OCTOBER 4-week circuit breaker. At the moment driving lessons are allowed to continue. However this could change very quickly.
Lessons have resumed on a reduced availability basis.
Driving tests have also re-commenced but with a massive demand it is near impossible to get a date. DVA say they are working hard to try and address this but with a six-month backlog it will take a long time to catch up. Just the way it is, unfortunately.
*** SCAM WEBSITES ***
Be very careful when booking theory or driving tests online. Make sure you use the official nidirect.gov.uk website as some sites will book your test but add another £30 or £40 when you confirm the appointment. Danny has direct links on the Help/FAQs page.
