With everyday life being as stressful as it is and the roads becoming busier, now is a great time to be driving an automatic car.
You may be a complete beginner, or someone who has taken manual driving lessons and found it was not for you. Whatever 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, since there is no clutch, so when you come off the brake and press the accelerator, off you go with no delay.
Piece of cake in an automatic car, as soon as you move your foot from the brake to the gas, the car will move, forget about constant clutch movement, putting on the handbrake and finding the biting point, you just calmly move your feet from one pedal to the other. And another plus – no rolling backwards!
Redbridge 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 more easily, less 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 one of the few driving schools covering Redbridge who offer driving lesson discounts.

We offer FREE online theory and hazard perception training for all customers, to help you pass your theory test easily.

Plenty of the people we teach find that doing the theory training in parallel with their driving lessons helps everything click into place, because what you study online is exactly what you’re practising on the road.
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 collect from home and drive to college or university, once you have some experience on busier roads.

Redbridge is a vibrant suburb of Southampton that offers learner drivers a unique and practical environment to build their confidence behind the wheel. With its blend of residential streets, busy roads, and access to major routes, Redbridge provides an ideal setting for new drivers to develop essential skills before venturing further afield.
One of the most valuable aspects of learning to drive in Redbridge is the opportunity to master roundabouts and negotiate busy roads. The area sits close to key routes leading into Southampton city centre, meaning learners quickly become accustomed to merging traffic, lane discipline, and reading road signs effectively. Consequently, by the time test day arrives, students often feel well-prepared for the challenges examiners are looking to assess.
Beyond the practical driving lessons, Redbridge’s location means learners can plan practice routes that take in some of Southampton’s popular attractions. From the historic city walls to the bustling waterfront, driving through these areas helps students become comfortable with varying traffic conditions and pedestrian-heavy zones.
Once you’ve passed your test, Redbridge’s proximity to Southampton’s city centre opens up a world of possibilities. The nightlife scene offers everything from cosy pubs to lively bars, while shopping centres, restaurants, and entertainment venues provide plenty of things to do for newly qualified drivers eager to explore their independence.
Ultimately, learning to drive in Redbridge equips students with practical, real-world skills while offering the added bonus of exploring everything Southampton has to offer once they’ve earned their licence.
This varies from person to person, but most learners find it takes around 45 hours of lessons, plus plenty of practice, before you’re ready to pass.
