What’s It Like To Drive Around Derbyshire?

Derbyshire offers a wide range of driving conditions, from town traffic in Derby and Chesterfield to quiet residential streets and the steep, winding rural roads of the Peak District around Buxton. You’ll handle roundabouts, country lanes and faster A-roads as well as built-up junctions. On an LPOD intensive course we focus your practice on the roads and manoeuvres you’re most likely to meet on test day across Derbyshire.
