routes and focus on the areas of your driving that are most likely to get you the most marks or fail you.
Using this method we get our student past the test in half the time it takes other driving school. That means less lessons and less expense to you.

The best driving school in Leinster! My instructor Joe, he is a brilliant teacher with excellent tips & advice. He's also a bit of craic! I became much more confident and noticeably a better driver within my first 2-3 lessons. The pricing is very reasonable and Joe works with you to best fit your schedule. I wouldn't recommend any other motor school, these guys are by far the best!
