About the Driving Test

Driving Tests are by the Driving Standards Agency (DSA).

The Provisional Licence

You need this before you can apply for a theory test and have to be 17 years of age but you can apply up to three months before you turn 17. Click here for information about how to apply for a provisional driving licence.

The Theory Driving Test

The theory test is made up of two parts; the multiple choice part and the hazard perception part. You need to pass both parts to pass the theory test. Once you have passed the theory test you can then apply to take your practical driving test. Click here for more details on the Theory Driving Test.
