Crash & Intensive Courses

Chris Kelly is the largest independent driving school in Merseyside, offering weekly driving lessons and Crash Courses throughout the Wirral, including Ellesmere Port and Chester, as well as Liverpool and St.Helens.

Crash Courses, also known as FastPass or Intensive Driving Courses, are very very popular as Chris Kelly is the Inventor of the crash course way back in the 80s and pupils have been taking these courses since then!

We have many different courses to offer ,from the 1 or 2 week to the 3 to 5 week course or the very popular 6 to 8 weeks.

All courses are tailor made to suit the individual needs.

All Instructors have been specially trained the Chris Kelly way.

Please see below for details of the available Crash Courses and Intensive Driving Courses we currently offer to Learner Drivers in the North West.

Our biggest course is the complete beginner's courseIt generally consists of approx 40 lessons which can be taken as quickly as you need to pass

It is more difficult for a novice to reach test standard in a very short space of time than it is for an experienced pupil, this is why it is vital that you are taught by a highly skilled and experienced Driving Instructor and an Instructor who has experience of teaching Crash Courses.

All tests on the Crash Course are booked at the very start of the course and in most cases tests will be booked before you even meet your Driving Instructor for the first time!

Past my test today first time round and just wanted to say a massive thank you to Andy . He is a fantastic instructor. So easy going and puts you at ease straight away. Have had such a laugh and learnt to be a confident driver all down to Andy. I could not recommend Andy enough.

If you haven't passed the theory test this will delay the crash course,so it is best if you came to us with your theory test pass certificate

  • If you have no Theory Test Pass Certificate, we will apply for the Theory Test immediately and advise you on how best to attack the Theory Test, so that you can pass first time. This will enable us to then book your Driving Test.
  • The law states that you cannot book your Driving Test until your Theory Test has been passed, so we always book the Theory Test on the first lesson, which means that we can arrange your Driving Test appointment in the shortest possible time.
  • Aside from the delay in booking your Driving Test, it is well advised to pass your Theory Test before your first Driving Lesson, as this will give you time to let the knowledge sink in.
  • If you are looking for the quickest possible result, we recommend that you get your Theory Test out of the way well before you start your Crash Course!
