Since the PM\u2019s announcement of his hopeful roadmap out of the pandemic, there have been rumors circulating about when driving lessons and tests will be given the green light to restart and, AT LAST, dates have been confirmed! <\/p>\r\n\r\n
Tests for both theory and practical are to resume no earlier than 12th April 2021. Get in! Yes, literally, get in your car and let\u2019s go! <\/p>\r\n\r\n
The DVSA (aka, the gods of driving) have announced rules, dates and advice for upcoming plans. <\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n So, we thought, in the spirit of being helpful and full of spring joy, we would make it a little easier on you to come to one place for all the tips and prep (although, probably a good idea to check the Gov website too<\/strong><\/a>). <\/p>\r\n\r\n Important Dates for your calendar:<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n (All subject to social distancing and government changes)<\/em><\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n Now, buckle up, get excited and prepare your own roadmap for driving success.<\/strong> <\/p>\r\n\r\n When you arrive for your theory test you will have to do a few things a little differently, bet that comes as no surprise, but luckily it won\u2019t be too drastic. <\/p>\r\n\r\n With that in mind, the following info might be helpful to note:<\/p>\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n <\/p>\r\n <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n Ok, so that\u2019s the theory test sorted, but what about the practical? Well, these will be slightly different and all subject to government guidelines, but at a glance, this is what you can expect.<\/p>\r\n\r\n Practical Test rules<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n On top of all this information, you also need to ensure that your car is test ready and road worthy. This is very important, COVID or not, because if it is not, then no test will be happening. Again, if you are taking the test in your instructor\u2019s car, they will make sure this is done. <\/p>\r\n\r\n All this research can make the actual process of passing your test a hassle before it\u2019s even started and it\u2019s not even April yet! <\/p>\r\n\r\n When you\u2019ve passed your test, we\u2019ll still be here for you with more advice and excellent insurance cover options<\/strong><\/a>, that will help you enjoy your newfound freedom, but without the financial worry. <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n For obvious reasons, you should NOT attend your test if you have any COVID symptoms, have been told by the NHS track and trace app to self-isolate or you have recently entered the UK. <\/p>\r\n\r\n Of course, it is always advised to do as much prep and fact finding as possible and the most up-to-date source is normally the Gov website. <\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nSo, be sure to check the following links out for Government advice on theory<\/strong><\/a> and practical tests.<\/strong><\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Since the PM\u2019s announcement of his hopeful roadmap out of the pandemic, there have been rumors circulating about when driving lessons and tests will be given the green light to restart and, AT LAST, dates have been confirmed!
