Testimonials
“I've had many lessons, been through many driving schools and instructors; but Wimbledon Driving School helped me to pass. Russ and Farooq were my instructors and they were the best I have met. I am a TV producer and did a series about driving schools and this is the best driving school in my professional opinion.”
Rima Rouf, Tooting Bec, London
“I must say that I am extremely happy with the lessons compared to the last driving school. I learnt so much more in just 3 lessons than I did in over 20 at my previous school. I am very confident that this school is one of the best in London, if not the best.”
Paul Tavarez, New Malden, Surrey
Driving Schools Kingston (KT1)Our driving school proudly serves the Kingston (KT1) area with automatic and manual driving lessons. The information below is intended to help you develop your driving skills further in the key driving competencies and has been provided by our DSA-licenced driving instructors. We hope you find it useful. Areas to do controls/Moving off & Stopping It is best to start this subject on a quiet road like High Drive. This is in KT3, but within 5mins of Kingston Town Centre. Left/Right turns and emerging at T-Junctions WDS recommend doing a circuit which starts on High Drive, turns left on to Branksome Way, then at the crossroads turns right on to Woodlands Avenue. At the end of Woodlands Avenue we can emerge left on to High Drive and then turn left again on to Overdale Avenue. We can then turn right on to Oak Road. At the end of Oak Road we can emerge right on to Clarence Avenue and then turn right back on to High Drive. This allows the learner to practice steering, MSPSL and Peep and Creep techniques.
Crossroads The crossroads of Branksome Way and Woodlands Avenue can be used to illustrate priorities and the extra observation applied at crossroads. This junction can also be used to provide instruction on the methods of turning right-to-right at a crossroads. Roundabouts The roundabout where Park Road, Manorgate Road, Clifton Road, Kingston Hill and London Road come together; can be used to illustrate priorities, methods of positioning and the appropriate signals for a given exit. Pedestrian Crossings and use of Signals Driving down Kingston Hill there are plenty of crossings which can be used to demonstrate the various different types of crossings and the rules applying to road markings. Planning issues can also be addressed on this route. Areas to do manoeuvres The Reverse around the Corner exercise can be carried out where High Drive meets either Overdale Avenue or Woodlands Avenue. The parallel park can be done in High Drive. The Turn in the Road is also easily demonstrated on High Drive.
