Why do learner drivers endure so much hate? 🤔

Often, during driving lessons, learners experience other drivers who aggressively tailgate, shout and sound their horn.

This just makes a learner’s driving journey less enjoyable and only leads to mistakes, as they become stressed from having to deal with more pressure.

Remember, you were a learner driver once!!

DRIVING TEST CHANGES:

Via Driver & Vehicle Standards Agency

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.

Test Information from Wells Driver Training Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🚘

The Emergency Stop✅

The controlled stop, more commonly referred to as the "emergency stop", is an exercise which determines the ability of the candidate to stop the vehicle promptly yet under control during a simulated emergency. ✅

The simulation is performed by the examiner raising his or her hand and saying, "STOP!". ✅

A controlled stop exercise will be carried out on every extended test and one third of normal tests. ✅

This might be an emergency stop, or the candidate might be asked to make a controlled stop in a specific location.✅

During dangerous weather conditions, such as rain and snow, this test can be left out for safety reasons.🚘

When driving in icy or snowy weather from Wells Driver Training Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 🚘

• drive with care, even if the roads have been treated

• keep well back from the road user in front as stopping distances can be ten times greater than on dry roads

• take care when overtaking vehicles spreading salt or other de-icer, particularly if you are riding a motorcycle or cycle

• watch out for snowploughs which may throw out snow on either side. Do not overtake them unless the lane you intend to use has been cleared

• be prepared for the road conditions to change over relatively short distances

• listen to travel bulletins and take note of variable message signs that may provide information about weather, road and traffic conditions ahead.🚘
