About Dublin Driving Institute

Paul and Ruairi. North Dublin. EDT, pretest and Killester test prep.

Who we are

We're a small school on the Northside. Pickup from home, dual-control cars, and most of our lot sit their test at Killester on Howth Road.

Usually people hear about us from a neighbour who passed, or they find the Google reviews. That's Paul and Ruairi.

Both are fully qualified ADIs. EDT only counts if it's signed off by an ADI, so have a look at the permit on the windscreen when we turn up.

The instructors

Paul

He's the one people mention after they pass first time at Killester, including a few with no faults. If you've a date booked, ask for Paul. He knows Howth Road, Collins Avenue, the coast road out of Clontarf, and the busier bits around Artane and Raheny.

Ruairi

Ruairi takes a lot of complete beginners through the 12 EDT sessions and then up to a proper mock test. Same school, same prices, same pickup. Just got your permit? Start with him.
