The high speed and other exercises will be tested off-road and will take about eight minutes.
This will be followed by the on-road part of the test, but those who have been dangerously incompetent in the off-road section will NOT be allowed to continue.
To deliver this test, their will eventually be 65 new test centres throughout the UK. Some of these will be at 'multi-purpose' test centres for cars and motorcycles.
Take a look at the new multipurpose test centre situated in St Helens. The address is: 1 Navigation Way, Off Pocket Nook Street, St Helens, WA91LA. (Bigger Pics will open in a new window)
