Your examiner will be a current or ex advance Police drivers whom will have been trained to the highest available standard in the country. The test is conducted in a professional manner, but by far a very friendly approach is taken by the examiners who will put you at ease in no time.
On the IAM test there is just one pass standard. You receive verbal feedback at the end of the test. If you continue your annual subscription you retain your official status indefinitely. The RoSPA test is graded Gold, Silver or Bronze standard, or Ungraded. You receive verbal feedback at the end of your test, and a written report subsequently. To retain your official status you have to take retests at intervals - after 3 years if you pass at Gold or Silver standard, after 1 year if you pass at Bronze. All retests are free of charge, if you are ungraded you can also retake the test after 3-6 months free of charge; but there is an annual membership subscription.
Both IAM and RoSPA tests are of similar format, a 90 minute drive on a variety of town and country roads and, where possible, a motorway section. Before starting, you will be asked to run through a vehicle safety check. Shortly after moving away, you will need to test the brakes. Your driving should be smooth, safe, progressive, controlled, efficient and sympathetic of the car. Your manner should be calm and courteous. You will need to demonstrate good awareness, anticipation, and concentration throughout the drive. You will be asked to perform some slow manoeuvres, and to answer some questions relating to the Highway Code and vehicle maintenance. During your drive you will be given the option of delivering a commentary, which could enhance the result or the grade. At the end of the test, you will be given your result, and receive feedback about the drive.
After passing which advance driving test you choose there are benefits of membership depending on which organisation you take your test with. Personally I would take both tests.

Access Instructor Training is one of the most premier independently owned driving Instructor-Training establishments in the Midlands. All our Instructors Trainers are: Department of Transport approved. Institute of advanced motorist. Royal Society for the Prevention of Accidents. Cardington grade A Instructors. Driving Instructors Association. We also abide by the Driving Standards Agency Code of Conduct. This means we are governed by a strict set of rules covering the quality of our trainers, facilities, methods and materials. We operate an equal opportunities policy and are committed to providing you, whatever your sex, race or ability (provided you can fulfil the legal requirements), with the best quality personalised training possible in an informal, friendly manner.
1 Give you sound, economical
training to meet both your individual needs and those of the Approved Driving
Instructor qualifying exams.
2 Use up to date training materials and modern, straightforward methods.
3 Provide experienced and highly qualified staff for all your training.
4 Operate an equal opportunities policy.
5 Abide by the Driving Standards Agency Code of Conduct.
6 Consider your individual needs above those of any other corporate body.
7 Guarantee driving school placement to all graduates, if required.
The Road
Our training programme is designed to merge with the Driving Standards Agency's three-part exam. You must pass each stage before moving on to the next. You can take the Part 1 test as many times as you need to, although most people pass first time, and you can have up to three attempts at passing Parts 2 and 3. Your Trainer will advise you when you are ready for the exam thus giving you the best chance of passing. We'll do all we can to make sure you pass!
Because we treat our students as individuals, we might ask you to repeat a section of the course, set you homework, give you extra training material or ask you to practice certain skills. We do this in your interest, to help you get the most out of your training and give you the highest chance of passing all three parts.
Your course is planned around your ability, everyday commitments and the test dates. From the time you pass the first Part 1 exam you then have up to two years to pass Part 3.
as a new driver you are more likely to have accident in the first year after passing your test than any other time throughout your motoring career. Lack of experience means that you could be as much as TWO SECONDS slower than a more practised motorist in recognising danger - and that may be the two seconds difference between life and death.
Young drivers are especially vunerable. They hold 10% of licences, but they are involved in 20% of accident in which someone is injured.
What's Involved
When you have passed your test you can a take a pass plus course, which is 6 specially designed training lessons.
These cover
In town driving
Out of town driving
In all weathers driving
At night driving
On dual carriageways driving
On motorways driving
Because
you are trained by a professional under Pass Plus you quickly gain
valuable
extra experience
and positive driving skills that would other wise take
a long time to acquire. There is no further test to take. When your instructor
is
satisfied with your performance you receive a certificate from the Driving
Standards Agency. This certificate will entitle you, from the majority of
insurance companies
up 30% discount of your initial premium you could also receive discount if
you are
added on your parents all partners car insurance. What's more taking Pass
Plus
just might save your life and probably not cost you a penny.
Test vehicle requirements for a car test.
Cars presented for test must be:
A four wheeled vehicle of no more than 3500 kilograms (kg) maximum authorised
mass (MAM)
capable of a speed of at least 100 kilometres per hour (km/h) or 62.5 miles
per hour (mph)
The car must also be fitted with:
A seatbelt for the examiner.
A passenger head restraint, this needn't be adjustable but must be fitted
as an integral part of the seat - 'slip on' type head restraints aren't permitted.
An interior mirror for the examiner's use.
L-plates displayed on the front and rear of the vehicle but not interfering
with the driver's or examiner's view
A speedometer that measures speed in miles per hour and kilometres per hour
The vehicle must be legal and roadworthy and have no warning lights showing ie the airbag warning light.
