Theory test before lessons? Or lessons before theory test?
My wife did driving lessons for months and studied the theory CD at the same time, then took the theory test when I finally blaggarded her into it with the threat of no more lessons. She's just about ready for her driving test now I think.
I don't really think somebody could pass the theory test without having ANY driving experience/lessons.
She's had three different instructors now, but the current one is a woman and seems really cool. It's £20 a lesson, but you only get 50 minutes driving, though there always seems to be a few minutes parked up and waffling at the start and end, apparently discussing what they are going to do during the lesson.
A good command of the English language is fairly necessary here, as our local neighbourhood Indonesian girl is finding out. Both her English words are of no use in driving: 'food', and 'eat'
