4u2drive driving school - Copyright 2008
Intensive driving courses
throughout the West Midlands.
On the day of your test you will have an hour's lesson beforehand, just to familiarize yourself
with the area around the test centre and to check that all your skills are in order.
Before the test begins the examiner will ask you one of the Show Me/Tell Me question
combinations, but don't worry - this will all be explained well in advance of your test.
The test itself lasts around 40 minutes and you will usually be asked to perform two of
four manoeuvres:
The examiner may also ask you to perform an emergency stop. All of these manoeuvres will
be covered fully in your lessons, and you will be discouraged from taking your test until I
believe that you can perform them to a standard that will enable you to pass the driving test.
During the test the examiner is watching the standard of your driving but also your awareness
of the road ahead and situations occurring around you. You are allowed to make 15 minor
faults, so long as you do not make the same minor fault three times. Your instructor will go
through this more fully with you as you near test standard.
The cost of the driving test is £56.50
