The Practical Test.

The Practical test can only be taken once you have passed your Theory test. You will need your Theory certificate number and the date you passed your theory test to book the practical test.

The Practical test takes about 40 minutes including paperwork at the begining and at the end. During the test the examiner will want you to drive confidently and considerately through a variety of different traffic situations. Remember, he/she expects to see you drive like a qualified driver NOT a learner!

At the end of the test the examiner will tell you if you have passed or failed and give you a debrief of how the test went.
