DVSA Making Changes to Test Bookings - Will it reduce the backlog??

DVSA make changes to test bookings to try to boost pass rate
Short term learner insurance:

With the large backlog of driving test at the moment the DVSA are trying to improve the pass rate, they tried to do this last year by sending e-mails saying to only book a test when you are ready.

They are not proposing more changes to try a stop candidates taking a test before they are ready, will it work or will it just cause more stress to learner drivers?

I create videos with tips and tricks to help you along side your driving lessons when learning to drive and ultimately to pass your UK driving test!

Even if you have passed your driving test you never stop learning, see what you can learn from my videos.

Works and is sensible on paper. However, encouraging a pupil to wait is a challenge indeed. I do believe that something more substantial has to be enforced.

I wouldn’t cancel a test but just reschedule the date. I had a test booked for Feb 2021 and kept moving it to ensure I could connect to the website, ended up taking the test on Oct 2021. I had to do that to fit with my medical condition.

my theory test is in 12 days, I'm prepared and my friends are gonna quiz me tonight :)
people should absolutely be ready when the date comes, sure some will still fail but that's life.

Are these changes definitely happening? If so when?

The dvsa also needs to fix the backlog on issuing/renewing licenses. I applied in 7th aug and it didnt arrive unti; 29th sep.

I also keep failing my theory test (not real). I have 1 booked for 17th feb and i could never exceed 46 marks, tho i passed just 3 times after taking 11 tests. Idk some info about vehicle documents, braking distances and questions that say 'how far can u reverse?'

Idk what wrong with waving pedestrians to cross at a pedestrian/zebra crossing when im stopped since thats what i picked

I want to change the test to new available date but it says limit reached
