The Practical Test

Once you've passed your theory test, the final step to obtaining your full driving licence is the practical test.

Once your driving skills have reached a suitable level, and providing you have passed your theory test in the last 2 years, you can then look to get your practical test booked. How far in advance this needs to be done will vary depending on the number of others applying at the same time but this will be discussed with you when appropriate.

'Independent driving' is a section of the test where you will be asked to follow signs or maps to a particular location to see how well you deal with driving without direction from the examiner.

Book your practical test . Please note you should always check with your instructor before doing this yourself.
