Driving Test Cancellation Policy (Vehicle Breakdown)

In the unlikely event that your driving test is cancelled due to a sudden and unforeseen mechanical breakdown of the tuition vehicle, and where we had already agreed to attend the test using that vehicle, the following terms will apply:

  1. I will reimburse only the official DVSA test fee (£62 for a weekday test or £75 for a weekend/evening test, as applicable).
  2. I will also, at my own cost, arrange to book a new DVSA driving test for you at the earliest possible date through the official DVSA booking system.
  3. No reimbursement or compensation will be made for any additional costs paid to third-party or non-DVSA booking providers, or for any loss of earnings, travel expenses, or inconvenience caused by the cancellation.

All pupils are bound by these Terms & Conditions.
