Terms and Conditions

Please find all of our terms and conditions listed below. 

Entitlement to take lessons

  •  You must hold a valid U.K provisional driving licence and be legally entitled to drive.

  •  Full U.K licence holders can take refresher lessons or Pass Plus.

  • Your driving instructor reserves the right to withhold lessons if he or she suspects that you are not legally entitled to drive.

  • You should always carry your licence when taking lessons.

Instructors and payment

  • Drive53.com instructors are self-employed franchisees and offer only 2 hour lessons. In exceptional circumstances 1 hour lessons may be offered at the discretion of the instructor. All instructors have been selected for their commitment to customer service. When you take lessons your contract/agreement is with your instructor personally and it’s their responsibility to provide you with all services you have paid them for. It is also your responsibility to pay your instructor for all lessons taken. (Either in advance or at the time of the lesson.) Advance payments are discounted with the block payment rates.

​

  • Prices for lessons are published on this website and may be changed from time to time to allow for inflation and extra costs.
     

  • Payment is made direct to your instructor by cash or bank transfer. Whichever manner you make payment, your contract/agreement is always with your instructor, not Drive53.com.

  • Any student offers are limited to one per new student and cannot be used in conjunction with any other offers. Whilst every effort is made to accommodate requested booking times, all pre-paid lessons are subject to availability. 

Intensive driving courses

  • Drive53.com does not promote the booking of more than 2 hour lessons at any one time. This is mainly because most students will have trouble concentrating for longer than 2 hours and thus waste their time and money.

​

  • What we suggest is to book 2 hour lessons on consecutive days direct with their instructor. We do not charge extra for our method of intensive lessons.

Booking lessons

  • Initial lessons are normally booked by telephone or through the email facility on the website. After this all lessons are agreed on an ongoing basis direct with your instructor. Instructors are highly qualified people who’ve had to pass several exams to earn their licence to give tuition. Lesson content is based on what is best for your progress in their professional opinion. When booking lessons please remember that you are paying for their time.

Cancellation of lessons

  • Should you need to cancel a lesson, your instructor must be informed direct. If less than 48 hours’ notice is given, he/she reserves the right to charge for lost time.

Driving Test Bookings

  • Driving tests should only be booked with the prior agreement of your instructor. You will only be taken for your test if your instructor believes that you have reached a suitable standard of driving before that date. This is your instructor’s sole decision. If you decide to cancel a test it must be made more than three working days ahead of the date or you will lose your booking fee.
