Learning to drive in Prestonpans
The B1348 running through Prestonpans and on into Cockenzie and Port Seton is deceptively demanding: parked cars on both sides, frequent crossings, buses and a steady flow of oncoming traffic. It builds the meeting-traffic judgement that examiners look for from the very first lessons.
A couple of minutes inland, the A1 and A198 offer completely different conditions — higher speeds, slip roads and lane discipline. Being able to switch between the two in one lesson is a big part of why Prestonpans learners tend to progress quickly.
Musselburgh test centre is a short drive away, so test-route practice is straightforward and doesn't eat into your lesson time.
