Don't Panic. Our Dungarvan Driving Instructors Can Train You To Beat The Driving Test

Getting butterflies in your stomach before your driving test is totally normal!

You'll always feel nervous if you don't feel ready.

Don't let these feelings of inadequacy before the driving test weigh you down. Take action.

Trust in the power of thorough preparation, including both driving skills and mental readiness, to carry you through any challenges.

The standard procedure by most driving schools in to encourage regular practice, mastering the rules of the road, taking mock tests, memorising test routes and learning driving tester procedures.

And all of this is essential of course. But we think it is equally important to develop a positive mindset, to focus on the present moment, and not get bogged down in negative thoughts or emotions.

Taking the time to prepare and using the right strategies can help you feel more in control and less nervous during the driving test.

How Do We Help You Pass The Driving Test in Dungarvan?

THE
RSA
WAY

Resilient
Stoic
Attitude

What is The RSA Way?

The RSA Way is straightforward and easy to understand. We help our learners develop a resilient stoic attitude when facing the challenges of learning to drive. What do we mean by a resilient stoic attitude? A resilient stoic attitude is the combination of practical skill development and a positive mindset that allows individuals to face the challenges of learning to drive with confidence and control. The RSA Way's practical approach helps you to sharpen your driving skills and knowledge, undeterred by the fears, mistakes, and unpredictable road conditions one can face on test day. The mental aspect of The RSA Way coaches us to manage stress and emotions, maintain a positive outlook, and focus on what can be controlled. The RSA Way is the ultimate solution to conquer the obstacles of both learning to drive and passing the driving test. It's not just about getting behind the wheel and passing the driving test, it's about developing a mindset that can be applied to overcome any obstacle in life.

Practical Preparation

The RSA Way's practical approach is geared towards equipping learners with the skills needed to ace their driving test on the first try.

By providing a simulated test environment through a series of mock tests, learners are given the chance to experience and learn how to navigate test-related nerves.

By simulating the real test environment and evaluating your performance, mock tests provide instructors with valuable insight into the areas where you need improvement, enabling them to tailor their teaching and support accordingly.

By following a step-by-step approach, The RSA Way package simplifies the process of passing the driving test and eliminates the need for guesswork.

Your instructors have been working with you to help you identify and correct your mistakes, but it's important to remember that the driving test is a different experience altogether.

Keep in mind that during the test, the examiner will only speak to give instructions, leaving you to navigate and handle any situations that may arise on your own for approximately 30 minutes.

It's an unnerving environment if you are not prepared for it.

The practical aspect of The RSA Way package is tailored to help you become a skilled and confident driver by providing you with hands-on experience in the test environment, as well as giving you insight into the tester's perspective and what they expect to see from you.

Focusing on the practical aspect of The RSA Way can help you to pass the driving test with ease and peace of mind.

Mindset Preparation

The RSA Way mindset course complements and enriches the practical aspect of The RSA Way package, giving you the mindset, attitude and tools to pass the driving test and achieve your dreams.

Together, the program offers a comprehensive approach that will ensure you are thoroughly prepared for both the technical and mental aspects of the driving test.

The RSA Way mindset course is the key to unlocking the benefits of a resilient stoic attitude while driving.

Developing mental resilience and emotional stability through the RSA Way mindset course can be crucial in navigating the stress and unknowns of the driving test and on-road experiences.

The approach includes a series of exercises and lessons that are designed to help learners to accept and deal with adversity, regulate their emotions, focus on what can be controlled, and develop inner strength and self-discipline.

The course equips learners with the tools to gain a broader perspective and maintain a calm attitude in difficult situations, resulting in improved mental and emotional well-being.

The RSA Way not only teaches you how to pass the driving test but also equips you with a resilient stoic attitude that can be applied in different aspects of your life.

Embracing the ability to accept and move forward in difficult situations can greatly enhance your overall well-being, regardless of whether it's related to work, personal life or relationships.

THIS IS THE WAY!

I Only Need To Hire A Car For My Driving Test in Dungarvan

Some of our driving instructors in Dungarvan are happy to simply hire the car to you for the driving test without the need of taking a pretest lesson.
  • There are plenty of reasons why that might be needed. You've done your pretest preparation but you don't have a car to use for the test.
  • You planned on using your own car but one of the following issues has come up:
    • Road Tax out of date
    • Warning light on dashboard
    • Tyres too soft or worn
    • Insurance disc out of date
    • No NCT
    • Brake light not working
    • Indicators flashing white instead of yellow
    • Broken mirror

Opting to hire a car for the test ensures you get a fully insured and dual-controlled car with a guarantee to meet the standards of the examination. That means you arrive at the test knowing that you are at the very least are not going to fail because your vehicle is not up to scratch.

    One may determine their suitability to take a driving test by utilising the online assessment tool offered by the Road Safety Authority (RSA) on their official website, MyRoadSafety.ie.
