Driving lessons with an instructor don't come cheap
At around £40 an hour, 45 hours of lessons comes to about £1,800, plus the theory and practical test fees.
All you need, at a fraction of the cost
For as little as £140 a month, LearnerBrake lets you practise safely in your own car and complements any professional lessons. In simple terms, that could be around 20 hours with a driving instructor and 25 hours with family or friends.

Why parents use it
Practise on busier roads, calmly
LearnerBrake is a dual control brake designed for parents to use in the family car while a young driver is learning. It takes the fear and anxiety out of supervising, because you know you can stop the car at any moment. Learners relax too, knowing you can help if they make a mistake. It is a must-have for anyone supervising a young driver.
You can practise safely, not only in car parks and quiet roads but on busy high streets, narrow country roads and dual carriageways. A safe learning environment lowers the risk and the anxiety, and keeps the atmosphere calm and focused, so you get real-world experience whenever it suits you, as often as you need.
Get plenty of practice, give yourself the best start
Every learner wants to pass the driving test first time. It is hard to do, and something to be proud of. There is no magic recipe. It comes down to how well prepared you are.
Boost your confidence
Driving is a skill, and the more you practise, the better you get. Practice brings experience, and experience builds confidence. Confidence is the key to passing your driving test.
