THE PRACTICAL DRIVING TEST

You can't apply to take the Practical Driving Test until you have passed  the Theory & Hazard Perception tests, you then have two years in which to pass the Driving Test.
In order to pass, you must show your examiner that you can drive safely, complete the nominated set exercises and show through your driving that you have a thorough knowledge of the Highway Code.

Your test will last approximately 40 minutes over a route that will include a range of typical road and traffic conditions. This could include town centres, urban roads, rural roads and Dual Carriageways.

At the start of your test you will be asked to sign a declaration that your test vehicle is covered by insurance. Your examiner will also conduct an eyesight test, you must be able to read a car number plate from a distance of 20.5 metres, with or without the aid of glasses or contact lenses. If you need to wear glasses or contact lenses to do this, you must wear them whilst driving. If you fail the eyesight test your driving test will not continue.
A recent addition to the test is the  Show Me Tell Me Questions.

 You will be asked two of the questions at the beginning of the driving test.

During your test you will be asked to carry out two of the following set exercises - Reverse round a corner - Turn in the road - Reverse park - Bay park (The Bay park is not used at all Test Centres. Bailleston is one of the Test Centres where you may be asked to carry out this exercise. You may also be asked to do an emergency stop.

During your test your examiner will assess and record your driving faults. Committing one fault of a Serious or Dangerous nature will result in you failing your test. Committing driving faults of a less serious nature may not lead to failure, provided you do not commit more than 15 faults, however if a particular fault is habitual this would be considered to be a serious weakness in your driving and would be marked as a serious fault thus leading to failure.

At the end of your test your examiner will go through your driving test report with you and offer some guidance and explanation of your faults.
