Number of refused practical driving tests due to not Wearring of face coverings and Covid 19 related issues?
Dear Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency,
I would like to know please the number of category B “L tests” driving tests that have been cancelled on the day of arranged test at the time of appointment by the driving examiners own decision.
How many have been cancelled nationally.
How many have been cancelled across Lancashire
In particular how many have been cancelled at Blackburn with Darwen test centre
Commercial road
BB3 0BD
At the above test centre which examiners have cancelled tests on arrival
And IMPORTANTLY does by law a candidate have to arrive WEARING a face covering as long as they have one with them to wear for test.
Is there a set time limit for an examiner to wipe down the passenger side of the vehicle.
Yours faithfully,
Monty
