Learning to drive in Wakefield: local roads and test centres

Our intensive courses start at the McDonald’s on Dewsbury Road (A638). On day one, your instructor will take you to a quiet residential area to start with the basics like getting into gear, braking, turning, stopping and starting.

As you progress, residential streets in Lupset and Flanshaw nearby bring parked cars and junctions with limited views. This will help with your hazard perception and turning.

Later in the week you’ll venture onto the M1. It runs west of the city, with junctions 39, 40 and 41 all close by, and the A61, A636 and A650 carry fast traffic in and out. The inner ring road, including Marsh Way, Ings Road and the Westgate roundabout, brings multi-lane approaches and frequent lane changes where you’ll be able to master you look, signal, manoeuvre, driving at speed and generally getting a better field for busier roads with more drivers. 

Wakefield’s practical test centre is a short drive from your pick-up point. Routes often use Dewsbury Road, Marsh Way and residential areas such as Wrenthorpe and Lupset. We’ll cover this during your intensive week.
