Driving Tests: Waiting Lists
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Transport, if she will make an assessment of the potential impact of average waiting times for driving tests on the economy.
Answered by Lilian Greenwood
The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) knows that car practical driving test waiting times remain high and understands the impact this is having on learner drivers.
DVSA does not record, or hold, information about candidates whose driving licence is a requirement of their current, or potential, employment.
DVSA’s main priority is to uphold road safety standards as it reduces car practical driving test waiting times.
