If you’ve managed to secure a last-minute driving test appointment, in Bermondsey you’ll have to arrange for an emergency driving instructor who can accompany you to the test. The DVSA driving examiner doesn’t provide a vehicle. You must ensure you have a car available for the test. While most learner drivers typically rely on their instructor’s car it can be quite challenging to find instructors in Bermondsey as they tend to be booked several months in advance.

One option worth considering is renting a car for the driving test in Bermondsey. However, any rented vehicle must meet the requirements set by DVSA. Firstly the rental car must be equipped with controls. Secondly, it must be insured appropriately for your participation in the test. Keep in mind that while most car insurance policies cover driving activities they may not extend coverage to include tests like this one. Lastly, ensure that the vehicle you bring to the test has L plates and an interior mirror allowing the examiner visibility through the window.

Regardless of your situation – whether you’re a learner driver facing unavailability or disappointment from your instructor or even if you’re an international driver – if you require an emergency rental car for your driving test, within Bermondsey and its surrounding area DTC Driving School is here to assist.
