Canterbury is a city based in Kent. Although not a large city, it provides many roads and junctions to teach new learner drivers with safe driving skills. If you are new, you will start in quiet neighbourhoods by learning how to control the car by the clutch, gears, mirrors and more. Once you have completed 10 hours, your driving instructor in Canterbury will take you out to more busier roads.
Canterbury won’t be the only settlement you will learn in, you may go out to other places such as Herne Bay, Faversham and Ashford to learn more town and city driving. Not only that, you will travel onto single carriageways and country roads to experience diverse driving conditions. This will inevitably test your car positioning and awareness of the road. Such villages you may encounter are Harbledown, Rough Common, Blean, Tyler Hill, Broad Oak, Fordwich, Sturry, Bridge, Chartham Hatch, Chartham and Boughton-under-Blean.
During the last 10 hours of your course, you will be driving around the local area of your practical test centre. This is because, you will get to know the local test routes set out by the DVSA, learn the common areas around the test centre that fail learners and the driving test procedure. Canterbury has a test centre and is a bonus to the learners who live here.
