FAQS

Questions Asked by Crash Course Learners

Start Driving Now

Is there a crash course near me in Greater Manchester?

Impulse runs crash course driving lessons across 30+ areas of Greater Manchester, with door to door pick up so your course starts at your address. We train on the routes used by Cheetham Hill, West Didsbury, Sale, Bolton, Bury, Bredbury and Chadderton test centres.

Is a driving crash course the same as an intensive course?

Yes. A driving crash course is an intensive driving course under a different name: the same one to one lessons, packed into days or weeks at 4 to 6 hours a day instead of one lesson a week. Crash course, intensive course and fast pass course all describe the same thing.

How much does a driving crash course cost in Manchester?

Driving crash courses in Manchester start at £375 for a 6 hour retest course with Impulse. The 10 hour course is £550, the 20 hour £1,195, the 30 hour £1,650 and the 40 hour £1,995. Every course costs the same manual or automatic.

How many hours is a driving crash course, and how many a day?

A driving crash course runs from 6 to 40 hours in total, taught at 4 to 6 hours a day. The 6 hour course takes 1 training day plus your test. The 40 hour course suits a complete beginner and takes 7 to 10 training days.

Can you pass your driving test in one week?

Some learners do. The 6 hour crash course is 5 hours of training plus your test, run over about a week for learners already close to test standard. If you want consecutive days, the one week driving course runs 6 hours a day across 2 to 7.

Is a driving crash course good for complete beginners?

Yes, with enough hours and the right pace. A complete beginner needs the 30 or 40 hour course, spread across 3 to 8 weeks rather than squeezed into days. Anyone selling a beginner a 6 hour crash course is setting them up for a retest.

Does a driving crash course with test include the test fee?

No, and no driving school can include it. The DVSA practical test fee is paid to the DVSA, £62 on weekdays and £75 evenings and weekends. A driving crash course with test covers test booking support, car hire for the practical and the hour set aside on the day.

Do you offer crash course drivers ed in Manchester?

Drivers ed is the American name for learning to drive, and the UK has no classroom version. Here you need a provisional licence and a theory test pass, costing £23, before a practical test. A crash course is the fastest way to prepare for that practical.

Can I pay for a driving crash course monthly?

Yes. Every driving crash course can be split into monthly instalments through Payl8r, with no credit check to apply. That covers all 5 courses, from the £375 retest course up to the £1,995 beginner course. Your exact plan is confirmed at checkout.

What happens if I fail my driving test after a crash course?

You can book additional hours before a retest, and the DVSA retest fee is £62 on weekdays or £75 evenings and weekends. Learners who want the tuition cost fixed however many attempts they need choose the Guaranteed Pass course at £2,995, unlimited hours for a year.
