Driving school always kicks off with theory studies. Online lessons are spoken in Finnish and subtitled in English.
The instruction includes two (2) driving lessons with a simulator to practise driving in slippery road conditions and driving in the dark. We will book these after you sign up. You will receive a text message confirmation of the simulator driving lessons with the PIN code for the lesson. Follow the instructions during the simulator lessons.
Please contact our customer service to book driving lessons, unless they have been booked in advance by the driving school. The course includes two (2) driving lessons with the driving school’s car together with your own driving instructor. In particular, the driving lessons will strengthen the ability to identify and avoid dangerous situations in traffic and factors that may increase the risk of accidents by reducing the driver’s ability to drive.
For an additional fee, you can complete all driving lessons with a real car and complete track practice on the driving practice track.
