The Driver Theory Test service resumed full operations on 8th June 2020, with some operational changes due to Covid-19 measures to minimize the risk to both candidates and staff.

Inevitably, there is a backlog of candidates waiting to take the test.

A candidate who believes they have a valid case for being allowed to sit the Driver Theory Test before others in the queue can email the National Driver Licence Service explaining why, and they may be allocated an earlier time slot.
