Theory Test
The UK theory test is a mandatory assessment for learner drivers, designed to evaluate their knowledge of road rules, traffic signs, and safe driving practices. It consists of two parts: a multiple-choice section and a hazard perception test. Both must be passed to proceed to the practical driving test.
Practical Driving Lesson Videos
Practical driving lesson videos are designed to visually guide you through key driving skills, helping you prepare for real-world driving scenarios. Covering everything from basic controls to complex junctions and parking techniques, these videos complement your in-car lessons by reinforcing what you learn with clear, step-by-step demonstrations. Whether you’re just starting out or nearing your test, these resources provide valuable insights to boost your confidence and understanding behind the wheel.
Driving Test Manoeuvres
These videos provide step-by-step guidance on all the manoeuvres you’ll be expected to perform during your driving test. From parallel parking and bay parking to pulling up on the right and performing a turn in the road, each video breaks down the techniques in a clear and easy-to-follow format. Designed to support your practical lessons, these videos help you build confidence, understand what examiners are looking for, and practise each manoeuvre with accuracy and control.
Show me Tell me – Vehicle Safety Questions
As part of the UK driving test, you’ll be asked two vehicle safety questions—commonly known as the ‘Show Me, Tell Me’ questions. One will be asked at the start of your test (Tell Me), where you’ll explain how you’d carry out a safety task, and the other while you’re driving (Show Me), where you’ll demonstrate a control such as operating the windscreen wipers or demister. These questions assess your understanding of basic car maintenance and safety checks, ensuring you can operate essential controls safely and responsibly while driving.
Practical Driving Test
The UK driving test is a practical assessment designed to ensure that learners have the skills, knowledge, and confidence to drive safely and independently. It includes a vision check, a ‘Show Me, Tell Me’ vehicle safety question section, around 40 minutes of driving on various road types, and one reversing manoeuvre. You may also be asked to perform an emergency stop. During the test, you’ll follow directions from a driving examiner and complete 20 minutes of independent driving, often using a sat nav. To pass, you must demonstrate safe, controlled driving with no more than 15 minor faults and no serious or dangerous faults.
