Please DO NOT book your driving test before speaking to your driving instructor!!
Logging on the DVSA website at 545am on a Monday is the best way to secure a test, but try to log in other times during the week/day between 6am and 11pm, you might be lucky.
You have 10 working days to cancel it/change it (call that 2 weeks before) before you lose your fee.
You have only 2 swaps now. Previously we had upto 6!
You can only move your test to 3 other test locations:
Bedford - Can swap to Bletchley, Luton, Letchworth.
Bletchley - Can swap to Aylesbury, Leighton Buzzard, Luton.
You CANNOT move a Bletchley test to Bedford (which I think is utterly bonkers when you can move Bedford to Bletchley).
If you book your driving test in any other location, you run the risk of not being able to move it to another test centre.
I cover Bletchley and Bedford test centres ONLY, as there is no way we can get to other test areas enough to practise those areas and carry out my normal work timetable.
If you have booked Kettering Northampton, Letchworth, Aylesbury, Wellingborough or Luton, Stevenage, St Albans or Northampton, please CANCEL it and rebook.
You will NOT be able to move you test location and date with just 2 swaps available.
Just some helpful advice so you don't waste time trying to find a driving test.
