Dromiskin junctions: what learners work on
The R132 / village junction
The village turn off the R132 ring road south of Dundalk. The T junction is the kind of feature where observation tends to slip if a learner hasn't worked it before.
We run this junction in the EDT lessons before the pretest, so by test day it's a repeat. Most Dromiskin learners build their confidence here on the way in and out of Castlebellingham.

What our learners say
I chose RSA because of the reviews I saw here and I couldn't be more satisfied. I am currently having lessons with them. I couldn't be more happier with the way my instructor Tom is giving me lessons. He explains everything very well, tells you what to do in different situations with a smile every time. He is a great guy. I will probably recommend this driving school to everyone.
I recently passed my test and my instructor was William Rooney. this man is more than qualified to make you pass the test, he handled himself with complete and utter respect, professionalism and diligence. he has more than a few tricks up his sleeve to help anyone pass the test, all while he makes sure your safe on the road. I recommend to anyone who needs lessons to give Will a call, while I was on the waiting list for a year I didn’t do a single lesson and 3 days before the test I had a 2 hour lesson with will and he had me good to go. thanks again Will and I wish you the very best in all aspects of life ( I do recommend you do more than a 2 hour lesson especially 3 days before test on top off the 12 you need )
Jonathen Martinez is an incredible instructor! 🚗✨ He guided me every step of the way and helped me pass my driving test on the first try. 🙌 I’m so grateful for his support! 😊 …

Driving lessons in Dromiskin: frequently asked questions
What's the price of driving lessons in Dromiskin?
A single manual lesson in Dromiskin is €53.27. The 12-lesson EDT package is €587.95. Automatic lessons are €61.41 per hour or €659.24 for twelve. Full pricing here.
Will my EDT lessons cover the R132 ring south of Dundalk?
Yes. The R132 / village junction, where the village turn comes off the ring road south of Dundalk, is on every Dromiskin lesson. The R171 link east toward the coast and the R166 corridor extends the working stretch on early lessons. EDT detail.
Are automatic lessons offered out of Dromiskin?
Yes. The Dundalk automatic instructor reaches the village in thirteen minutes. €61.41 per hour, €659.24 for the 12-pack. Same R132 working stretch in either gearbox. Automatic page.
Could a female instructor cover Dromiskin?
Often. Dromiskin sits close enough to Dundalk that the female-instructor rota usually carries weekday slots. Tell us on the contact form when you book and we'll match you to the closest free slot.
Is there a fee for being picked up in Dromiskin?
No. The R132 run out from Dundalk is on the school's clock. The hour begins outside your front door, not at the depot. The trip down the ring road doesn't come off your lesson time.
How long is the trip from Dromiskin to the Dundalk test centre?
Roughly thirteen minutes, nine kilometres up the R132. Pretest lessons rehearse the exact route as the morning warm-up so the road into the Carrickmacross Road on test day is one you've already driven.
Will I drive the round tower stretch and the village green?
Yes. The narrow village street past the high cross and the round tower is a low-difficulty section we use for slow-speed control. The R171 east turn is the higher-difficulty signal practice. We loop both during early lessons until the routine settles.
