Made an enquiry using the website and received a call back the same day with the contact details for Carol who has been an exceptional instructor. Always been on hand to answer any questions and always went into lots of detail in order to best prepare me for my test. Carol has always gone above and beyond to make me as safe and as comfortable on the road as possible. I would highly recommend Carol and the AB driving School as I have passed first time with them.

Today I passed with AB Driving School with the best experience, I had the same instructor all the way through my lessons which was with Sandra king and she made the lessons very fun and enjoyable. I always felt at ease and supported, highly recommended.

I have just passed first time with the amazing sandra king fromAB driving school. Not only did sandra help me pass first time but also took me under her wing from a previous instructor when I lived in Preston. Sandra showed me different techniques to use to make driving seam easy and less complex. Highly recommend to anyone. Thank you so much sandra!!!

I have just passed with ab driving school, reading some of the reviews on here my experience was alot different. My instructor was on time for every lesson, he kept intouch letting me know what was happening. In the car he made things as simple as possible. I am a hard learner when it comes to driving and didn't enjoy lessons before starting with ab driving school and they got me through the test. I would recommend to everyone.

Just passed my practical test this morning first time with only 3 minors. So thrilled. Bev has been absolutely wonderful helping me get over my anxiety driving and super-humanly patient - our driving lessons basically became low-key therapy sessions. Took a year from start to finish (final year of uni + moved countries in the middle) but I'm almost sad to finish lessons. Thank you so much Bev. Thoroughly recommend.

I highly recommended Chris ball from ab driving school. Always kept me calm always explained everything to me nothing was ever a problem. It took me a good few times to pass my test (through my own faults) but he never let me give up and I did it. I not only had the best driving instructor Ive made a friend for life and I cant thank him enough.
