About the Driving Theory Test .

A driving theory test forms part of the requirements for a full UK driving licence. It is designed to prove that you understand the laws of the road and must be passed before you can move on to your practical element.

We have structured our revision documentation to the same format as the test so that you are familiar on the day. You will take a multiple-choice quiz and a hazard simulation test all of which will be done on computer.

Taking the Test

It is really important that you arrive 15 minutes early on the day of your test, as they have very strict timings and being late will find you disqualified and automatically failed. This is not anything we can appeal as it is made very clear to candidates in advance.

On arrival you will be given a locker and asked to leave all of your personal belongings behind. Do not try and take mobile phones or electronic devices into the test room with you. This will result in disqualification on the grounds of cheating and again an automatic fail.

After the Test

Because the test is conducted on computer the results are available as soon as you have finished, and you will be given a sheet of paper which highlights your performance on each area of the test which will be useful if you do happen to fail and need to resit.
