🎉🎉Congratulations to Colin Bagnall on passing his practical driving test earlier today. 🎉🎉

Colin has been a dedicated student who has always shown enthusiasm and determination when attending all his lessons.

Currently Colin works for Flintshire council so commuting to and from his place of work will now be more easier for him.

Colin also loves to ride motorcycles in his spare time and likes travelling up to Barmouth and west Wales on his weekends that he has off from work.

So from your driving instructor Eric Ellard and all the team at Nigel Richards Drivibg School I wish to congratulate Colin once again on his excellent achievement and wish him all the best in the future. Take care mate and hope to see you on the road soon, time to celebrate 🥳 🥳

One of the most common questions we get asked, do we have female instructors? ✅
Yes, and you're completely allowed to ask for one. No need to feel awkward about it.
Confidence, comfort, or just preference, whatever the reason, it's normal and we sort it all the time.
DM "NRDS" and we'll get you matched

E.ON Next research found that 55% of 17–20-year-olds want their first car to be electric, and 23% say owning a petrol car is as outdated as using a landline. 👀

A cassette player? Essential. A map book? Glovebox treasure. Stalling at a junction? A moment many of us remember!

Today’s learners might be thinking charging cable, not cassette adapter. But some things never go out of date: observation, good judgement and staying calm. Clutch or no clutch, those skills still matter, and they’re what we focus on at NRDS.

What did your first car have that would make a 17-year-old laugh? 👇

🎉🎉Congratulations to Tommy Williams who passed today work just 2 speedy minors! 🎉🎉

Even with his feet being caught under the dashboard.

Will look forward to seeing you on the road in a van you can fit into and will miss the leisurely drive and funny conversations.

Well done again Tommy! Well deserved from your instructor Steph and the whole NRDS team

🎉🎉Congratulations to Juliana Costa on passing your Practical Driving Test on the 2nd attempt on Saturday, 17th October 🎉🎉

Awesome driving, getting 3 minors

A lot of hardworking, but today Juliana got there and passed her driving test in what was a great drive

The next job is sorting a car out and she can make hers and her young daughters life easier instead of catching bus after bus to make it anywhere

It's been a pleasure getting to know you, pal

Well done, Juliana from your instructor Jamie Pritchard and all the Nigel Richards Team

Apparently, 17-year-olds have the edge on the driving test… but your birthday doesn’t decide your result 👀

DVSA age figures show pass rates of around 63.5% for 17-year-olds, compared with below 39% for learners over 40.

That’s a gap worth noticing, but older learners bring life experience, and a clear plan can help build confidence at any age. At NRDS in Wrexham, our proven 4-Stage System uses 45 essential steps and 4 mock tests to help you prepare for test day and aim for that first-time pass.

What do you think matters most when learning to drive: confidence, practice, or a good playlist? 🎶

A first-time pass made even more special by the patience, kindness and encouragement of the right instructor. 🚗🎉

At NRDS, we know that learning to drive is about more than mastering the controls. Having an instructor who helps you feel calm, supported and confident can make all the difference.

Here’s what this learner had to say:

“My time learning to drive with Nigel Richards driving school was great. My instructor was really helpful, patient and kind, thanks to her I was able to pass my test first time. I would wholeheartedly recommend this driving school for anyone wanting to learn!”

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience, and congratulations on such a brilliant achievement! 👏
