Do you pick me up in the village itself too?

Yes, throughout Waddinxveen: at your home, at your school or where you work. Because the village is compact, your lesson starts with driving rather than travelling — the lesson car is at your door and you step in wherever it suits you.

Isn't a village too limited to practise in?

On the contrary: Waddinxveen offers a surprising amount of variety over a short distance. There are the 30 km/h zones in the districts, the business traffic at Coenecoop, the bridges over the Gouwe and the open polder roads. Precisely that mix makes your driving style broad enough for the region.

What does the trial lesson in Waddinxveen cost?

The trial lesson costs you nothing and you're tied to nothing: you meet your instructor, drive a loop through the village yourself and afterwards hear honestly how many lessons you're likely to need. Continuing only happens when you say so; then we look at a package together.

Driving in Waddinxveen

What your first lesson in Waddinxveen feels like

Waddinxveen is a village of two halves: the Gouwe runs straight through it and the lift bridges connect one side to the other. We pick you up in Triangel, Bomenwijk or Oranjewijk and start your trial lesson in a quiet spot near home, where you get to know the car without traffic looking on. First the basics, then: controls, looking ahead and building up your speed calmly.

From there the lesson grows with the village: the narrow streets around the Dorpstraat, the Coenecoop business area by the Zuidplaspolder and the open polder roads beside it. In one free trial lesson you cover Waddinxveen's whole palette, from 30 km/h zone to through-road.

Why a trial drive in Waddinxveen is different here

In Triangel and Groenswaard we build up routine first, before heading for the Gouwe and the polder.

The lift bridges over the Gouwe belong to Waddinxveen; you learn to judge when to wait and when to carry on.

Around Coenecoop you practise the mix of lorries, roundabouts and through-traffic on the edge of the Zuidplaspolder.

2toDrive lets you drive from sixteen and a half in Waddinxveen — handy alongside school or a part-time job.
