The average learner driver is waiting 6 weeks longer for a driving test compared to a year ago, and the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) have announced plans to try to slash the wait time significantly before 2025 is out. Figures from the DVSA in February show a 20-year high for waiting times across the UK.
