Mock Tests in Downend

FAQ
A mock driving test in Downend costs £62 — deliberately the same as the current weekday DVSA practical test fee, so you get the full mock experience for the same money as the real thing.
It's a realistic 1-hour test-style session with a professional My Four Wheels instructor in Downend. Your instructor acts as the examiner, directing you along a pre-planned route and assessing your driving across the same areas covered in the real DVSA practical test. At the end you get a detailed debrief with honest feedback on your faults and what to practise.
The session runs as close to a real DVSA test as possible. Your instructor directs you along a pre-planned route on town centre and country roads and assesses your driving in silence, just as an examiner would. That covers general road driving, independent driving, junctions and roundabouts, manoeuvres, speed awareness, lane discipline, observation, and planning. Afterwards you get a full debrief.
Bring your provisional driving licence and glasses or contact lenses if you need them for driving — the same things you'd need on real test day. Your instructor provides the dual-control car, so there's nothing else to organise.
