What am I licensed for with code 78 in Voorburg, and what not?

You are licensed to drive every car with an automatic gearbox: petrol, diesel, hybrid or electric. Only a car with manual gears stays off your licence for now. If you do want to drive one later, a practical exam in a manual follows and the code is off the map.

Does my instructor choose for me: automatic or manual for my exam?

No, that is a joint decision in which your feeling counts. The instructor sees where your limits lie and gives honest advice, but you choose the direction. In doubt halfway? You first take a few lessons in the other car — at the same school, with the same instructor and the same pace.

Does the lesson car in Voorburg also park at my kerb?

Yes, wherever you live or work: Voorburg-West, Voorburg-Midden, Essesteijn, Bovenveen or 't Loo. You are picked up and brought back after the lesson, so you only have to free up the lesson time itself. In a village as compact as Voorburg the car is often at your door within minutes.

Driving in Voorburg

What driving automatic in Voorburg feels like

Voorburg has the character of a village with the traffic of a city: around the historic core you come face to face with cyclists and crowds, while the motorway along its southern edge carries you in one movement to The Hague or Zoetermeer. An automatic fits that perfectly — you brake smoothly between tram crossings and cruise along the motorway.

Your first lessons begin in the calm of Voorburg-West, Essesteijn or 't Loo, where the car becomes familiar in peace. Then we take on the village core, the school zones and finally the through-route. By the end of your trajectory you drive the entire route you will soon make daily as a Voorburg motorist.
