Automatic LessonsBroadstone is where test prep starts
Constitution Hill is a steep climb with buses and Luas tracks at the bottom. Phibsborough Road feeds into Doyle's Corner, one of the busiest junctions on the northside. The Luas Green Line runs through Broadstone, crossing the road at grade level. Add in the King's Inns traffic and you have a learning environment that demands concentration from the first minute.

12 EDT lessons on Broadstone roads
Your EDT starts on Blessington Street and builds to Western Way Luas crossings, Phibsborough Road, and Constitution Hill before your Finglas test.
L1-2: Car Controls on Blessington Street
Blessington Street is residential with parked cars on both sides and a calm pace that suits first lessons. The gentle slope towards the Basin is a low-pressure introduction to uphill starts. Narrow but manageable, it gets you using your mirrors from the off.
Learn about EDTL3-4: Direction on Western Way
Western Way cuts through the TU Dublin Grangegorman campus with Luas tracks, pedestrian crossings, and speed restrictions all in a short stretch. You learn to read multiple types of road marking and give way to trams before they become a stressful surprise.
EDT detailsL5-6: Positioning on Bolton Street
Bolton Street is one-way from Broadstone down to Capel Street with bus stops and tight lanes. Miss the correct turn and the detour through the city centre adds ten minutes. Navigating one-way systems and reading advance direction signs are the focus here.
Test preparationL7-8: Traffic on Phibsborough Road
Phibsborough Road carries heavy bus traffic towards Doyle's Corner with camera-enforced bus lanes and cyclists throughout. You build lane discipline and learn to read ahead for position changes before the Doyle's Corner junction, one of the most demanding on the northside.
Test preparationL9-10: Junctions on Constitution Hill
Constitution Hill is steep, busy, and unforgiving on the clutch. Traffic lights at the top and bottom mean hill starts under pressure are guaranteed. Bus lanes reduce available road width. By lesson ten, starting on this hill should feel routine.
View optionsL11-12: Night Driving towards Finglas
The later EDT lessons include the route from Broadstone via Phibsborough towards Finglas. You cover the roads the examiner uses at Finglas Test Centre, including the approach from Cross Guns Bridge. Evening light conditions add the final layer of preparation.

Passed at Finglas: Broadstone learners
I had the pleasure of doing my pre-test with Richard. I completed my pre-test in the Mulhuddart area. I had picked up some bad habits before my test such as not checking my mirrors and changing to second gear too late. Richie fixed all these bad habits I obtained and told me where was going wrong. He was very attentive and covered every single detail for the test. Thanks to Richard, I was able to pass the test.
Rachel took driving lessons with RSA School of Motoring. I recently passed my test with the help of my amazing driving instructor Richard. He was exceedingly calm and put me at ease, while also being very thorough in all his explanations. He was very accommodating in scheduling lessons and very knowledgeable about the test routes in Mulhuddart which put me at ease before test day. Would highly recommend!
Toby took driving lessons with RSA School of Motoring. Had a pre test with Richard. He took me around different routes for the Mulhuddart test centre. He gave me valuable feedback and wrote it down aswell so I could look at it after and try to fix my mistakes. Very professional and helpful. Passed first time.
David learned to drive with Richard in the mulhuddart area. I recently completed a number of pretest lessons with Richie. His outstanding level of expertise, teaching and calmness allowed me to recently pass my driving test at the first attempt in Mulhuddart. His guidance and knowledge of the test routes allowed me to improve my driving skills massively in a short period of time and help me pass my test. Thanks a lot for all the help Richie !
