With the stresses of everyday life and the roads getting busier, now is a great time to be driving an automatic car.
You may be a complete beginner, or someone who has had a go at manual and found it wasn’t the right fit. No matter your level, we can cater for you, and promise you of a fantastic learning experience.
How many of your friends have told you about stalling, and how they hated it? In an automatic car you cannot stall, as there is no clutch, so when you come off the brake and press the accelerator, off you go with no delay.
Simple enough in an automatic car, as soon as you move your foot from the brake to the gas, the car will move, none of this constant clutch movement, putting on the handbrake and finding the biting point, you just calmly move feet from one pedal to the other. And another plus – no rolling backwards!
Peartree Green has its share of busy roads, junctions, roundabouts, traffic lights and built-up areas, where you will be in traffic a lot of the time during your driving lessons, particularly during rush hour. In an automatic car it’s simple – we cannot make the traffic disappear, however you can control the car easier, reducing pollution, and easier on your feet and legs, as no constant clutch control.
At Lendrums Driving School we understand the financial pressure on students, so we offer discounts on driving lessons and block bookings, to help you budget more easily, and we are among the few driving schools covering Peartree Green that offer driving lesson discounts. We cover all areas, and can pick up and return to college/university, so if you have study gaps in the day, or once you have experience, we can pick you up from home and finish at the college/university and vice versa from college/university to home.

If you are a student at college or university, we can collect you during study breaks, taking you back to your studies or home once your lesson’s done, plus we can pick you up from home and drop you at college or university, once you have some experience on busier roads.

Peartree Green, a charming suburb in Southampton, offers an excellent environment for new drivers to develop their skills. With its blend of quiet residential streets and access to busier arterial roads, this area provides the perfect balance for learners to progress confidently from basic manoeuvres to more challenging driving scenarios. Consequently, many driving instructors recommend Peartree Green as an ideal starting point for those beginning their journey towards a full licence.
As learners build confidence, they will encounter Southampton’s network of roundabouts, which are essential to master before taking the practical test. The nearby Peartree roundabout and connections to the A3024 offer valuable practice in lane discipline, signalling, and observation skills. Furthermore, busy roads such as Northam Road and the routes leading towards the city centre provide realistic experience of dealing with traffic flow, pedestrian crossings, and varying speed limits, all of which are crucial for developing safe driving habits.
Once qualified, new drivers can enjoy exploring what Southampton has to offer. The historic Southampton Old Town, with its medieval walls and vibrant waterfront, makes for a rewarding drive. Additionally, the SeaCity Museum and Mayflower Park provide excellent destinations for weekend excursions.
Southampton’s nightlife scene, particularly around Ocean Village and the city centre, offers newly qualified drivers plenty of reasons to venture out. From restaurants to live music venues, having a licence opens up numerous social opportunities.
Ultimately, Peartree Green provides an ideal foundation for learner drivers, combining practical road experience with proximity to Southampton’s attractions, ensuring a smooth transition to independent, confident driving.
Everyone learns at a different pace, but on average it takes around 45 hours of lessons, plus plenty of practice, before you’re ready to pass.
