The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) is introducing modifications to the driving test, effective from 24 November, which will prioritise the navigation of rapid and rural roads. This shift is specifically pertinent to learner drivers in Lincolnshire, given the substantial role rural driving plays in their daily commute. The modifications encompass the deduction of stops executed during the test, thus allocating candidates more opportunities to exhibit their capabilities in dealing with the types of roads prevalent in the county. Given that Lincolnshire is principally a rural area, these modifications aim to equip new drivers more effectively for the exceptional challenges presented by our local road network.
