Our son has an August birthday and started driving lessons on his 17tg birthday last year, but he is quite nervous and was hindered by not getting extra practice as we didn't get him his own car until Christmas time (ours is automatic and a company car so he couldnt learn in that). He has been making good progress since but is still nervous and not ready for his test. He currently isn't doing anything this month as he didn't want any lessons during his alevel exams. He will pick up again after exams but I'm coming to the conclusion that he isnt going to get his test passed before he goes to uni. So what do we do? I realise there will have been a lot of the covid generation who would t have been able to get it done before they went so I'm interested in your experiences. I can't get my head around it. I know we won't be able to afford his lessons for him as well as his living costs when he has gone but Im gutted at the thought of all that money and effort and him stopping altogether..I think I will ring his instructor at the weekend and see what he thinks but just wondering if anyone has any ideas...
