Start with a trial lesson.
In a trial lesson you drive yourself, with the instructor beside you. You get to know the car and find out whether the way of teaching suits you. Then you decide, in your own time, whether to continue.

Frequently asked questions
How much is a trial lesson?
A trial lesson costs €50. You pick a time from the available slots and pay for the lesson.
Automatic or manual: what's the difference for your licence?
If you pass in an automatic, your licence gets code 78: you may only drive automatics. To drive a manual later, you take the practical exam again in a manual car (CBR). Not sure yet? Ask about it during your trial lesson.
How many lessons will I need?
It differs per person. According to the CBR, learners in the Netherlands need 41 hours of lessons on average. Our packages have 10, 20 or 35 lessons.
Can I take several driving lessons in one week?
Yes, absolutely! At Safety1st you can take several driving lessons in one week.
Can I pay for my lessons in instalments?
Yes, you can pay in instalments. To find out how it works, get in touch with us or ask during your trial lesson.
From what age can I take driving lessons?
You can take driving lessons from 16.5 and the theory exam from 16. The practical exam is possible from 17; until you turn 18 you then drive with a coach aged at least 27 who has held a Dutch car licence for 5 years (CBR).
Can I take lessons in English?
Yes. Lessons are in Dutch, English, French or German. You can also take the CBR theory exam in English.
