DSA Practical Test
 |
|
The
driving test is conducted by a Driving Standards
Agency Examiner and lasts between 38 - 40 minutes.
The routes are used to include a typical range of
traffic and road conditions and starts and finishes
from your local Driving Test Centre, on average you
drive for about 8-miles during this period. The
Examiner tests your ability to ride safely and
competently and tests you on all that you have
learnt during your lessons. You can fail the test if
you commit a serious or dangerous fault, or if you
have 15 or more driving faults. |
During
the test you will have to complete three manoeuvres: putting
the bike on and off either its main or side stand, a u-turn
whilst riding the bike and whilst pushing the bike and an
emergency stop.
Immediately after the test the Examiner will advise you if
you have passed or failed. If unfortunately you have failed
you will be advised where you went wrong and given a printed
sheet with the details. This sheet will be useful to show
your motorbike instructor to assess what further training is
required. You can apply for another driving test straight
away providing 10 working days has elapsed between each
test.
New
changes to the Practical Test will be introduced on the
1st September 2003. The changes will be conducted at the
beginning of your Driving Test and will consist of the
examiner asking you two of the following questions on
vehicle safety checks. One or both questions answered
incorrectly will result in one fault being recorded on
your test.
