Well done Chirel! It’s been a journey. I’m so happy for you. And I’m genuinely happy that you never have to pay me money ever again. 😂 It’s been a pleasure working with you. Hope your Mum lets you drive her car 👀

🚙 Thinking about swapping your driving test? Read this first 👀

The DVSA allows learners to swap driving test appointments with another learner — but there are important rules you need to follow.

✅ Both learners must already have tests booked
✅ The swap must be for the same type of test
✅ You must request the swap at least 10 working days before the test date
✅ Instructors cannot do the swap for you — it must be done directly through the DVSA, by both learners

This new system has been introduced to help reduce bots and people buying up tests to resell at higher prices, making things fairer for genuine learners.

Have a read through the guide below before arranging any swaps, and always check with your instructor first to make sure the new date works for your lessons 🚙

📌 Save this post for later or share it with someone currently learning to drive!

🚨 Important Update Regarding Driving Test Bookings 🚨

As of tomorrow, the DVSA will be introducing new rules meaning that driving tests can only be booked directly by the learner using their own details and DVSA account.

These changes are being brought in to help tackle bots and companies and some instructors buying up driving tests and reselling them at inflated prices, making the system fairer for genuine learners.

Because of this update, Jax Driving School can no longer book any driving tests and driving test fees will no longer be included within our intensive course packages. Our course prices have been adjusted to reflect the removal of the driving test fee from the overall package cost.

There are other changes too, click the link to take a look at what other changes are happening and when.

We are still here to support all our learners and can guide you through the booking process if needed 😊

If you have any questions about intensive courses or booking your test, feel free to send us a message 📩

The rules for booking and managing car driving tests will change from spring 2026. Find out what the changes are and how they affect you.
