What to Expect on Test Day at Knaresborough:

Upon arrival at the Knaresborough test centre, you’ll meet your driving examiner, who will guide you through the initial steps of the test. First, you’ll complete a number plate eyesight test from a distance of 20.5 metres.

Please plan to arrive no earlier than ten minutes before your scheduled test time. Once you pass the eyesight check, you’ll get into the vehicle, where the examiner will ask you to demonstrate your knowledge of the car's features. This will include a "tell-me" question to confirm your familiarity with the vehicle.

Your driving test will take approximately 40 minutes and will involve navigating independently around the Knaresborough area for about 20 minutes. During the test, your driving skills will be assessed, including a manoeuvre and, potentially, an emergency stop.

Examiners have the authority to halt the test if necessary. By taking driving lessons and completing our online driving course, you’ll build the skills, confidence, and knowledge needed to pass your test on the first attempt.
