I passed my test when I was 17 I’m 58 now I was ordered to retake and do a extended test after finishing a ban I passed first time on the 24_12_20 with Peter a very nice and fair man if you can drive you will pass I liked the test center thanks Peter you are a ⭐️

I had Nick for my test , he is a really nice guy he put me at ease straight away I felt very comfortable.

 by Olga

Driving routes are quite challenging, very easy to make a mistake. My examiner Peter was very strict, but fair. Don't hope your mistakes will be unnoticed. But if you drive well, he will pass you.

 by Luke

Be warned Peter is basically a robot with no personality designed to fail you for anything and don't get me wrong I'm all for equal opportunity but the disabled guy Nick very obviously has a chip on his shoulder, has poor eyesight and is looking to fail you. I have been failed for what me and my instructor deemed minor offences and not serious faults on multiple occasions and their debriefs are very unclear and unhelpful.

 by Unknown

If you have the unfortunate displeasure of having Peter as your test examiner prepare for disappointments will not pass you, no personality no expression and extremely unfair on examination... seems to enjoy telling you that you have failed that was the only time I have ever seen a slight movement of the mouth !!
