What happens during the test in Windsor, Berkshire

There are 5 parts to the driving test:

• an eyesight check
• ‘show me, tell me’ vehicle safety questions
• general driving ability
• reversing your vehicle
• independent driving
• How long the test lasts
• Your general driving ability
• The examiner will give you directions that you should follow. Driving test routes are not published, so you cannot check them before your test.
• You’ll be asked to pull over and pull away during your test, including:
• Pulling over at the side of the road
• You’ll drive in various road and traffic conditions, but not on motorways.
• You’ll drive for around 40 minutes.
• The test is the same for both manual and automatic cars.

• normal stops at the side of the road
• pulling out from behind a parked vehicle
• a hill start
• Reversing your vehicle
• The examiner will ask you to do one of the following exercises:

• parallel park at the side of the road
• park in a parking bay – either by driving in and reversing out, or reversing in and driving out (the examiner will tell you which you have to do)
• pull up on the right-hand side of the road, reverse for around 2 car lengths, and rejoin the traffic
• You’ll have to drive for about 20 minutes by following either:
• Independent driving

• directions from a sat nav
• traffic signs
• They’ll set the sat nav up for you. You cannot use your own sat nav.
• If you cannot see a traffic sign (for example, because it’s covered by trees), the examiner will give you directions until you can see the next one.
• The examiner will not give you a fault for taking a wrong turning.
• They’ll help you get back on the route if you do.
• Going off the route
• If you cannot see traffic signs

If you make mistakes during your test

You can carry on if you make a mistake. It might not affect your test result if it’s not serious.

The examiner will only stop your test if they think your driving is a danger to other road users.
