Intensive Driving Courses
Select this option for our intensive courses including our unique Pass N One Week Courses.
Training courses are planned out intensively over 1-4 weeks leading up to a pre-booked test date.
You'll book the intensive course first, then book your driving test. Once a test date has been secured, and you've communicated the test date to Pass N Go, all your training sessions will be planned, this happens around 6-8 weeks prior to your test date.
If you haven't passed your theory test yet, once you buy the course, you can purchase a theory test separately from us and we'll book that for you first, then, after that has been passed, we'll plan your course. Intensive courses have a higher pass rate due to the nature of compacting your training into a shorter timeframe allowing you to retain more information between training sessions.

Learning to Drive in Sandwell
Learning to drive in Sandwell offers a full Black Country driving experience.
You transition between industrial corridors in Oldbury, dense residential grids in Smethwick and Tipton, and high-speed link roads connecting the borough to Birmingham and the wider Black Country.
Lessons here focus on Black Country navigation — mastering large multi-lane junctions, busy town-centre traffic, and confident merging onto major arterial routes.
Our DVSA-approved instructors teach across Oldbury, Rowley Regis, Smethwick, Tipton, Wednesbury, and West Bromwich. Lessons focus on real local driving — not rehearsed routes.
Manual and automatic lessons are available, with prices starting from £22 per hour.
Why Driving in Sandwell Tests Your Range
Sandwell test routes expose poor planning and weak observation.
Your driving test may include:
- The Burnt Tree Junction — one of the most complex junctions in the region.
- West Bromwich one-way systems with frequent traffic-light changes.
- West Midlands Metro interactions near Wednesbury and West Bromwich.
- High-speed dual carriageways such as the A41 and A4123.
- Industrial traffic and HGV movements.
- Narrow terraced streets in Smethwick and Tipton.
- Independent driving using sat-nav or road signs.
Examiners expect early lane choice, disciplined observation, and steady progress.

Top Tips for Sandwell Roads
Read road arrows early
On junctions like Burnt Tree, lanes are exit-specific. Stay in the lane you’re in.
Watch average-speed cameras
Large sections of the A4123 and A34 are enforced.
Give HGVs space
Industrial traffic swings wide at junctions.
Master meeting traffic
On Smethwick side streets, pick your gap early.
Check for trams
Metro lines have priority near Wednesbury and West Bromwich.
Manual or Automatic Lessons?
Manual lessons suit learners who want full licence flexibility and control on varying gradients such as Rowley Hills.
Automatic lessons are ideal for Sandwell’s heavy commuter traffic, allowing more focus on road layout and observation.
Your instructor will advise what suits you best.
