Car lessons for Leopardstown learners

All car lessons are in my manual, dual-control school car, at €45 an hour and booked as two-hour sessions. Leopardstown sits between Sandyford, Foxrock and the M50, a short drive from the Dún Laoghaire test centre. Lessons can start from home or from work, which suits the many people here who fit lessons around office hours.

Learning to drive around Leopardstown

The Leopardstown Road and the roads around the business parks are wide and busy, with lots of lane changes, traffic lights and roundabouts. The M50 at junction 14 and the Luas crossings add more to think about, so this is a good place to sharpen lane discipline and planning ahead.

We balance that with the quieter estates around Leopardstown Valley and Ballyogan for manoeuvres and the basics, so you’re never thrown into busy traffic before you’re ready.

Why Leopardstown workers learn to drive

Thousands of people work in the Leopardstown and Sandyford business parks, and many of them moved to Ireland for the job. The Luas gets you into town, but getting home to other parts of Dublin, or out of the city at the weekend, is much easier with a licence.
