Practical driving test

Hiya.

So I failed my practical driving test yesterday and I cannot retake another one until May. I know the wait times are atrocious, and chances are I’ll be booking a test for October.

I’ve heard of some websites that book fast track tests, although im not to sure how reliable they are. I’ve heard that “pass me fast” keep rescheduling tests. I also know “national intensive” book practical tests.

I ideally would like to get my licence before June as I will be starting a course that will be it very difficult for me to take my practical test. It’ll mean that I can only do it on a Saturday.

How reliable are services like national intensive?

Have you looked at their reviews? The safest way will always be directly with the DVSA.

Some of these are scams. Even the ones that are 'kosher' still often change test bookings without alerting you. Avoid them, it's not worth it.
