Learners faced nearly four-month wait for driving test in Preston
Across Britain, 123 driving test centres had waits of at least six months as of March – 38% of the country's 324 testing sites.The DVSA said that it had since cut down waiting times, with 23% of test centres now having a wait of 24 weeks, and a further 23% within the target of six weeks as of November – although it could not provide figures on which centres had improved.
However, she added that more than half of learners are still failing their tests and urged them to check the"Ready to Pass" checklist available on the DVSA website.Separate analysis by the RAC shows that more than 50,000 tests in the 12 months to March were taken by people who had already failed their test five times or more.
It said this may be driving up the backlog, as inexperienced learners take any test available for fear of missing out on a slot later on.
