What’s the difference between a manual and an automatic car? You will discover that most cars are available in both manual and automatic versions, but what’s the difference?  You will also find that many manufacturers are offering their automatic models in electric and / or hybrid versions too. You won't however find a manual version of an electric or hybrid car. So basically when you compare an automatic against a manual, it’s down to the gearbox. With a manual car, you’ll have to change gears yourself with the aid of a clutch and gear stick, while an automatic car changes gears by itself, depending on the speed you are travelling, rate of acceleration and revs. When comparing the function of automatic and manual manual cars you will find that an automatic has just two pedals - the accelerator and brake. Where as the manual has a gear stick and a third pedal to operate the clutch. Because of these extra components, manual cars are more difficult to learn to drive in than automatic...

Its important for a driver to input safety margins to take control of the car that compensate for human error, minor lapses in concentration and the mistakes made by other road users. By having this system in place should help you maintain control of your vehicle in a coordinated comfortable way. A smooth and controlled Driving approach can reduce fuel consumption up to 10%. Keeping revs below 2000 and taking your foot of the accelerator going down hill can reduce fuel consumption up to 30%. Avoiding driving with car windows and sunroof open reduces drag and saves fuel. It's more efficient to use the aircon than keep windows open on long journeys. Use cruise control or a speed limiter when you can as this can also help reduce fuel consumption.

This blog post was developed by 4front Driving School to help students take a positive, determined and focused approach towards their learning and driving so they give themselves the opportunity to succeed and achieve their goals. The facts can be presented in a simple way - the harder you work for something that you desire such as passing your Driving Test, the greater you’ll feel when you achieve it. Stay focussed and plan well ahead of the consequences before you turn your decisions into actions. You will develop your own strategies to suit different senarios that you should try to remember, adapt and develop to suit the situation if you ever face them again. Learning to drive involves commitment, time, patience, and determination, so give it everything you have got and don't be despondent by mistakes. Mistakes are part of learning and give you something to work on. When learning to drive it is important to reflect back on mistakes you make. Mistakes are normal and as we just sa...

Speed Limits At 4front Driving School we encourage our students to be observant towards speed limit signs and look out for the change of speed which is more likely to be placed at the junction to a new road, but can also appear at points on a long carriageway too. National Speed Limit This sign indicates that the national speed limit applies, which is for cars 60mph on a single carriageway or 70mph on a dual carriageway or motorway. It doesn’t necessarily mean that the road is safe to do 60mph or 70mph all the times – there may be sharp bends and other challenging sections, especially on a single carriageway road. Therefore you as a driver have a responsibility to judge the safest speed to suit the road and the driving conditions.  To begin with when learning to drive we say to our learners to drive at a speed they feel comfortable with. Once you have built up your confidence you can aim towards achieving a safe speed to drive at. Remember it can also be dangerous driving to s...
