Extend how long a DVSA theory test lasts due to the government created backlog
Extend how long the theory test lasts when completed, there's currently an epidemic with it and a 21 week back log, that effectively gives you 4 attempts in 2 years which is a complete joke, it should be extended to reflect the backlog you created
Because they created the backlog, also they're allowing users to go on there and block book test slots and sell them at a premium which is absolutely ludicrous meaning new drivers can't get on the road, surely the government want more people to drive so they can tax us more as we know they LOVE doing that
