DVSA update
Mobile emergency testing service
To help stop the spread of coronavirus, routine practical driving tests have been suspended in England, Scotland and Wales.
A limited theory test and practical testing service will be introduced in England and Wales. This will be available to:
NHS health and social care workers
the emergency services
local councils
Who need to both:
drive as part of their job
respond to 'threats to life' as part of their job
Because of the current COVID restrictions, we are not able to offer a mobile emergency worker test service in Scotland.
These tests will be carried out by examiners who have volunteered to continue to test during lockdown.
We will be contacting these organisations directly to explain how they can access this service.
