Is It Easy To Learn To Drive In A City Centre?

Learning to drive in a city like Leeds might seem more challenging than other locations.

Many people feel anxious and stressed at the thought of having lessons in such places. However, it actually offers numerous benefits to learners!

For starters, you’ll be exposed to heavier traffic from the beginning, therefore learning how to handle yourself in congested areas. Although this can be more challenging, you will develop a greater sense of awareness and concentration.

Learning to drive in a city also means you’ll get to experience many different types of roads, from the city centre to the outskirts, from roundabouts to one-way streets. You will therefore have experienced most driving scenarios once you qualify. From navigating narrow streets to motorways, you won’t feel as daunted once you have your licence.

Cities like Leeds also have plenty of road signs, so you might find it easier to pass your theory test and learn to navigate more effectively. It’s also often easier to meet your driving instructor, because there’s more public transport available in a city. You will enjoy more flexible drop-off and pick-up points.
