How Many Hours a Day Should You Spend Learning to Drive?
2 Answers
Under normal circumstances, the maximum accumulated driving practice per day is 4 hours. Here are the specific details about driving school training: 1. Theoretical Hours: Subject 1 Theory: 12 hours; Subject 2 totals 26 hours, including 2 hours of theory, 3 hours of simulated driving, and 21 hours of practical training; Subject 3 totals 40 hours, including 16 hours of theory, 4 hours of simulated driving, and 20 hours of practical training. 2. Flexible Training Time: Normally, the maximum accumulated driving practice per day is 4 hours, but in reality, driving schools can arrange flexibly based on the student's schedule. Practicing for one hour or two hours a day is also acceptable.
I remember when I first started learning to drive, my instructor suggested practicing for one to two hours a day was enough. Any longer and it was easy to lose focus or get backaches. On my first day, I practiced for three hours and ended up being nervous even when pressing the brake. Later, I got used to practicing in segments—like one hour in the morning for basic gear shifting and another hour in the afternoon for turning, with a long break in between to let my body recover. Learning to drive isn’t about rushing; it’s about muscle memory. The key is to practice over several days—progress comes faster on average that way. On weekends, I’d add an extra hour of practice, but there’s no need to force it on busy weekdays. Pay attention to sleep and diet—efficiency is higher when you’re in good condition. Don’t let driving become a source of stress.
