Make Intensive Courses Easy with Tonbridge Driving School

Kent Intensive Driving School has instructors based near Tonbridge offering intensive driving courses across the town and nearby areas. If your test is booked at the Tunbridge Wells Driving Test Centre, we will structure your lessons around the test routes and the types of roads you are likely to drive on.

We have supported many learners from Tonbridge, Hildenborough, Hadlow and the surrounding villages. Our instructors use their local knowledge to identify the best spots for practising manoeuvres, complex junctions and different road conditions that reflect real test scenarios.

Tonbridge offers a mix of road types that help you build a solid foundation in practical driving. During your course, you will experience:

  • Town driving through central Tonbridge and surrounding areas like Southborough and Cage Green where you will work on timing, road positioning and roundabout use
  • Practise on major routes such as the A26 and A21 to develop safe merging, speed control and lane discipline
  • Residential zones ideal for slow-speed control and key manoeuvres including parallel parking and turn in the road
