THE DRIVING TEST IN Elswick

One-way-systems may also feature.

The emergency stop procedure may be requested as will one of the four driving test manoeuvres. All practical driving tests for cars must now feature around 20 minutes of independent driving where you are required to follow either directions from a sat nav, or road signs.

Dual carriageway systems such as the A1 are likely. By browsing the Elswick driving test routes section, you will gain a good understanding on the various road types and traffic systems that the examiner will take you on.

The examiner I had was silent the whole way and constantly kept yawning, playing with her hair and nails, which to say the least was off putting for me being nervous and all. I just felt like they didn't want to be there and couldn't be less interested.

Great friendly examiner. I previously tried in Gateshead and the examiner was very stern and did not make me feel at all at ease. Completely different experience in elswick which instantly put me at ease and led to me being a lot more confident. Gateshead could learn a lot from these guys! Thanks for a pleasant test experience!

Although I failed my test, the examiner was exceptionally nice, he wasn't trying to make things more difficult, he explained my faults...
