We simulate the exact conditions of the RSA driving test, covering everything from technical “under the bonnet” questions to the specific test routes at Mulhuddart or Finglas RSA test centres. We identify your “Grade 2” habits and fix them before the examiner sees them.

Frequently Asked Questions about Automatic Driving Lessons
How many EDT lessons do I need for an automatic driving test in Ireland?
Regardless of whether you choose manual or automatic, the RSA requires all learners to complete 12 Essential Driver Training (EDT) lessons. At Driveability, we specialize in automatic EDT lessons to help you progress faster through the syllabus.
Can I use a Driveability automatic car for my driving test at Maple House?
Yes! We provide car hire for the driving test at Maple House and Mulhuddart (N3/Maxol). This includes a pre-test lesson immediately before your exam to ensure you are comfortable and confident.
Is the driving test easier in an automatic car?
Many students find the automatic test easier because it eliminates the risk of stalling and the complexity of gear changes. This allows you to focus more on observation and road positioning, which are key scoring areas in the Dublin 15 test routes.
What areas in Dublin does Driveability cover?
We provide automatic driving lessons across Dublin 15 and Dublin 11, including Castleknock, Blanchardstown, Tyrellstown, Ongar, Clonee, and Finglas.
What are the most common challenges on the Mulhuddart test routes?
The Mulhuddart test routes are known for a mix of busy N3 dual carriageway merging, complex roundabouts near Blanchardstown, and narrow residential estates like Whitestown. Many students fail due to poor observation on speed bumps or incorrect positioning at the Damastown roundabouts. Our pre-test lessons focus specifically on these “fail zones” to give you the best chance of passing first time.
