If you do not have a photocard driving licence, bring your paper licence and a valid passport.
Your test will be cancelled, and you’ll lose your fee if you do not bring these.
How the test works:
Your test will last up to 30 minutes, and includes:
- an ‘S’ shaped reverse into a bay
- Showing the uncoupling and recoupling procedure
You can carry on if you make a mistake during your test.
Test result:
If you pass the test, you’ll get a test certificate. You’ll need to take the certificate to your Driver CPC part 3b (on-road driving) test.
You need to pass the Driver CPC part 3b test within 6 months of getting your certificate. If you do not, you’ll need to pass part 3a again.
