We’re putting learners in control of their car driving test bookings 🚘

If you’ve got a booking or you’ll be looking for a test soon, make a note of these dates 📅

31 March 2026 – only 2 changes can be made to a booking

12 May 2026 – only learners are allowed to book a test and make changes

9 June 2026 – learners can move their booked test only to nearby centres

By changing who can book car and change driving tests, we’re aiming to reduce the re-selling of driving tests, giving the power back to learners 💪

Huge congratulations to Charlie who has quite deservedly passed his driving test. Charlie learned the basics with another instructor before coming to us to help get him through the test which he did with flying colours. All in time for a fantastic Christmas and New Year. Well done and have a fantastic driving future. It's been an absolute pleasure to help you get past that winning line.

We’re making some subtle but meaningful changes to the practical driving test. 🚗

You may have seen that we have been trialling changes to the driving test at 20 driving test centres.

As part of the trial, learners drove on routes containing more high-speed, rural roads during their driving test, where location allowed. Now, we are rolling out the changes to all driving test centres in Great Britain from 24 November 2025.

As well as increasing the amount of time spent on higher-speed roads, we are:

✅ reducing the number of stops during the test from 4 to 3
✅ lowering the frequency of emergency stop exercises from 1 in 3 tests to 1 in 7
✅ adding flexibility to the independent driving segment, allowing it to run for the full duration of the test

These changes are designed to help improve road safety by better replicating the conditions motorists face in the real world. They won’t affect the skills needed to take a driving test.

Massive congratulations to a very happy Jordan who has deservedly passed his driving test. Jordan overcame every hurdle that came his way including a house move to 40 miles away but we still managed to sort lessons and all the hard work paid off. Brilliant!
Congratulations and have a fantastic driving future. It's been an absolute pleasure to help you achieve your goal. 😃

Practice, practice and more practice!

New figures reveal the lengths some learner drivers are having to go to pass their theory and practical tests.
