It’s a question that crops up regularly from pupils approaching their driving test, and an area that most of the general public have a view on, but where is an evidence to support such a view?

My personal view is that in this day and age, where public information is freely available and jounalists seeming to be able to infultrate even the most high powered of area of our country, I cannot believe that if the DSA were somehow able to control the number of passes or indeed the number of fails during the driving test, that we would not have heard about it with facts to back it up!

I think that it’s easier for both pupils and instructors to believe there is some conspiracy, rather than facing the fact that the pupil was just not good enough on the day.

How much easier for the pupil to go home and tell all their friends that they only failed because it was Friday afternoon when they took their test and that the examiner had to fail so many pupils that week, rather than explain, it was done to their own fault that the examiner had to fail them!

Well there are two main reasons in my opinion - not enough practice or preperation - or nerves getting the better of you on the day of your test.

So what can you do to help yourself pass the driving test?

Firstly make sure that you have good quality driving lessons from a qualified driving instructor, don’t leave it to chance.

Secondly make sure you are not too nervous on the day of your test. This is more difficult to overcome and depends on you, any good instructor will recognise the signs and give you advice and encouragement to enable you to pass. You could also try medication, I know many pupils that have taken Kalms before their test and passed but you should seek medical advice from your doctor beforehand.

Why do so many people think that they will be able to pass their driving test without having had driving lessons with a qualified driving instructor.

The driving test is getting harder to pass for a reason, to cut down the amount of accidents on the road and make them a safer place. Without the help of an instructor how do you know what the examiners are looking for, and why do people think they can just turn up and pass their test.

To be a safe driver for life, you need to get driving lessons from an expert like Chequers Motoring School, who will give you the knowledge and expertise to drive on today’s busy roads.

Don’t leave it to chance, get help!
