What you need to achieve before your driving test

Before taking a practical driving test, learners are expected to show they can drive safely and independently. In simple terms, you should be able to:

Control the vehicle safely and smoothly

Use effective observation, including mirrors and blind spots

Respond correctly to road signs, road markings and hazards

Drive independently and make safe decisions

Deal with junctions, roundabouts and traffic situations safely
