Introduction to Motorway Driving Lessons

When you’re ready to learn how to drive on the motorway, it’s essential that you begin with an introduction to driving on the motorway. These lessons are important because they provide you with the necessary skills and knowledge to navigate the motorway safely and confidently.

One of the benefits of motorway driving is the ability to travel long distances in a shorter amount of time. However, it’s crucial to have the skills required for motorway driving, such as:

• maintaining a consistent speed and safe distance from the vehicle in front

By avoiding common mistakes, such as tailgating, changing lanes without signalling, or driving too close to large vehicles, you can ensure a safe driving experience.
