who we are
Not just a driving school. A co-operative.
Founded in 1989, Driveaway is one of Cambridge's longest-running driving schools and the only co-operative one in the region. Every instructor holds a stake in the business, which means their success is tied to yours. No shortcuts, no box-ticking. Just genuine, patient teaching.

Built different
DVSA approved instructors
Every instructor meets national standards — and our co-op holds them to even higher ones.
Flexible around your life
Early mornings, evenings, weekends — we fit around you, not the other way round.
Especially good with nerves
Many of our students arrive anxious. Our instructors are patient, calm and experienced with nervous learners.
Clear, transparent pricing
No surprise fees, no hidden charges — ever.
Chris is a brilliant and patient instructor with whom I always felt very comfortable.

Additionally he is just a lovely guy to chat to! I passed my test first time with him :)
