What to do if you’ve failed your driving test?

[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css_animation=”rollIn”]If you’ve just failed your driving test, you’re not alone. Over 50% of all driving students fail their test, but regardless, it can feel like a real setback. You may feel like you’ve failed your driving test for no reason, you may be resenting yourself for a silly mistake, or you may even feel sad and depressed after.[/vc_column_text][vc_pie value=”47″ color=”sky” css_animation=”rollIn” title=”Pass rate” units=”%”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css_animation=”rollIn”]Worry not, though; as much of an inconvenience as it is, there’s thankfully loads you can do to ensure you’ll smash it when it comes to rebooking and retaking your driving test![/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css_animation=”rollIn”]

What to do first?

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”rollIn”]First things first, how long after you fail your driving test do you need to wait until you can take the next one? You only have to wait ten working days before you can retake, so be sure to start looking for a booking spot as soon as possible.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css_animation=”rollIn”]

How to get another test?

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”rollIn”]Now of course, finding a free slot to take your test can be difficult, with some areas having a waiting time of months. One of the best ways to ‘cut the queue’ is to take a slot where someone else has cancelled. If you don’t want to spend 24 hours of your day constantly refreshing the booking page, the incredibly useful Driving Test Cancellation Checker does the hard work for you! It’ll notify you when a slot becomes available, allowing you to retake that driving test in no time.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css_animation=”rollIn”]

Maybe nerves got the better of you?

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”rollIn”]If your nerves got the better of you when it came to your driving test, then don’t worry, since it happens to the best of us. Nervousness can cause us to make erratic and short-sighted decisions that can impact our driving. However, if you want to walk into your second driving test with confidence, then the Driving Test Nerves Online Course can seriously help boost your esteem. It’ll help eliminate your fear, intimidation and embarrassment, and will put you in the right mindset to pass your test with flying colours.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css_animation=”rollIn”]

Time on the road will help

[/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css_animation=”rollIn”]Experience is everything when it comes to building up your driving skills, and driving on the road with learner drivers’ insurance and a fully-licenced passenger is a great way to get hours of driving under your belt in your free time. You’ll need L-plates to signify you’re a learner driver though, as it’s a legal requirement. Once you do successfully pass your second attempt, consider P-plates, which tells drivers that you’ve recently passed, and you may need more time as you build up your confidence.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css_animation=”rollIn”]

Warning – Only use this if you are ready!

Many centres have multiple test routes, and it can be hard to remember them all. Luckily, you can access all the possible routes of your driving test centre with the Driving Test Routes service! With it, you can memorise tricky road layouts, and better anticipate where you’ll be going.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css_animation=”rollIn”]

Driving lessons are infamously not the cheapest, so why not take state-of-the-art 3D graphical lessons instead? It offers you real-world driving situations which will allow you to further familiarise yourself with roads, and will further increase your confidence for your next test.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css_animation=”rollIn”]
