Practical driving,
explained step by step.

Get ready for your UK driving test between lessons. Watch each skill in 3D, read the steps, then check yourself with a short quiz.

Three complete lessons, free. Manual or automatic.

Reverse-bay parking Free

Open lesson
Layna’s reverse-bay parking demonstration: the car reversing into a bay, shown beside the steering wheel and pedals.

How a lesson works

Every practical lesson follows the same three steps. This one is from the junctions lesson.

  1. Layna’s 3D Give Way lesson: the white learner car waits at a T-junction, indicating left, as a blue car approaches from its right.

    Watch it in 3D

    Pause, replay and switch views, from overhead to the driver’s seat.

  2. Read the steps

    Each step tells you what to do and where to look.

    1. Read the junction early
    2. Wait for the approaching car
    3. Recheck, then turn
    4. Settle into the new road
  3. Answer the question

    The blue car is approaching from your right. What should you do here?

    1. Turn because you have signalled
    2. Wait behind the line and reassess the gap
    3. Move out so the other driver makes space
    See the answer and why
    Wait behind the line and reassess the gap.

    The main-road traffic has priority. This gap is occupied; wait and make fresh observations before emerging.

How we check our content
What is Layna?

Layna helps learner drivers in England, Scotland and Wales prepare for their driving test between lessons. Practical lessons pair a 3D demonstration with clear steps and a short quiz. A separate theory course has topic lessons, practice questions and timed mocks.

What is free, and what does Plus add?

Car controls, junctions and reverse-bay parking are free, including their demonstrations, quizzes and explanations. Plus adds the rest of the 27-topic practical course, every theory topic and unlimited mocks. Plus is opening soon at launch prices of £4.99 a month, renewing until you cancel, or £19.99 for 12 months with no automatic renewal. A free account saves your progress; it does not unlock Plus.

Is Layna for UK driving tests?

Layna covers the car test in England, Scotland and Wales, using British driving terms and the Highway Code for Great Britain. Northern Ireland has a separate test system run by the DVA, so this is not a Northern Ireland test course.

Does it replace driving lessons?

No. Use Layna to understand a skill before or after you practise it in a real car with an instructor or an eligible supervising driver. A quiz score shows what you have studied, not whether you can drive on your own.

Can I use it if I learn in an automatic?

Yes. The driving principles are the same. The 3D demonstrations let you switch between manual and automatic controls, including a view of just the steering and pedals.

How exact are the 3D demonstrations?

They show a slowed, typical sequence so you can follow what happens and why. They are not a guide to exact speeds, steering points or pedal pressure, which vary between cars and situations; practise those with your instructor.

Does it cover the theory test?

Yes. The theory course has 22 topic lessons, 704 original practice questions with explanations, road-sign revision and timed 50-question mocks. The questions are written by Layna, not taken from DVSA. The mocks cover the multiple-choice part of the test; hazard perception needs separate practice.

Does it work on my phone?

Yes. Layna runs in the browser on phones, tablets and computers, so there is nothing to install.
