Does code 78 apply to my parents' cars too, or only to the lesson car?

All cars with automatic transmission, so at home too: if your parents' car is not a manual, you may drive it with code 78 just the same. More and more households drive automatics or electric nowadays, so the code rarely gets in the way in practice.

Why would I drive automatic in Oegstgeest instead of manual?

Because here you drive among cyclists, schools and busy connecting roads, and without a clutch all your attention goes to the traffic itself. Pupils who like that reach driving sooner and wait less long for their exam. If you still want manual afterwards, we arrange it within the same school.

Can my lesson in Oegstgeest start at school or my internship in Leiden?

Yes, you decide the starting point: at home in Poelgeest or Langevoort, or at your study or work towards Leiden. Once the lesson ends you are returned to that same address. Because Oegstgeest lies so close to our base, lesson times here are extra flexible to schedule.

What driving automatic in Oegstgeest feels like

Oegstgeest is compact, but its traffic is not: between Poelgeest, Haaswijk and Langevoort, quiet residential streets alternate with busy connecting roads towards Leiden and the motorway. In an automatic you keep those transitions apart effortlessly — your feet handle gas and brake, and your eyes stay on the cyclists and schoolchildren who are everywhere here.

Because our home base is around the corner, your lessons start on time and immediately drive the routes you use daily: from the Rijn-Schie canal area to your school or work in Leiden. After a few lessons the car feels like your own, and then the exam comes into view naturally.
