GO Driver Training has added automatic driving lessons to its portfolio.
In 2030 the ban on the sale of new combustion engine cars will see petrol and diesel vehicles phased out and replaced by electric models that do not require a clutch. This will see a rapid shift to automatic cars.
As there is no clutch pedal, an automatic car may be easier to drive – especially on more congested city roads – you may find that taking automatic driving lessons is a faster route to your licence. Some people just prefer automatic transmissions for city driving as busy traffic means more frequent gear changes for manual drivers.
Before you decide whether to book driving lessons in an automatic or manual car, it’s important to keep in mind that an automatic licence does not permit you to drive a manual car once you have passed your test. That means that going for an automatic now may limit your choice when buying or renting a car or van in the future.
We offer automatic driving lessons in Didcot, Abingdon, Wallingford and surrounding villages
