How to Drive an Automatic Car in the UK
Learning to drive an automatic car is often seen as easier and less stressful than a manual, especially for beginners and nervous drivers. At Acorn School of Motoring, we specialise in automatic driving lessons across Blackburn, Darwen, Accrington, and Preston, helping learners build confidence and pass their test smoothly.
Understanding Automatic Car Controls
An automatic car has a much simpler setup than a manual. Here’s what you’ll typically find:
Brake pedal (left) — to slow down or stop
Accelerator pedal (right) — to speed up
Gear selector — usually marked as P (Park), R (Reverse), N (Neutral), and D (Drive)
Unlike a manual car, there’s no clutch pedal, and you don’t need to change gears while driving. The car does it for you.
Steps to Drive an Automatic Car
Start the car — Make sure your foot is on the brake and move the gear to ‘D’ (Drive).
Release the handbrake — Most modern cars have a button or lever for this.
Slowly lift your foot off the brake — The car will begin to move forward gently.
Press the accelerator carefully — Increase your speed smoothly as you gain confidence.
Use the brake pedal to slow down or stop — Always keep your right foot for both pedals.
Move the gear to ‘P’ when parking — This locks the car in place.
