YOUR DRIVING TEST
What happens when you arrive at the test centre?
When you arrive at the test centre you will be taken to the waiting room until called by your examiner, who will introduce themselves to you and get you to sign a declaration. Once you have signed the declaration the examiner will ask you if you want me to accompany you on the test, if you do I will sit behind you but will not be able to speak or help you in anyway. You will then be taken outside and asked to read a number plate. The distance requirement for the eyesight test is: 20 metres for vehicles displaying the new-style number plate 20.5 metres for vehicles displaying old-style number plates. If you can't read the first number plate correctly, you'll be asked to read a second number plate. You will then be asked to go to your car and you will be asked two show me tell me questions or safety questions. Failure to answer either question correctly will result in a driver fault. The examiner will then explain a little bit about the test and what is expected of you. If at any time you have not heard or misunderstood the examiner's questions ask them to repeat the directions. The driving test will last between 38 and 40 minutes and will include a wide variety of roads including dual carriageways, roundabouts, bus lanes and one way streets. There will be 10 minutes of independent driving and you will be expected to carry out 1 manouevre and possibly the emergency stop. Drive ahead at all times unless the road signs and markings direct you otherwise. Your examiner will tell you in good time when they want you to turn left or right.
After the test is finished the examiner will complete some paperwork and then tell you whether you have passed or failed. If you have passed the examiner will give you a certificate will which states you have passed the driving test.
