Booking a Test
The Theory Test and Hazard Perception Test are combined for booking and administrative purposes and generally referred to as 'The Theory Test', so when you book you will be applying for, and booking both. The Practical Test is a single test and is conducted at a different location from the Theory Test.
When should you book?
Always consult your instructor before booking a test; he will help you prepare for it. If you have a target date for passing the Practical Driving Test please discuss this with your instructor so he can advise if and how this can be met, taking into account current waiting times for both tests. Please note that you cannot book a practical test until you pass the Theory Test.
