Do you hold a driving licence but haven’t driven for a while? If so, Simply Driving Lessons is the driving instructor for you. Whether you’re young or old, passed your test six months or six years ago, all of the refresher courses we offer are specifically targeted at individuals who already have a driving licence but feel the need to relearn the principles of driving in the UK and rebuild their confidence behind the wheel.
Could you benefit from refresher lessons?
At Simply Driving Lessons, we offer refresher driving courses to cover a wide range of driving situations. If you’re feeling nervous at the thought of getting behind the wheel, refresher lessons could really help you to regain your driving confidence.
Become a more assertive driver
If you’re feeling nervous on the road, you’re certainly not alone. Traffic congestion, large trucks and nippy bicycles, short tempers and road rage… it really is no wonder that so many drivers feel ill at ease behind the wheel. And what about international drivers who are new to the UK? Our refresher driving lessons encourage you to read the road calmly, allowing you to think ahead and navigate traffic situations with confidence. Soon you will be a more self-assured driver who enjoys the journey as much as reaching the destination.
Refresh your driving skills after a break
If you passed your driving test some years back and haven’t driven much since then, you may lack the confidence to get back behind the wheel without some tuition first. Perhaps you had a bad driving experience or were involved in an accident? Whatever the reason for your driving abstinence, a few refresher lessons is usually all it takes to recover your feel for the clutch, your ability to judge speed and distance and your own sense of timing. It’s not quite like riding a bike, but with a bit of practice, all the road skills you used to take for granted are bound to come flooding back.
Eliminate bad habits and become a better driver
Over the years, you may have changed your car and your driving habits, perhaps picking up some unwise behaviours along the way. Maybe you hate driving at night or avoid motorway driving? Had a recent speeding ticket? Refresher driving lessons can help put you back on the straight and narrow without any hang-ups or bad habits. What’s more, you will learn how to get the best out of your car, how to maximise your fuel consumption and reduce wear and tear on the vehicle. You will become a skilled driver, a savvy car owner and a more responsible consumer.

Refresher driving course FAQs
Who are refresher driving courses for?

Or perhaps you are new to the UK and want to build some experience driving on the left. Whatever your reason for lacking confidence behind the wheel, professional refresher driving lessons are the best way to rebuild your skills.
Are there other benefits for taking a refresher course?
Yes! Our refresher students tell us that they feel more confident behind the wheel whilst understanding how to drive carefully and safely. Bad habits can build up almost imperceptibly and a refresher course is a great opportunity to refresh your knowledge of the Highway Code.
