FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Answers to the questions we are asked most often.
What do I need before my first driving lesson?
A valid learner driver's permit. To obtain it in Switzerland you take the first aid course, have your eyesight checked and pass the theory exam. If you don't have it yet, get in touch — we'll explain the steps.
How long is a lesson?
Every lesson booked online lasts 45 minutes.
How do I book a lesson?
Choose your training, then a date and a time among the slots that are really free. Enter your details, confirm, and you'll receive a confirmation email straight away.
Book a lesson →How many lessons will I need?
It depends on each person: your ease behind the wheel, how often you drive and any private practice. The first lesson is used to assess your level and give you a realistic estimate.
Can I cancel or move my appointment?
Yes. You can cancel online up to 48 hours before the lesson using the link in your confirmation email. To move an appointment, call us on +41 79 940 08 09 and we'll find a new slot together.
Where does the lesson start?
When booking, you can enter your preferred meeting point (address, station, workplace…). Adnan confirms the meeting point with you.
Manual or automatic gearbox?
Since February 2019, passing the practical exam in an automatic car in Switzerland also allows you to drive a manual car. Ask us if you have any questions about your situation.
Where can I take the first aid and traffic awareness courses?
The first aid course (10 h) and the mandatory traffic awareness course (8 h) are taken with our partner My Driving School in Geneva. Registration is on their website.
