Your Driving Test

Your practical driving test consists of two parts the Show me/Tell me section and the Practical Driving aspect of the driving test.

Show me/Tell me:
You will be asked two questions on basic car maintenance in which you will have to either show the examiner what they ask of you or answer the question the examiner gives to you. You won’t fail your test if you answer these incorrectly but you will be given a minor fault against you.

For this aspect of the test a question and answer sheet will be provided to you so it may help you in understanding the basic necessities of car safety and what is requires of you on the practical test.
We will cover them on lessons to help you understand everything.

 

Practical Driving:
Your driving test will be carried out at a local driving test centre, by a DSA (Driving Standards Agency) examiner.
Tests usually last around forty minutes, in which you will be asked to perform two maneuvers out of a selection of three or four (depending on the test centre); reverse around a corner, parallel parking, bay parking or turn in the road. Bay parking can be an option of maneuver depending on the driving test centre. You may also be asked to perform an emergency stop, which will be at the examiners discretion.

DSA Test Centeres used by 1st London Driving Academy are; Belvedere, Erith MPTC, Sidcup.

    Safe driving for life?
    I do not believe that learning to drive is done after passing your test.
    We train you to become SAFE drivers before you go for your test, and we hope that your driving and attitude towards driving will be maintained to the same high standards that you were taught.

    After all, when you were learning you saw what people do. So let us follow only the good examples of attitude, courtesy, consideration and above all anticipation of other road users. Lets gain experience in safe driving for life. If that was still not too convincing, the link to this site will show you people that learned by costly errors. I hope it will give everyone the perspective of not trying to become one of those statistics.
