Using our training centre means that you are likely to improve your driving skills. This is because we only use qualified trainers, which are able to identify where you need to improve and ensure you pass your driving test.

Some of our recent passes on our trailer towing courses have passed the first time with only one driving fault. To get one driving fault is is considered a great pass and in fact we would consider all passes to be a great pass. This is because that no matter how good you feel, there may always be something that happens on the test.

So if you feel you want to pass the first time, then you should call us today and book your towing training. Call 07818 408336 or you can email us.

What is included in a Trailer towing course?

As one of the leading trailer towing course providers in your area, you can be sure of quality training. We have a first time pass rate of around 89%, which is better than the national average. Your trailer course means you will benefit from a driving instructor who knows all about how to pass your driving test.

During our course you should learn how you can tow trailers safely. Once you pass your driving test, you can tow a trailer over 750kg and up to 3,500kg. As there is more weight, it is important to know how this affects your vehicle. On our trailer towing course, you can learn the following and more;

• How to safely uncouple and re-couple a trailer onto your tow vehicle.
• How to deal with a vehicle where the combined weight could be up to 7,500kg, depending on your tow vehicle.
• The importance of forward planning and making effective progress.
• You should learn about the safe handling of a trailer while cornering, accelerating and braking.
• An improved ability to reverse a trailer, whilst under full control and good observations.

If you wish to tow more than 7,500kg , then you would need to obtain a C1 or C driving licence. We have course to obtain these and then add C1+E and C+E. Ask one of our team all about what you can tow on your driving licence. Call 07818 408 336 or email the team. More on our C1 courses.

Trailer Towing Course Weekdays and Weekends

If you are looking to take your trailer towing course at the weekends, then we can accommodate this too. Tests can be booked at the weekend, but we usually work between 0800-1600 to accommodate this. At the weekend thought, there is an increased test fee from the DVSA. At the weekend the test fee is £141.00, instead of £115, which is the weekday fee. Our hourly rate increases by £5.00-10.00 per hour, depending on your course and requirements. This is to ensure we can get the correct standard of tuition to meet your needs.

Arranging training and tests at weekends can be problematic, as the DVSA only has limited tests at weekends. We can usually can arrange the training with a reasonable amount of notice, so just call one of the team. The team can accommodate all requests, as they are very flexible. We can also arrange training on a Sunday, but it is useful to give plenty of notice.

Book your trailer towing course

To book your trailer towing course, there is no need to take another driving theory test. Please make sure that you have an up to date current UK driving licence to book your practical driving test, because the examiner cannot proceed without one.

On your towing course, you can expect our qualified driving instructors to deliver;

• One to one trailer course training in our vehicle and trailer.
• Reversing practice, so that you can reverse under control with no more than 2 shunts forward.
• Identify where you need extra practice, so that you can pass the first time and have no more than 15 driving faults.

It is recommended that you revise the Highway code. This is because it may be a while since you took your driving test and may need to recap.
