👨‍💼WE ASKED THE EXAMINERS…🧑‍💼

⏰ HOW LONG IS THE DRIVING TEST? ⏰
“You’ll spend around 40 minutes behind the wheel driving on a variety of roads and traffic conditions .”

🤷 WHAT HAPPENS BEFORE I DRIVE? 🤷
“You will sign a declaration to say the car is insured for you and I’ll ask you to read a number plate from 20 metres away, so don’t forget your glasses or contacts if you need them to see clearly”

➡️ THEN WHAT? ➡️
“Next comes the ‘tell me’ questions, something like ‘Tell me, how you’d check your direction indicators are working?’”

🚗WHAT HAPPENS ONCE WE START DRIVING?🚗
“For approximately 20 minutes out of the 40 minutes, you’ll be driving independently.
This means you will either be following my satnav or the road signs to a destination. Taking a wrong turn is no big deal, as long as you do it safely, you are not being tested on your navigation , I just want to ensure you can drive safely.”

✋ WILL I BE ASKED A ‘SHOW ME’ QUESTION? ✋
“Yes, here I want to ensure you can use buttons and settings in the car while keeping the car safe. Here I’d like to ensure you can maintain the speed of the car, keep the steering under control and glance at the control panel if necessary.”

🚘 WHAT MANOEUVRES WILL BE PART OF THE TEST? 🚘
“As well as performing a hill start, pulling out from behind a parked car and making a normal stop at the side of the road, you may need to carry out an emergency stop.
You’ll also need to carry out one of the reversing manoeuvres.”

✅ HOW GOOD DO I NEED TO BE TO PASS ✅
“You need to prove that you are safe and competent. I’m not expecting perfection! As long as you don’t make anymore than 15 driving faults (minors) and no serious or dangerous faults (majors) you’ll be okay!”

😭 WHAT HAPPENS IF THE EXAMINER DOESN’T LIKE ME? 😭
“We are all trained professionals, we are here to judge your ability to drive safely, that’s all.”

🤞 AFTER THE TEST?🤞
“Whether you pass or fail, we will talk you through any faults you have made. If you’re unsuccessful, work on your faults and come back stronger. If you’ve been successful, you can get straight on the road as soon as your insurance has been sorted!”
