Truck Driving Experiences
Trucks dominate the motorways of Britain, transporting goods anywhere and everywhere, they are the undisputed kings of the road. We are excited to give you the opportunity of driving these transport titans in our Truck Driving experiences. Take part in a series of exercises including driving around challenging slalom courses and performing manoeuvres, all while under expert instruction by one of our specially trained instructors.
These 480bhp mighty machines present the ultimate motoring challenge for any driver, their size, weight and power mean drivers need expert levels of control to keep them on the straight and narrow. You can experience this incredible challenge that is undertaken by thousands of professional truckers every day.
Children as young as ten have the opportunity to experience life behind the wheel of a lorry or truck with our junior truck driving experience. But whether you’re old, young or somewhere in the middle you don’t need any previous experience of driving as you are in a safe and controlled situation with your experienced instructor on hand.
Movie fans can also enjoy our Optimus Prime Truck Driving Thrill experience which will allow you to get behind the wheel of the iconic Autobot leader from the Transformers series of films.
