Practical Driving Test

The day of your practical driving test will be one of the most exciting days of your life. It's the day all the hard work and preparation pays off. Yes, there will be some nerves on the day, but students usually find that they are well prepared for the test, during driving lessons, I give students regular feedback on their progress, so they know when they are ready to take the practical driving test. Their nerves do not have that much of an impact on the day.

When you can regularly drive during your driving lesson without making more than a couple of errors, there is no reason why you can't replicate this on your practical driving test.

When you are nearly ready for your practical driving test, I will offer you the opportunity to do a couple of mock tests with me playing the examiners role. Doing this will give you a guide to how you are likely to perform on your practical driving test.

If you find you are still uncomfortable or are making numerous errors during your driving lessons and mock tests, this is a sign that you are not yet ready to take the practical driving test. Far too many learner drivers arrive at the driving test centre underprepared, and that is the main reason why the average 1st-time pass rate in our local test centre is less than 50%.
