Driving Lessons in Birmingham FAQs

How much do driving lessons cost in Birmingham?

Our Birmingham driving lessons vary depending on your location and Instructor. Bill Plant Driving School offers a regional pricing model that provides affordable driving lessons in Birmingham and you’ll find bulk booking discounts available.

Do you teach driving test routes in Birmingham?

Typically test routes are not publicly available. The DVSA’s main mission is to promote ‘safe driving for life’, and this is something we agree with. To support this, our driving lessons do include the Birmingham test area. Our main focus will always be on improving your overall familiarity with the roads in Birmingham and your driving skills. Your Driving Instructor will take you on lessons through areas around your test centre in Birmingham, helping you to learn any potential routes. However, this is part of the wider journey of learning to drive. There is no guarantee that particular routes will come up during your driving test, which is why the main focus is on improving driving skills.

Which Birmingham test centre should I choose?

We recommend taking your test near where you live for a number of reasons. It’s better if you pass in an environment similar to the roads you’ll be driving on regularly. If you want to take your test at a different centre, talk to your Instructor. They may be able to offer advice on the best test centre in Birmingham and help you prepare.

Test Centre Locations in Birmingham

There are driving test centres across Birmingham, from the very centre of the city to its greener suburbs. Our local Birmingham Driving Instructors can be found across the city and will help you prepare for your driving test at the test centre that you choose.

Our Birmingham driving lesson will help prepare you for the test but are designed to make you a confident driver once you pass. Our goal is to help all our students become confident drivers.

Familiarity is pivotal when it comes to driving, especially for a learner driver, so make sure your Instructor takes you in and around the area where you will be undertaking your driving test.

Instructor tips
It is located just next to the Kingdom Hall of Jehovah's Witnesses, and the test centre has parking available (although be careful as this follows a one-way system). Kingstanding has many dual carriageways that change the speed from 40mph to 30mph and back to 40mph again. Practising these areas will allow you to forward plan and avoid missing one of those speed limit changes.
