Driving Theory Test Examination Process For Learner Drivers
For this, you can go to DVLA office or local post office to get the appropriate
form and fill it and attach a passport size photo and 50.00 fee for the licence.
DVLA aims to deliver your driving license to you within three weeks of receiving
your application form. It might take longer if we have to check on your health or
personal details. You will need to wait for your new license to arrive before
driving. Please allow at least three weeks for your license to arrive before
contacting DVLA.
When you will receive your provisional licence, you can drive your car with L
plates with a driver who has held a full driving license for 3 years or more and
his age is 21 years or more.
Once you have a valid provisional driving licence you can book driving test.
Waiting times vary from region to region, but the target is that 95 per cent of
theory test candidates receive an appointment date within two weeks of their
preferred date.
Theory test appointments can be booked, and subject to three clear working days
notice, be changed and cancelled using driving test booking online service or the
telephone. You can also download an application form and apply by post.
You will need to book theory test and driving practical test (car practical test,
motorcycle practical test) separately through the Driving Standards Agency (DSA).

After Theory test booking you will appear for your theory test. The theory test is

The theory test is a computer-based test at various tests centers around the
country. For car and motorbike theory test you'll be asked randomly selected 45
multiple-choice questions and 5 marks case study style questions in 57 minutes and
you need to get at least 43 right to pass. For Lorries and buses you'll be asked
60 questions in 70 minutes and the pass mark is 51 out of 60. You have 57 minutes
to complete the test. There is a 15-minute practice session you can work through
before starting the tests.
Hazard perception test:
This part of the theory test requires you to view 14 hazard video clips on the
computer screen of approximately one minute each. You are required to watch these
clips as if you were the driver. There will be 15 hazards to find - at least one
on each clip. However, one clip will have 2 hazards. The hazard perception test
clips will not contain any sound.
Candidates can score up to five marks on each hazard and the test contains 15
scoreable hazards.
You click either the left or right mouse button whenever you think you can see a
hazard developing. The speed at which you click the mouse button as a hazard
develops will determine your score for that particular hazard perception clips.
You can score between 0 and 5 on each hazard.
The pass mark for this part of the test is 44 out of 75 (i.e. 15 hazards x 5) for
car drivers and motorcycle riders.
Those taking LGV or PCV (lorry or bus) tests must score at least 50 out of 75.
If you pass one part and fail the other, you'll fail the whole test, and you'll
need to take both parts again. Once you have passed the theory test you can then
apply to take your driving practical test (car practical test or motorcycle
practical test).
