Places to Practise with a Learner Driver Driving   practice   is   so   much   more   than   quick   trips   to   the   corner   store   or   guiding   a   car down   a   divided   highway.      Good   practice   requires   that   the   Learner   Driver   experiences   a variety   of   situations   as   their   skills   develop.      The   following   are   only   suggestions,   but please note the different types of driving that are being practised.
