I would like to advise that all candidates are assessed to the same level
and the result of their test is entirely dependent on their performance on
the day. As you may appreciate, it is essential that all drivers
demonstrate they have the right skills, knowledge and attitude to drive
safely. The driver testing and training regime tests candidates’ ability
to drive safely and responsibly as well as making sure they know the
theory behind safe driving.
If you are unhappy with the way we have handled your request, you can ask
for an internal review by contacting Vasim Choudhary, Public Liaison
Manager, at [2][email address] or at the above address.
Yours sincerely
Clare Limb
Public Liaison Manager
