Fuel prices in the UK are at the highest they have ever been both for petrol and diesel. With the average price of petrol at 139.1p and diesel 143.2p it's not a wonder that people are struggling to run their cars. But what is making the fuel prices soar so high?

The main reason why candidates fail due to an observation fault can be summed up in just one word - Familiarity. This can mean either lack of familiarity with a particular junction or more commonly, over-familiarity. If you get used to a junction being clear, you may find that you don't check as often as you should. You can almost guarantee there will be a car approaching when you didn't look. By the time you do see it, it's too late and the fault is already committed.

The information here is specific to the UK. If you are learning to drive in another country, you will probably have a similar system, but you should check with your local driving authority.

The DSA state on their website that it requires an average of 45 hours of professional driving lessons combined with 22 hours of private driving practice to pass today's driving test. In my experience the more "focused" private driving practice a person gets the less professional driving lessons they need and therefore will save you money. Given the average hourly driving lesson price is around 25.00GBP, if you multiply that by 45 it means your average person will spend around 1100GBP, not including any driving test fees. In the same way we have homework at school to expand on our knowledge of a subject, private driving lessons watford practice should do the same for driving skills. Driving is a practical skill so by its very nature it takes practice to get it right.

If you take driving lessons from a driving school instead of learning to driver with a parent, you will save on car insurance. Many insurance companies will give you a deal if you take driving lessons. They believe you will be a better driver if you do. You will make fewer mistakes and you will not learn any bad habits that your parents may have. It costs money to take driving lessons but what you spend will be well worth it in what you can save on insurance.

In more unusual cases the road layout may be a bit confusing. One of the roads in my local area fits this description. As you look down the road it appears to head toward a set of traffic lights, but on closer inspection, there is a give way line some sixty metres before the lights as the through road curves in from the right and up to the driving lessons watford lights. You are in fact in the side-street and need to yield. Although I deliberately take all of my pupils to this junction for the experience, a couple of them have still been caught out due to bad weather conditions or lack of concentration.

Another part of the new driving test which you may not be too crazy about is the fact that theory questions will no longer be published. Pupils were just learning the questions and answers to the theory test and not learning the meaning of the answers. They were not learning the information. Starting September 2011 the questions and answers will no longer be published anywhere. You will have to read books or watch DVDs to learn the information and remember it.