Convertible vehicles
Some convertible vehicles are unsuitable for the driving test – eg the Ford KA convertible and Mini convertible due to the lack of all-round vision for the examiner. If you propose to use a convertible vehicle for the driving test please check its suitability when you book.
Suitability of vehicles for Category B tests.
The vast majority of hatchbacks, saloons and estate cars are suitable for test, but increasingly the designers of cars are producing models with sweeping lines which have good forward vision but have large blind spots to the rear and present examiners with problems of observation.
Vehicles for test must allow examiners all round vision to allow them to
see approaching vehicles, particularly when the car is at an angle to other
vehicles during reversing manoeuvres and also when emerging at a junction
with the vehicle at an angle to the major road.
If you are learning with Access Driving Tuition you will normally have the opportunity to take the test in your Instructors car.
Documents to take with you:
At the driving test centre
You must bring the following items with you. If you do not, the Driving Standards
Agency (DSA) may refuse to carry out the test and you may lose your fee.
An appropriately insured and licensed vehicle, displaying L- Plates that is suitable for the purpose of the test.
The appropriate theory test pass certificate (or confirmation) if you are
not exempt.
Your appointment letter.
Both parts of your Photo Card Licence. If you do not take both parts of your
licence your test will not take place and you will lose your fee.
If you have an old-style paper licence, you must take your signed driver licence
and a valid passport - from 1 November 2005 no other form of photographic
identification will be accepted.
Remember:
No licence
No photo
No test, and
YOU will lose your fee.
You
Arrive at the test centre in plenty of time and try to relax do not turn the examiner into some mystical monster. If you have trained with Access Driving Tuition you will already be to a good standard so have confidence in yourself. All the examiner wants to see you do is drive without being a hazard to any other road user.
After introducing himself, the examiner will get in the front passenger's seat, and explain briefly to you how the test works. You'll be asked to start the car and move away, and you're off!
You have
about 35-45 minutes in the car; that time includes two of the three possible
slow manoeuvres, turn in the road, reversing round a corner, or reverse parking
behind
a car, and you may be required to do an emergency stop. The reverse bay-parking
manoeuvre may take place off-road at the test centre. During the test it is
also likely
that you will be asked to demonstrate a hill-start and an angled start. The
rest of the
time is taken up with general driving on the chosen test route.
You will be expected to deal competently and safely with every situation that you find, but some minor driving faults are permitted. These are errors that do not in themselves create an actual or potential danger to other road users. They are recorded on the examiner's test form, and if you make 16 or more of these driving faults you will fail the test. You will also fail if you make a serious or dangerous error.
This may sound an awful lot to do but believe me it isn't really; if you have been trained to a good standard most of the above will be second nature.
When you've switched the engine off at the end of the test the examiner will tell you whether you have passed or failed if you've passed, your driving licence will be needed for the examiner to fill in the pass certificate. You need to send this to DVLA with your provisional licence, and you will receive your full licence in a few days' time. You can drive on your own in the meantime providing you keep a record of your Driver Number.
Good Luck
The theory test is made up of two parts; the multiple choice part and the hazard perception part. The multiple choice part is delivered using a touch screen computer and mouse and the hazard perception part records your responses through the use of a computer mouse button.You need to pass both parts to pass the theory test. If you pass one part and fail the other you will fail the whole test, and you will need to take both parts again.
----------------------------------------------------------
Part
one - multiple choice
Before the test starts you will be given instructions on how the test
works.
You can also choose to go through a practice session of the multiple choice questions to get used to the layout of the test. At the end of the practice session the real test will begin.
A question and several answer options will appear onscreen and you have to select the correct answer to the question by touching the screen or using the mouse. Some questions may require more than one answer.
You will be asked 50 questions in 57 minutes. You can navigate between questions and ‘flag’ questions that you want to come back to later in the test.
The pass mark for the multiple choice part of the theory test is 43 out of 50.
After the multiple choice part you can choose to have a break of up to three minutes before the hazard perception part starts.
----------------------------------------------------------
Part two – hazard perception
After the break you will then be shown a short tutorial video clip about
how the hazard perception part works.
The hazard perception part is also delivered on a computer but you respond by clicking a button on the mouse. You will be presented with a series of 14 video clips which feature every day road scenes. In each clip there will be at least one developing hazard, but one of the clips will feature two developing hazards.
To achieve a high score you will need to respond to the developing hazard during the early part of its development. The maximum you can score on each hazard is five.
You will not be able to review your answers to the hazard perception test; as on the road, you will only have one chance to respond to the developing hazard.
The pass mark for the car and motorcycle hazard perception part of the theory test is 44 out of 75.
----------------------------------------------------------
At the end of the test
At the end of the hazard perception part of the theory test you will
be invited to answer a number of customer survey questions.
You do not have to answer the questions if you do not want to, and any information given is anonymous and confidential. The survey questions do not affect the result of the test.
When you have finished
the test you may leave the examination room. Once you have left the
room, you will not be allowed to enter it again. You will then be given
your result by the test centre staff.
