Frequently Asked Questions
Why hire a car for my driving test?
There are many reasons why you might want to hire one of our cars for your driving test.
- You may not have access to a car.
- Your car may not have a valid NCT or tax disc.
- There may be a warning light on your dashboard.
- Your car may be a little older and you are worried that it may not be accepted by the tester.
- You want the peace of mind that hiring a perfectly maintained car form Driving Test Car Hire will undoubtedly provide.
Why might my car be refused by the driving examiner?
Each driving tester has the discretion to not conduct a driving test if they feel the car they will be sitting in for the driving test is not road legal or roadworthy. Legitimate reasons for not conducting a driving test include no tax, insurance or NCT. Any non working or faded bulbs will bring any driving test to an immediate stop. Tyres with a tread depth below 1.6 mm or not correctly inflated will also bring your test to a grinding halt. In fact if the tester is unhappy with anything he sees he can refuse to conduct the test. In the event this happens you will forfeit your driving test fee and have to reapply again.
Will using Driving Test Car Hire improve my chances of passing the test?
Of course, you will be expertly coached by the best instructors in the business and be assured of using a perfectly maintained car for your driving test.
What do I need to bring for my Driving Test?
