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.

About Driving Lessons in North Devon
Driving in North Devon requires a balance of town awareness, rural road control, and confidence on coastal routes. Learners often encounter narrow country lanes, busy market towns, and faster A-roads connecting communities across the district.
Key North Devon Driving Challenges
The A361 North Devon Link Road
This major route connects Barnstaple with the wider Devon road network. It includes higher speed limits, merging traffic, and frequent roundabouts. Learners must demonstrate strong lane discipline, safe overtaking awareness, and early observation of road signs.
Barnstaple and Bideford Town Traffic
The town centres of Barnstaple and Bideford feature busy junctions, roundabouts, and pedestrian crossings. Learners must show good anticipation around shoppers, buses, and cyclists while maintaining smooth positioning through built-up areas.
Coastal Routes Around Ilfracombe and Woolacombe
Driving near the North Devon coastline introduces winding roads, changing gradients, and seasonal tourist traffic. Maintaining steady speed control and careful positioning on narrower roads is an important part of developing confidence.
Rural Devon Lanes
Much of North Devon is connected by narrow countryside lanes with limited passing places. Learners must demonstrate patience, strong observation, and the ability to judge safe gaps when meeting oncoming vehicles.
Changing Weather and Road Conditions
The coastal location means weather conditions can change quickly. Rain, strong winds, and reduced visibility require drivers to adjust speed, increase following distance, and maintain careful control of the vehicle.
