there are a lot of factors involved in this question - not least of which is the geographical location of the learner. Although it should not matter it could be easier and quicker to pass a driving test in the wilds of Scotland than in the centre of Manchester.
Secondly - driving is not just about the mechanics of handling a vehicle (whilst that is extremely important) it is about learning to behave correctly, anticipation, forward thinking, understanding how road surfaces affect the vehicle etc.- a lot of which comes down to one vital thing - EXPERIENCE
Personally, speaking as a professional driver of some 20 years heavy vehicle experience and with many thousands of miles under my belt - i don't feel that the average driver gets enough experience before being let loose in what is, in reality, a lethal weapon.
So Missy A take your time and learn the craft properly and remember Practice, Practice, Practice - good luck - DAve
