WHY USE LLOYDS DRIVER TRAINING
IN WATERLOOVILLE?
Our goal is to provide our students with a whole new experience. It is critical that students do not become bored with their lessons; otherwise, they will start dreading them, impacting their performance. As a result, they are prevented from passing.
We continuously assess our teaching methods to deliver a universal teaching style, but each instructor will understand you as a learner, so they can deliver lessons to how you best receive them.
There is no one-fits-all method when it comes to teaching how to drive. Some learners are confident, while others require more support. Rest assured, our driving instructors know how to assess that and will ensure you get the support you deserve.
When it comes to pricing, we’re competitive. We don’t believe in offering or you accepting cheap lessons for many reasons. As a school it’s our aim to ensure you don’t just get what you pay for, we like to over-deliver, there’s no compromise when it comes to producing safe drivers.

Why do we offer 1½ Hour Driving Lessons?
We believe that 1½ hours is better to have than a 1 hour driving lesson because you’ll make much more efficient use of the time and your money. The reasons why a 1½ hour driving lesson is better than a 1 hour lesson are because:
-
You’ll receive approximately 2 times more practical driving experience
-
It’s better value for money
-
You’ll cover a greater variety of roads
-
You’ll encounter a greater variety of traffic conditions
-
More Practical Driving Experience
-
You’ll receive approximately 2 times more practical driving experience in a 1½ hour lesson, compared to a 1 hour lesson. The reason for this is as follows:
For example, let’s take a driving lesson where the instructor is going to introduce roundabouts. The instructor will begin the lesson with a recap of the previous lesson and will run through any questions you may have.
The instructor will then introduce roundabouts as being today’s driving lesson, where a lesson briefing will begin. This includes showing diagrams of the different types of roundabouts, how they work, what you, the learner driver should do and safety procedures. From when the lesson starts, to finding an appropriate area to park and carrying out the lesson briefing, it can take up to 30 minutes before you start on roundabouts.
If you have a 1 hour driving lesson, you’ll only have the remaining 30 minutes for the practical driving experience. On a 1½ hour lesson, you have 1 hour’s worth of driving experience and that makes a lot of difference.
Better Value for Money
Based on the fact that you’ll receive more practical driving experience with a 1½ hour driving lesson as detailed above, you will need 2 x 1 hour driving lessons to cover the same amount of driving experience. Therefore 1½ hour driving lessons are far better value for money.
Greater Variety of Roads
If you start your driving lessons from the same location each time; from home, college or work, it’s likely that you’ll also want to finish at the same location. After the initial lesson briefing, the short time you have for practical driving means you’re limited on distance travelled and that means you may not cover the greater variety of roads that you might in a 1½ hour lesson.
The greater the variety of roads that you cover during your driving lessons not only increases your chances of passing the driving test, but the experience will help to make you a safer, more confident driver after you have passed the test.
​
Greater Variety of Traffic Conditions
For the same reasons as above, you’re far more likely to experience a greater variety of traffic conditions during a 1½ hour driving lesson. For the driving test, the test centre manager plans out test routes that will challenge the learner driver to as many varied roads and traffic conditions as possible.
On an ideal driving lesson, you’ll need to begin the lesson from your pickup point, have the lesson briefing, and then experience the test routes and traffic conditions that you’ll be taken on during your test. This could be some distance away from your pickup location and may only be possible in a 1½ hour’s lesson.
Gaining experience with a variety of traffic conditions, particularly the exact routes that you’ll be taking on your driving test will considerably increase your chances of passing.
2 Hour Driving Lessons are Too Tiring
2 hour driving lessons are tiring for most learners, they are simply too long. That’s why Lloyds Driver Training offers 1½ hour lessons and offers enough time to get plenty of driving experience. However, if you are finding driving lessons long and tiring, your instructor will be more than happy to accommodate a short break. Your instructor will guide you to a safe place to park up, where you can exit the car, stretch your legs and get some fresh air.
