Will I be able to drive a manual car with an automatic licence?

No – so think carefully before you decide to learn how to drive in an automatic car.

Even once you’ve passed your automatic driving test, you’ll only be allowed to drive cars and vans that have an automatic transmission or dual clutch system.

With the rise of electric vehicles this is becoming less of a drawback than it used to be but it’s worth thinking about how you plan to use your driving skills in the future before you commit to anything.
