Welcome to the Smart Way

Hello and welcome to The Smart Way website, home of one of the premier Driving Schools in the West Lothian and Fife areas!  The reason we claim this status is that we offer a wide variety of driving tuition and driver training services, and always conduct all company business in a wholly dignified and professional manner.

Our services range includes:

  • Fully structured practical driving lessons in both manual and automatic cars 


  • We offer driving lessons for complete beginners, to those pupils who find themselves between driving instructors, or to those who think they are nearly ready for their driving test, but want a professional driving instructor's advice before they go for it. 


  • We have female driving instructors for those who would prefer to have their lessons from a lady. 


  • We offer the post L-test "Pass Plus" training for those who wish to save money on their first years car insurance.


  • We offer discounts on lesson prices for those making block bookings. Lessons can also be paid for by credit card - see our prices page on the navigator menu to the left.


  • We offer a variety of intensive driving courses for those with a pressing need to pass their driving test quickly.


  • We offer Post test refresher lessons for people who have not driven for a while or who are coming back to driving after a medical lay off.
  • One of our manual learners cars and our automatic learner vehicle, parked in Livingston

  • We can offer training to potential driving instructors, (PDI's) getting them to the standard required to pass the ADI part 2 driving test.


  • We offer training to qualified drivers looking to gain further driving qualifications such as the RoSPA, IAM or Diamond advanced driving tests.


  • We can run bespoke Corporate/Fleet driver assessment and training, ranging from driver risk assessment, defensive driving courses, through to eco driving techniques to save fuel and money. We have SAFED Scotland accredited instructors.

My name is Ray Lynch, I am the owner and chief driving instructor for The Smart Way. I have been a fully qualified driving instructor since 2003, I am an experienced DSA Fleet registered instructor, (i have run several advanced driving courses in conjunction with Knockhill racetrack for corporate clients) and I also recently completed the coveted NVQ Level 3 in Driving Instruction. These advanced instructor qualifications make me one of the highest qualified driving instructors in Livingston, and the surrounding West Lothian areas; currently only around 6% of driving instructors in the whole of the UK hold the advanced Fleet Instructor qualification.

During a recent expansion in our instructor line up, Mandy Belcher and Colin Slight have joined our team of driving instructors.

Our manual diesel car parked up in the West of Edinburgh Mandy is a fully qualified driving instructor and will join me in providing driving lessons in the Bathgate, Armadale and Livingston areas, and the generally throughout West Lothian. Mandy will also be available to those students who would simply feel more relaxed being taught by a female instructor.  

Colin is a fully qualified driving instructor mainly based in the Fife area, he also holds the coveted NVQ Level 3 in Driving Instruction. He will give driving lessons in Rosyth, Dunfermline, Inverkeething and the surrounding areas in Fife.  

Please contact us for full details of the availability of all our instructors at times that are convenient for you. 

 

When the demand is high enough we also run unique evening class theory test courses for those students who are struggling with, or are afraid of, the theory element of the test. These night classes have been well attended in the past and The Smart Way of structured learning has paid dividends. Compared to a national average pass rate of approximately 63% the pass rate among students who attended this course rose to 92%!



As of Ocbober 2008 we have added an automatic car to our range Anyone can attend these night classes, you don't have to be a pupil with The Smart Way driving school - all are welcome, and we promise NOT to pressure you into taking lessons with us after. Of course, if we have impressed you, then we ALWAYS welcome new students. These classes are usually held in local adult education centres in Livingston.

For more information on these courses, including start dates of the next course, click on the Theory Test Evening Classes link in the navigator bar to the left.
