Training resources

Our aim is to do everything we can in order to help you get through your test. This page will be updated with any relevant resources which will help you before, during and after your driving test.

Before you start:

If you're just about to turn 17, then your first port of call should be the DVLA website, where you can apply for your provisional licence. You can do this up to two months before your 17th birthday.

About the test:

Before you're able to take your practical driving test, you have to take a theory test, which consists of a multiple choice section (now 50 questions, you must score over 43), and a video based 'hazard perception' test, both of which are taken on a computer. You will be told your result immediately after taking the test.
