Is there any good driving instructors around the Dublin South / UCD area, who would be willing to give a (possibly just one) lesson to a full licenced driver on motorway driving, dual-carraigeway driving with heavy traffic, etc.?

Don't have my own car.

It could be worth posting in the motorbikes forum for recommendations too, as the majority in here would be learning to drive cars.

Anybody knowing a good C/C1 instructor with their own vehicle in the Galway City area please PM.

I would prefer to only do the C1 but obviously I know that few instructors would have a C1 vehicle so I'll take any C license instructor!
Thanks

Hi all, I'm looking for a recommendation of a driving instructor around the Castleknock or Glasnevin areas.
I'm starting from scratch, don't own my own car (yet ) and I guess I'd like to start off in a dual-controlled car!
If anyone has had a good experience with an instructor somewhere around Castleknock / Glasnevin / nearby areas, I'd appreciate your recommendation. Especially if you know of someone with a good first-time pass rate! :cool:

Looking for an instructor, preferably approved by the RSA, in South Dublin/Churchtown route. Someone who can deal with an extremely nervous driver who can't change lanes or park would be great!

PS My instructor was 30 euro per lesson which is pretty good value. He always gave about 1.5 hours too.
