Manual driving lessons Kinsaley

Most Kinsaley learners start in a manual, and passing in one covers you for manual and automatic cars. The first lessons stay on quieter streets like Kinsealy Lane. Once the clutch stops being the main event, we move out to Malahide Road.

Automatic driving lessons Kinsaley

Automatic takes the clutch out of it, which helps on Malahide Road at busy times. A test passed in an automatic gives a Code 78 licence, limited to automatic cars. Same instructor, same free pick-up in Kinsaley.

An RSA guide to the EDT

12EDT lessons6Reduced EDT

Before you sit the driving test you need all twelve EDT lessons, each one stamped in your logbook. Your Kinsaley instructor works through them in order, starting on Kinsealy Lane and building up to Malahide Road.

By the last few lessons you're driving the roads around the Killester test centre, so the approach is familiar long before the day itself.
