Driving test rules to change in bid to stop bots booking slots
Published: 11/12/2025

The UK government plans to change driving test booking rules to prevent bots from reselling slots and reduce long waiting lists. Learner drivers will be the only ones allowed to book tests, with instructors banned from booking on their behalf. The changes aim to address the backlog of driving tests caused by increased demand and prevent inflated prices charged by third-party sellers.
