Confessions of a Driving Instructor is a British sex comedy from 1976 directed by Norman Cohen. The movie follows the story of Timmy Lea (Robin Askwith), a young and inexperienced driving instructor who is trying to pass the final exam to become a full-time instructor. Timmy is oblivious to the fact that his attractive female students are interested in more than just learning how to drive, with all sorts of sexual hijinks taking place in the car.

The movie is set at the fictional Fenella Driving School, where Timmy joins as an apprentice instructor under the supervision of Sid Noggett (Anthony Booth). Sid is a seasoned instructor who knows all the tricks to manipulate the students into taking more driving lessons. Timmy is introduced to a variety of female students including Jenny (Sheila White), who is a nymphomaniac, Sally (Diane Keen), who is attracted to Sid, and Rosie (Debbie Linden), who initially flirts with Timmy but later becomes one of his students.

The plot of the movie revolves around Timmy's struggle to become a full-time instructor while also trying to navigate his way through the various sexual escapades that take place in the car. The different female students give him a hard time, trying to seduce him. Meanwhile, Sid is also trying to get a piece of the action by flirting with Sally, who is already married.

As the story develops, Timmy starts to realize the real intentions of the female students and becomes embroiled in their different sexual desires. He struggles to keep his cool in front of the female students but eventually succumbs to their demands. Along the way, he also gets some valuable advice from Sid, who is an expert in manipulating the female students.
