Can the instructor take me on the test route?

How many lessons will I need to pass my test?
This will depend on a number of different factors; the amount of previous experience you’ve had, whether you have access to a car outside of lessons that you can practice in and how much time you can allocate to learning to drive.
An instructor will need to discuss this with you and will most likely need to assess your current driving ability to give you an accurate answer.
