What a nice little birthday gift from Orla to me. Passing her test with just 4 minor faults on my birthday!! I was in the back of the car to witness a really great drive and achieving a great result that you richly deserve. I loved the hard work and dedication you put in Orla. Stay safe and you know where I am should you need anything.🚗🚗

Lights are not only for you to see but also for you to be seen!

Daytime running lights are exactly that – to make yourself visible on the road during the daytime. 🚗

They’re too bright for night driving and don’t light the back of your car.

So SWITCH YOUR HEADLIGHTS ON when it’s getting dark, unless yours are automated.

Check your car’s manual to see if they are.

And read Rule 113 of the Highway Code in case you’ve forgotten how they work 📖

Big smiles for Tori and under added pressure too! Both her brothers passed first time with me and Tori didn’t want to let the side down. She certainly didn’t and smashed her test with just two minor faults. Super proud of you Tori. I will now confirm, you are funnier than both of your brothers and certainly funnier than your Dad🤣🤣 Keep up the great standard of driving that you have continually shown🚗🚗

DVSA driving test changes coming soon….

We’re putting learners in control of their car driving test bookings 🚘

If you’ve got a booking or you’ll be looking for a test soon, make a note of these dates 📅

31 March 2026 – only 2 changes can be made to a booking

12 May 2026 – only learners are allowed to book a test and make changes

9 June 2026 – learners can move their booked test only to nearby centres

By changing who can book car and change driving tests, we’re aiming to reduce the re-selling of driving tests, giving the power back to learners 💪

Make sure the driving instructor you choose is right for you and is actually registered to teach you.

Do you know what to look for when choosing a driving instructor?

🚗 Approved driving instructors (ADIs) and trainee driving instructors must display a certificate in the windscreen of their vehicle when they are providing paid instruction.

They display:
🟢 a green certificate if they’re a fully qualified driving instructor
🩷 a pink certificate if they’re a trainee and are going through the qualification process

The second first time pass of 2026 goes to Sam. A great drive and Sam managed to control his nerves really well and passed first time with just 4 minor faults. You worked really hard Sam and I am so proud of what you have achieved today. A fantastic effort 😀🚗

This young lady holds the record for the amount of times someone has unnecessarily said “sorry” during the course of her lessons! There was no sorry today though 😀. Isla smashed her driving test with a first time pass and 5 minor faults. I will genuinely miss our conversations and your warm personality. Stay safe on the road and I am looking forward to a wave

Clear up some myths about a driving test…..

🚦 Driving test truth:
Examiners aren’t looking for perfection… they’re looking for safe decisions.

A stall won’t fail you.
A small mistake won’t fail you.
Panic might — so stay calm and keep driving safely.

Confidence isn’t luck. It’s preparation.
And you’re more ready than you think 🚗✨
