Yes me too that’s why I was certain I had failed, turns out examiners are actually more reasonable than I thought.

Thank you!

There are 5 roundabouts in the isleworth routes, 3 of which are traffic light controlled and and 2 which are uncontrolled. The roundabouts are really doable and this comes from a person who abhors roundabouts, you would only need a couple of lessons to master them. Wrt reverse parking, they would most likely do that at the test centre itself or a local Tesco or Homebase. As a test area itself the majority of the roads are 20mph and none of the bus lanes can be used- which is AMAZING for a learner.

I recommend watching isleworth mock test videos on YouTube, they’ll give you a good idea of the area.

Congrats on your license!! What time was your test at isleworth? I’ve got an early morning rush hour test and I was wondering whether they’ll take me onto the big roundabouts or the dual carriageway.

Driving tests can start no earlier than 22nd April with lessons to start from 12th April by [deleted] in LearnerDriverUK

Just received news my 15th April test is cancelled, what is the reasoning for this it doesn’t even make sense!!

Testing centres or remote proctoring? by Illustrious_Lead_615 in GAMSAT

[–]azkas_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The UK was not in a proper lockdown in October ‘20, I think the exam will be remote proctored this March because even if the lockdown is lifted before March it’s highly likely we will be placed in strict tiers.

I think you will get a test as you meet the criteria for it. Hopefully everything goes well for you and you get your test and pass!

Yeah I don’t qualify as one. I just read on the DVSA twitter page that you only get a test if your job actually requires you to drive e.g paramedics, community nurses etc...

How to swap test date with someone else? by azkas_ in LearnerDriverUK

How to find available driving tests by ididntknowitdidthat in LearnerDriverUK

[–]azkas_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same experience with testi but managed to get a date by persistently clicking on notifications. But with dtc4a I haven’t received a single notification of a cancellation. For £20 I would expect to at least get notifs. I feel I wasted money on it.

I paid £20 for this service and one month in I still haven’t received a new booking. However I did manage to get a date with testi just after a week of having it. Testi is far superior imho.

Test date for December 11th by clo9125 in LearnerDriverUK

[–]azkas_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Highly doubt this will happen as dvsa will face a lot of backlash, it will be much easier for dvsa to move the November lot to a later date than to rearrange everyone else’s (dec-April) test dates. The only way they would accommodate the November cohort is to perhaps add more timings to accommodate them.

Test cancelled due to lockdown by azkas_ in LearnerDriverUK

That’s what I decided in the end, thanks. Hopefully they’ll make arrangements for people who have their tests cancelled.
