Are you deciding whether to take automatic driving lessons?
Until recently, – automatic cars were unusual, and people rightly said having an automatic licence could limit your car choices later on.
Nowadays – all the new technology in electric and hybrid cars is ‘automatic’ , and there are many many more second hand auto cars on the market now. in a few years, finding a manual car might be more difficult than an automatic.
For many pupils, learning in an automatic takes away the fear factor once they realise that you cannot stall an automatic car. Plus you don’t need to learn how to use the clutch or which gear to use as the automatic gearbox does that all for you. All this means that pupils have more time available to read the road and as a result they become more confident in their decision making. Altogether a much more enjoyable learning experience!
