Getting Your Results
As soon as your Practical test is over, the examiner will tell you whether you’ve passed or failed.
If you passed, well done.You can now enjoy driving yourself around without the need to have someone else in the car. Your examiner will ask for your provisional licence, which he or she will send off to the DVLA to apply for a full licence. In the meantime, you’ll get a pass certificate as well as a report that highlights any minor faults you made during the test.
If you failed, bad luck. Your examiner will spend a few moments with you and your instructor to explain why. They’ll also give you a test report that highlights what went wrong. But don’t get down about it – you can reapply for a test straight away and only have to wait 10 working days for a retake. Your instructor will drive you home – so use the time to quiz them about how to pass next time.
