Applying for your Practical Driving Test
Once we have agreed that you are ready for your Test - what do you do now? You need to apply to take your test with your local DSA centre. You can do this online from the DSA website, but we strongly recommend you don't apply for your test until we agree that you're ready.
The Practical Driving Test
When you get notification of your test date - BOOK OUT OUR CAR! In the run-up to your test we will drive the ACTUAL TEST ROUTES that the examiners use as I have copies of everyone that is used for all the local test centres.
Before you do any driving you'll be asked to perform an eyesight check and then be asked some vehicle safety questions.
You'll then be tested on your general driving ability, including two reversing exercises.
The actual 'driving' part of your test will last about 40 minutes. Throughout the test your examiner will be looking for evidence you've reached an overall safe standard of driving, as you carry out both general and specific manoeuvres. You can make up to 15 minor driving faults and still pass the test, but 16 or more minor faults results in a fail. However, if you commit just one serious or dangerous fault, you'll fail the test automatically.
You must bring the following items with you to the test (if you don't, the Driving Standards Agency (DSA) may refuse to carry out the test and you may lose your fee):
An appropriately insured and licensed vehicle, displaying L- Plates, that's suitable for the test - The Valle Driving School Car is perfect for this - don't forget to book it out early!
The appropriate theory test pass certificate.
Your appointment letter confirming your test time and date.
Both parts of your photo card licence. If you don't take both parts of your licence, your test will not take place and you'll lose your fee.
If you have an old-style paper licence, you must take your signed driving licence and separate approved photo identification with you.
