Manual driving lessons Drogheda
Most Drogheda learners start in a manual, and passing in one covers you for manual and automatic cars. The first lessons stay on quieter streets like Barrack Lane. Once the clutch stops being the main event, we move out to Northern Cross.

Automatic takes the clutch out of it, which helps on Northern Cross 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 Drogheda.

An RSA guide to the EDT
Before you sit the driving test you need all twelve EDT lessons, each one stamped in your logbook. Your Drogheda instructor works through them in order, starting on Barrack Lane and building up to Northern Cross.
By the last few lessons you're driving the roads around the Drogheda test centre, so the approach is familiar long before the day itself.
