Driving Test

[Eastender]

Hi I am not sure if I have heard right. But the other day I heard someone saying they have their drving test coming up and their Driving Instructor will be sitting in the car whilst they are taking it? Is this a new thing or do I need Otex for my lugs? cheers

"You are allowed to take someone with you on the test, this person must be over 16 years old and cannot take any part in the test."

This has been the case as far back as I can remember.

i am belive it or not a driving examiner. if the student asks for their instructor to sit in on the test they can. they must sit behind the examiner as not to kick the underside of the seat when needed. belive me its better with out them. you only have to drive for one person then.
