Update📣

We have lifted COVID-19 driving and theory test restrictions in England in line with government restrictions ending in this country.

This means:

😷 face coverings are a personal choice for theory and practical test candidates – candidates no longer need to tell us if they can’t wear a face covering before their test
🚗 driving tests are no longer ending early unless the candidate’s driving is so poor it is a risk to their safety and that of other road users
🧑‍🤝‍🧑 driving instructors and accompanying drivers can sit in on driving tests
🏠 you no longer have to self isolate if you have COVID-19, but we encourage you to rearrange your test if you feel unwell for any reason.

Trial to increase the number of driving tests starts at 30 test centres
30 driving test centres across England, Wales and Scotland will be trialling a new testing programme to increase the number of tests driving examiners carry out per day from Tuesday 27 July.

The trial will run up to and including Friday 30 July at these driving test centres:

Barking
Birmingham Kingstanding
Bolton
Boston (Redstone Industrial Estate)
Bristol Avonmouth
Burgess Hill MPTC
Burton on Trent
Cambridge (Brookmount Court)
Chadderton
Dorchester
Dunfermline
Durham
Enfield MPTC (Innova Business Park)
Glasgow Baillieston
Goodmayes
Greenford
Hither Green
Horsforth
Kirkcaldy
Knaresborough
Luton
Mill Hill
Newport Gwent (Stephenson St)
Reading
Sale
Sheffield (Middlewood Road)
St Helens
Stoke on Trent (Newcastle-under-Lyme)
Tilbury
Warwick
If the trial is successful, the new programme could increase capacity across the national network and help reduce waiting times.

DVSA is committed to reducing driving test waiting times as quickly and safely as possible.

Change to testing programme for trials
The test centres taking part in the trial will have some of their test start times changed to allow for the new testing programme.

We will not cancel any tests to accommodate the trial, but the original scheduled start time of tests at the centres taking part in the trial may be brought forward. This could be by a maximum of 30 minutes.

We will email affected candidates to let them know as soon as possible. If a test you have booked on behalf of your pupil is affected, you need to let them know of the change to the time of their appointment.

If you or your pupil are not able to make the new test start time, whoever made the test booking must contact the DVSA Customer Service Centre on 0300 200 1122 as soon as possible. They will need the driving licence number and test reference number when they call.

Keeping you, your pupils and our driving examiners safe is our top priority. The trial is being carried out in line with our additional COVID-19 safety measures.

Keeping you updated
We will update you on the outcome of the trial and the next steps when we can.
