Changes to the driving test are to be introduced and will include candidates driving "independently" for a period without getting step-by-step directions from their examiner.

Candidates will be asked to follow, for around 10 minutes, a route that they will be shown in advance.

However, the Driving Standards Agency (DSA), which is no longer publishing test routes online, stressed that candidates can ask for reminders of their route as they drive and they will not be failed for going off route.

Another change involves those taking the test only having to complete one of the three reversing manoeuvres, instead of two at present.

:scratchchin:

If Brake object to this then it must be good.
