Speed Management for first-time test candidates in Northolt

How we teach speed management

A speed limit is a maximum, not a target; safe drivers continually adjust to what they can see and reasonably expect. For first-time test candidates, the priority is being genuinely ready to drive independently rather than memorising a route.

• Recognise speed-limit changes
• Match speed to hazards and visibility
• Use acceleration and braking progressively
