Driving Tests in Farnborough.

The driving test is straightforward. It is designed to see if you can drive safely, know the Highway Code and can demonstrate this through your driving. Test routes are designed to be as uniform as possible and include a range of typical road and traffic conditions. You will be given directions in good time and asked to carry out set exercises. The driving test lasts approximately 38 / 40 minutes.

You will be asked to carry out a reversing manoeuvres, they may be one of the following:

  • A Turn in the Road
  • A Reverse Round the Corner into a Side Road
  • A Reverse Parallel Park, Next to a Vehicle
  • A Reverse Park into a Parking BayYou may also be asked to carry out an Emergency Stop, plus you will be asked to drive independently for about 10 minutes. The test routes include areas such as Aldershot, Mytchett, Fleet, Cove.

Show Me Tell Me

Candidate will have to either SHOW or EXPLAIN how to do simple maintenance tasks.

At the start of the practical test the Examiner will ask the pupil a ‘Tell Me’ question, for example “Tell me how youwould change a tyre”. This would be followed by a ‘Show Me’ question, for example “Show me where to check the oil level”. A candidate will not FAIL a Driving Test for a wrong answer however they will get ONE Driving Faultif they are wrong. This test will be included inside the existing time limit for the practical test which means less time spend out on the road.

Example one

  • Open the bonnet, identify where you would check the engine oil level and tell me how you would check that the engine has sufficient oil.

Identify dipstick / oil level indicator, describe check of oil level against the minimum/maximum markers.

  • Show me/explain how you would check that the power assisted steering is working before starting a journey.

If the steering becomes heavy the system may not be working properly. Before starting a journey two simple checks can be made. Gentle pressure on the steering wheel, maintained while the engine is started, should result in a slight but noticeable movement as the system begins to operate.

Alternatively turning the steering wheel just after moving off will give an immediate indication that the power assistance is functioning.
