Manual driving lessons Dundalk
Most Dundalk learners start in a manual, and passing in one covers you for manual and automatic cars. The first lessons stay on quieter streets like Williamsons Mall. Once the clutch stops being the main event, we move out to Coe's Road.

Automatic driving lessons Dundalk
Automatic takes the clutch out of it, which helps on Coe's 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 Dundalk.

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 Dundalk instructor works through them in order, starting on Williamsons Mall and building up to Coe's Road.
By the last few lessons you're driving the roads around the Dundalk test centre, so the approach is familiar long before the day itself.
Get ready to pass your Dundalk driving test
Once the EDT is done, it's on to test preparation. The nearest centre to Dundalk is Dundalk, 1.9 km and about 4 minutes by road. Pretest lessons run on the roads around it, and you sit the test in the car you practised in. If Drogheda has an earlier date, we cover those routes too.
