12 legally required special lessons · per 45 minutes
B197 The minimum 10 manual lessons of 45 minutes are a separate part of B197 training and do not count toward the 12 special lessons. As a rule, the special lessons are taken in an automatic car. Your manual lessons also give you general driving practice, so you may need fewer additional practice lessons. How many more lessons you need is individual.
