What Happens If You’re Not Test-Ready?
If your instructor believes you’re not ready for the driving test:
- They may refuse to accompany you to the test.
- They might suggest rescheduling the test to allow more time for practice.
- This decision is based on safety and DVSA’s code of conduct, which requires instructors to ensure learners are fully prepared before taking the test.
How to Prevent Disappointments.
To Track Your Progress
It’s important to monitor your driving progress regularly. Here’s how you can stay on track:
- Check Your Skills: Use the Total Drive App to review your progress in different driving areas.
- Mock Test Feedback: After your mock tests, listen carefully to your instructor’s feedback to understand areas that need improvement.
- Plan Ahead: We recommend being test-ready at least 14 days before your actual test date. This gives you enough time to practice or reschedule if needed.
Why This Matters
Following these guidelines helps:
- Improve your chances of passing on the first attempt.
- Save money and time by avoiding the need for multiple test attempts.
- Build your confidence, knowing you’re fully prepared to handle real-world driving situations.
Summary
To succeed in your driving test:
- Aim to reach the required driving standard by passing a mock test with your instructor.
- Track your progress regularly and book additional lessons if needed.
- Communicate openly with your instructor to stay informed about your readiness.
