Preparing For The Road

Start young, have fun, stay safe.

At Mercedes-Benz Driving Academy we believe that the younger you start learning to drive, the safer you’ll be on the road, That’s why we give young people every chance to get valuable experience under their belts well before their 17th birthday.

So if you’re at least 1.5m tall, you’re old enough to join the Academy and begin your exciting journey towards becoming a safe, confident driver for life.

Our curriculum is based on the latest thinking in driving tuition. It’s a step-by-step system covering 190 defined skills, designed to give you the best possible preparation for the road.

As a beginner you’ll start at Silver Level, concentrating on the basics; pre-driving checks, car controls, adjusting your seat and mirrors, moving away and steering. If you are interested in our approach read more here.
