EDT lessons shaped by Stoneybatter village driving
Every lesson uses real Stoneybatter roads. Aughrim Street, Manor Street, and the routes through Phibsborough to Finglas Test Centre.
L1-2: Controls and Positioning
The first two lessons happen on the residential streets off Hendrick Street. Quiet enough for cockpit drills and steering practice, these roads introduce you to tight gaps and on-street parking without the volume of Manor Street.
Learn about EDTL3-4: Direction Changes and Speed
Aughrim Street is the setting for lessons three and four. With cars parked on both sides you learn to read who has right of way, judge passing gaps, and signal your intentions early. Low speed, high concentration.
EDT detailsL5-6: Complex Positioning and Hazards
Stoneybatter main street itself becomes your classroom in these lessons. Delivery vans double-parked outside shops, pedestrians crossing mid-street near cafes, and the constant need to judge width make this one of the best hazard training environments in Dublin 7.
Test preparationL7-8: Sharing the Road and Traffic
Manor Street introduces you to bus traffic and shared road situations. You practise pulling out around stopped buses, timing your merge, and holding position in moving traffic on a route that feeds directly towards the Finglas test roads.
Test preparationL9-10: Complex Junctions and Speed Management
Prussia Street and the North Circular Road junction combine in lessons nine and ten. The NCR has filter arrows, bus lanes, and multiple exits. Getting it wrong means a long loop. You will practise the approach until the lane selection is automatic.
View optionsL11-12: Calm Driving and Night Conditions
The final lessons build from Stoneybatter through Phibsborough to the Finglas test route. Night and low-light awareness is practised on the longer Manor Street stretch. By lesson twelve you know every metre of your test route.

Stoneybatter main street is where your spatial awareness gets tested from lesson one. Parked vans outside shops, pedestrians stepping off kerbs, and oncoming traffic that requires one car to pull in. Your instructor will have you reading the street before you are halfway through your EDT.
We pick you up at the main street, Hendrick Street Park, or the Manor Street bus stops. Grangegorman Luas stop is also an easy meeting point if you are coming from the TU Dublin side.
Manor Street carries Dublin Bus routes into the city and the stops create constant lane-change situations. Prussia Street links you to Cabra with a school zone, speed ramps, and a junction at the North Circular Road that needs careful approach work. Aughrim Street adds single-file negotiation to your skill set.
