    Zero To Driver In No Time At All: Here’s How

    Hitting the age when you can start to drive is an exciting time. Often you find yourself itching to get on the road and feel more independent. Leaving the woes of public transport in your rear view mirror. But, hitting the age of consent is one thing, actually learning to drive and obtaining your licence is another thing entirely. In these cases you find yourself looking for the fastest route. No one wants to be having lesson after lesson and not only financially causing you issues, as well as prolonging your chance of getting out on the open road. I thought I would provide you with the tips to help you go from zero to driver in no time at all.

    Obtain a provisional license

    One of the first steps to driving is to obtain your provisional license. There are some stipulations even to get this. You need to be able to read a car number plate from 20 meters away, provide ID which is normally your passport, and be able to provide details of address and your right to drive in the country. Some countries have different laws as well as having staple regulations per state or zone. So always ensure you check your personal local websites to find out more information.

    Find a driving school or local instructor

    Once you have what you need to start driving then the next stage is to find a driving school or instructor to actually teach you how to drive. It isn’t as simple as you might think. There are a few different options you could consider. You may need to tackle one to one lessons and book a bulk amount in advance. Perhaps considering driving courses as another option. One thing is for sure that one on one lessons are the best answer to ensure that you pick up the necessary skills and information to pass your test.

    Study for any theory tests involved

    Theory is a big part of a driving examination. You need to study to ensure that you are familiar with road laws and traffic acts to ensure that you can drive safely on the public roads. Some people find this element of the driving test simple, whereas others can struggle to remember vital information in emax conditions.

    Practice makes perfect

    Like anything, practice is always going to help you learn more and gain more confidence on the road. But, it can also be a big financial burden to constantly be having lessons with an instructor. This is why it may be worth speaking to an adult like a parent and asking whether they would be willing to take you out in their car a few times. Practicing in a quiet location, especially some of the tricky maneuvers and parking, could help you to ensure that you pass the practical exam, when the time comes.

    Invest your time and concentrate in your lessons

    It goes without saying, but driving isn’t something that is just going to come easily to you. There is much to think about when in control of a vehicle, and investing your time and effort into concentrating on your lessons and information that is given to you is essential. You don’t want to be one of those people that has had to have hundreds of lessons and several attempts at passing examinations before you can drive.

    Set yourself a goal for when you pass

    Sometimes if you have a goal in mind, it makes things easier when it comes to achieving something. The same could be applied to driving. Is there something you’ve always wanted to do and driving would make it simple? Or perhaps you are fed up of public transport options. Maybe there is a dream car you want to own. Set yourself a goal and remind yourself of why you want to pass your test.

    Take the test with confidence

    Finally, having invested your time and efforts into driving, and being responsible for your own learning journey, you should be in a position to take your driving test with ease and confidence. It isn’t always easy for everyone who does it, but once you learn it can be like riding bike. It often isn’t something you easily forget how to do. Sometimes in these cases, it might be worth building up on your personal skills in confidence levels and positive thinking. Often negative thinking can give you exactly what you don’t want in life.

    I hope that these tips and guidance helps you go from zero to driver in no time at all.

    • Aston Martin calls it the 'fastest luxury SUV in the world' and 'the supercar of SUVs' but is the DBX707 worth all this hype?

It is the fastest and most powerful SUV you can currently buy (order) in SA so there is that but the reality today is that the 707 will have to dice with the Urus, the Bentayga Speed, and the Cayenne Turbo GT for hearts, minds, and wallets.

Aston estimates 65% of DBX sales going forward will be this 697 hp (520 kW) and 900Nm variant and after driving it, this might be an underestimate. If the regular DBX is in your price range, then you can almost certainly afford a DBX707.

It can hit 100 km/h in 3.3s and go to a ridiculous 310 km/h so, of course, it is properly quick but it is just as impressive when the roads get twistier and it instils an enormous amount of confidence in the driver.

If you fancy snapping up this contender for the Super SUV king title, you are going to need at least R5m making it significantly more expensive than the Lambo and Porsche counterparts but you will be driving something a lot more rare which could be the reason you hand your money to Aston Martin.

What do you all think?

    • The new BMW M240i xDrive barely puts a foot wrong. The price is right, it's crushingly quick, more than practical enough to daily and if you only look at the front, it is very easy on the eye 😉 

It pulls properly hard, doesn’t feel turbocharged in its response, and delivers thrills when you want them. The extra confidence and pace afforded by the sweet pairing of the straight-six petrol engine and the rear-biased xDrive AWD system make the M240i an enticing proposition all of its own.

If you gave any BMW fan a wish list and asked them to build the perfect car given the company's current resources, it probably wouldn't be too far off this one.
