A refresher driving course is short and intensive, designed for licensed drivers of any experience level who want to improve or learn new driving skills. Lessons can either cover drivers’ specific problem areas or more general driving techniques. The goal is for every driver to feel confident in their knowledge and abilities, making driving safer for everyone.
Each individual has different comfort levels, driving habits and decision-making abilities, meaning how someone feels behind the wheel varies from person to person. Below are some examples of how doing refresher driving lessons can improve each individual’s experience on the road.
Whatever the reason for wanting to brush up on your knowledge, RED tailors the lesson to your needs, offering bespoke sessions that address your particular problem area. Unlike generic driving lessons, this tailored experience means that you’ll be able to focus on what’s most important to you in refining your driving skills.
Our RED refresher driving lesson is short and intensive, lasting only 6 hours. This means you’ll be able to hone your skills in a very short amount of time and get back on the road quickly and safely.
We know that drivers taking refresher courses can be especially nervous, and therefore need to be matched with instructors who will be sensitive to their needs. Many of our RED driving instructors have been trained by us, so we know that you will receive high-quality service. This means that you will receive empathetic and constructive advice on how to overcome the difficulties you’re facing.
At RED, we pride ourselves on the bespoke, premium service we offer: we’re extremely proud to have been voted as Intelligent Instructor's Driving School of the Year for two years running. We also ask for feedback from our learners, to ensure they’re happy with our services, and better understand their experiences and needs. As a result, we’ve earned a 4.7/5 rating on Trustpilot from over 15,000 reviews.

Our refresher package is a 6 hour session, and we aim to give you the advice you need to build your skills in that time. However, if you still don’t feel fully confident, we recommend booking further sessions until you do feel ready to go on the road again: lacking confidence behind the wheel can be both dangerous for you and other drivers, so take as many lessons as you need.
We understand that not everyone in the UK’s first language is English, and that shouldn’t stop you from refreshing your driving skills. We also know that it’s especially important that our refresher courses can be taught in many languages, catering to those who have moved from overseas and want to learn the rules of the British roads. As one of the largest driving schools in the UK, we offer all of our lessons in dozens of languages. Use our contact details and call us to book your refresher course in a foreign language.
If you drive as part of your job, the government advises workplaces to offer refresher driving courses to their employees: check your workplace policy to see if this is already available to you, and at what intervals. Or, if you want to refresh your skills, ask your employer if they can arrange it for you: they might cover some of the cost if they think it’s essential.
Learning to drive in a manual car is not for everyone – for many people, automatic driving lessons are a better option. RED is here to provide you with expert automatic driving instructors and get you on the road safely, comfortably, and quickly.
