How to Book Your Practical Driving Test
There are three ways to book the practical driving test. You can book your test online at the DSA website, by telephone and by post. It is possible to book the test on behalf of other people and sometimes you’re driving instructor/school can offer this service with an associated admin fee.
To book the practical element of your driving test you will need to have a valid UK driving license number and a theory test pass certificate number. To confirm your booking you will need to pay by credit or debit card.
There are online driving courses and guides that will: help you learn how to drive, provide you with all the secrets and tips you need for passing your written test, take you step by step through the road test so that you’ll know what to expect, and will give you insight and advice on how to stay calm during the exam so that you can pass.
There are two parts to the theory test: the multiple-choice test and the hazard perception test. Both are required to be taken and passed in the same session in order to attain a theory test certificate, which can then be used to book the practical driving test within two years of the theory pass.
You don’t need to have had any previous driver training to take an intensive driving crash course, in fact you don’t need to have passed your theory test to commence learning to drive, however a little experience and knowledge goes a long way. It really is a big ask to come from having no experience of driving to pass your driving test in a 5 day intensive driving course.
The courses can operate in different ways but usually the first day of a week’s intensive driving course is spent studying theory and the second day of the course is taking the theory test, if successful the driving school can then book a practical driving test with the DSA.
This is sometimes an issue with this type of driving course; the driving test is booked where there is a driving test available. This means that, although you will be taking your driving lessons in one area – e.g. Blackpoll, you may be taking your test in a completely different area – e.g. Northwick. The disadvantage here is that you will not be able to gain any local knowledge of an area and identify ‘hot-spots’ where it is easy to be caught out on the driving test.
The next option is to go for a local successful driving school and have the intensive driving lessons and test in your own area (providing the DSA haven’t shut down your driving test centre yet!). The way I conduct intensive courses (and I have had many successes this way) is to meet the learner driver after they have passed their driving theory test, we then go online to the Driving Standards Agency website and book a driving test for the near future. The intensive driving course is booked backwards from the date of the test, so for example:
1. The driving test is booked for Friday.
2. The last driving lesson is booked to start on the morning of Fri and finish with the test
3. Day four of the intensive driving lesson is booked for Thurs
4. Day three of the intensive driving lesson is booked for Weds
5. Etc, etc
It may sound too good to be true, but it’s really not! The internet has provided a way for people, like you, to learn everything there is to know about driving!
