The Tipperary angle
Why learn automatic in Tipperary
Tipperary is the dual-carriageway and four test centres.
Tipperary has more RSA test centres than most counties. Clonmel sits in the south on the N24. Nenagh on the the Limerick Road dual-carriageway. Thurles in the centre. Tipperary town to the west. The Cork to Dublin dual-carriageway runs through the county. Most learners practise locally; the examiner routes use the sliproads and the school zones.
dual-carriageway approach merge
Tipperary routes use the dual-carriageway approaches with traffic at 100. Automatic gives you the gear; you read the gap.
Town stop-start
Clonmel, Nenagh and Thurles all have town-centre stop-start with bus traffic and parked cars. Automatic creeps with the flow.
Hill starts on the gradient
South Tipperary has real gradient. Manual roll-back loses marks. Automatic with hill-hold keeps the car still.

Automatic driving lesson reviews
Real learners. Real instructors. Passed in an automatic.
I passed my driving test on the first attempt with Jonathan Martinez in an automatic, and I would strongly recommend him to anyone looking to build their confidence behind the wheel. As a nervous and inexperienced driver without my own car, I had tried lessons with other instructors and schools.but Jonathan and were by far the best fit. Their booking system was the easiest to use, and the lessons were structured, supportive, and tailored to my pace. It's clear that Jonathan genuinely cares about helping learners become safe, confident drivers.not just passing a test. His calm, encouraging approach made all the difference. My lessons were between Dublin 12, Tallaght, and finally in Dun Laoghaire.Passed test
I recently completed additional driving lessons with Derek Verso to boost my skills and confidence beyond the 12 EDT lessons, before my test (passed at first attempt - automatic). It was a truly positive experience. Derek was patient and really helpful in identifying areas for improvement. Scheduling was easy, and Derek was always reliable and communicative (thanks Derek!) Previously, I also completed my 12 EDT lessons at with John McCabe, which was equally positive. Would highly recommend both instructors!EDT
I had the pleasure of getting automatic driving lessons with Steve and passed my test today. He's a great teacher and a lovely guy to spend the lessons with.Passed test
