INFORMATION

This is the page where you will find the latest information on Driving Tests, Theory Tests and any updates which may come through from the Driving Standards Agency.

   Latest info on Test Fees due to rise on 1st April 2009:-

• Theory Test                    £31
• Practical Test                  £62

My aim is to provide you all with the latest information as soon as I can, so please keep coming back as often as you like. Meanwhile here are some things about driving you may not know:-

1.  The roads where accidents are most likely to occur are not fast dual-carriageways, nor even motorways - they`re the ones around the corner from your home. Most accidents take place within five miles of where the driver lives.

2.   Every year, nearly 1,000 people are killed on the roads by drivers who are going too fast. That`s not necessarily breaking the speed limits - it means going too fast for the prevailing conditions.

3.   If you`re a new driver, it`s not how skilful you are at handling the car that will keep you out of trouble - it`s learning to spot what makes a situation dangerous in the first place.

4.   If  you need to make an emergency stop when you`re travelling at 40 mph, your car will have travelled the length of three cars before your foot has reached the brake pedal. You will take exactly the same time to react whether you`re travelling at 40 mph or 80 mph, no matter how alert you are - if you`re going faster, you`ll travel that much further before you even hit the brake.

5.   If everyone slowed down by just ONE mph, 300 lives per year would be saved.
