Independent Driving On The Test | Learn to drive: Driving Test Tips

During the Driving Test, the examiner will ask us to drive independently for around 20 minutes. We will need to follow directions from a sat-nav, or follow traffic signs towards a destination. This part of the test isn’t there to test our navigation skills, instead we need to demonstrate that we can stay calm whilst driving on our own - just as we will need to after passing the test. This video will tell you everything you need to know for the independent driving part of the test, and also a few tips to help when things go wrong!

I passed the driving test today. I only had 10 hours of lesson with professional inductor. Then, I put insurance on my dad car and drove around for 1 month with him. I gained a much confident over in one month. I booked the test and I have passed it. I have passed both my theory and driving test in first attempt. I never had mock test and I have used my dad car for the test. Which is VW touran (Big 7 seater). By the way, I only made two minor fault. Thank you very much because I watch your mock tests and learned lots from learners mistakes. Also thank you for your best tips.

I passed almost a year ago now, and still value this channels information as it helped me greatly in understanding details that lead to my pass. Thank you for the uploads.

I passed last October. But with an examiner sitting next too you its not so bad when you become independent and have passed its scary. I have had a test with no sat nav and no directions to follow. They would not make you do the whole test again. In fact I am pretty sure they must look at previous tests if you have done previous tests. As you said if your not sure ask or continue safely you can still pass so long as your safe.

I have heard about someone always taking a wrong turn on a roundabout because they were scared of taking the wrong turn.
