Driving Schools pupils could find themselves paying a lot more money if the DVSA decides to go ahead with plans to increase the number of hours a driving school pupil must take before attending the practical driving test at any of the UK driving test centers.

Recently it was put forward that learners should have take a minimum of 120 hours of driving lessons spread over at least 1 year of practical driving before they are allowed to attempt a driving test, with 20 of those driving lessons having to be in the dark. Only driving lessons with a professional driving instructor would actually count towards your 120 driving hours and driving schools and driving instructors would have to sign off those driving hours, meaning that any extra driving lessons you do with parents or friends would not count. Which of course would increase the financial cost involved and potentially ensuring that independent driving instructors stayed fully booked for at least a year. Pupils would really need to sign up with large driving schools similar to ourselves who have multiple driving instructors so can guarantee you driving lessons with an immediate start. Obviously these are only driving test proposals and nothing is set in stone and are suggestions made with the best intention with increased Road Safety in mind

Driving test candidates now face some New Driving Test Changes 2026, which affect how practical driving tests can be booked.

Practical Driving Test Changes – What Learner Drivers Need to Know

The way driving tests are booked has changed in recent years. As a result, learner drivers now need to plan ahead and be more flexible when looking for a test date. The DVSA continues to make changes to reduce waiting times and improve access to practical tests across the UK.

How the DVSA Driving Test Booking System Has Changed

Many learners now face longer waiting lists than before. Therefore, it is important to book your driving test as early as possible. Once you have passed your theory test, you can secure a practical driving test date and continue preparing with your instructor.

In addition, learners can use the official DVSA booking service to manage test appointments. This includes changing test dates, updating details and checking availability. However, available appointments can change quickly, especially at busy test centres.

Preparing for Your Practical Test Under the New System

Although booking a test may take more planning, passing your test still comes down to good preparation and quality driving lessons. Therefore, it is important to choose an experienced driving instructor who understands local test routes and current DVSA requirements.

At Elevate Driving School, we help learners prepare for driving tests at Colwick, Chilwell, Ashfield and Derby Driving Test Centres. Furthermore, our fully qualified instructors provide clear guidance, structured lessons and practical advice to help learners build confidence behind the wheel.

Many learners also choose intensive driving courses. As a result, they can gain experience quickly and become test ready in a shorter period of time. Whether you choose weekly lessons or an intensive course, regular practice is essential.

Most importantly, learners should focus on developing safe driving habits rather than simply passing the test. By doing this, they become confident and responsible drivers for life.

Intensive Driving Courses Nottingham

Finally, if you are planning to book a driving test soon, it is wise to stay informed about the latest DVSA updates. Rules and waiting times can change. Therefore, checking official information regularly can help you avoid delays and make better decisions about your driving journey.

All our driving schools pupils after passing their driving test at at any of the many driving test centers in Nottingham will have to be extremely careful when parking their newly bought cars in the City of Nottingham.

Be warned that motorists will only be allowed 5 minutes to buy a parking ticket when parking in Nottingham as part of Nottingham City Council’s attempt to bridge a huge shortfall in their budget, the old time leeway used to be 10 minutes as we all know but that will now be halved… A brief warning which we hope will guide all our previous pupils who often visit our Elevate Driving School news page to keep current on motoring news even after they have passed their driving test with us here at Elevate, a Nottingham Driving School. There are lots of alternative areas in which you can park in the City Center all which have well policed areas to park and CCTV which will help to prevent vehicle crime and other forms of anti social behaviour which can happen when leaving your vehicle unnattended. You could always consider leaving your car at home safely tucked away in the garage or on the driveway and use alternative forms of transport into and out from the City Center for example the bus or with Nottinghams new Tram System, getting around Nottingham to do some shopping is just getting easier and easier  www.drivinglessonsnottinghamelevate.com
