Maidstone – Document Checks
The driving test at Maidstone practical driving test centre will start off with the driving examiner requested to see your provisional photocard driving licence. You will and the asked to sign a declaration confirming that you have lived in the UK for the past six months and that you have bought a car that is insured for you to drive. The driving examiner will then ask you to read the number it at a distance of 20 m. Having passed the eyesight test, you will be asked and tell me question with regard to vehicle safety before the actual drive.
Maidstone – Reverse Exercise
The driving test from Maidstone will involve one or reverse manoeuvers. As the test centre has a car park with marked bay, there is a good possibility of being asked to carry out the bay park exercise right at the beginning of the test. If the bay park exercises not requested, the driving examiner may ask you to carry out the parallel Park or the stop on the right manoeuvre on a public road. Whichever manoeuver you are requested, it is most important remember the observations, before during the manoeuvre is vital. More learner drivers fail on the observations rather than the manoeuvre itself.

Many busy urban roads surround Maidstone driving test centre which will form part of the driving test route. The driving examiner will it have excellent knowledge and skills dealing with various road systems. This will include the roundabout as well as large multilane roundabouts. Also, you should expect to deal with marked and unmarked crossroads along with junctions of all sorts.

Manual or Automatic Intensive Driving Lessons
It’s easier to pass your driving test in a week by taking an automatic car compared to a manual. This is because you don’t have the extra task of changing gears, especially on approach to junctions such as roundabouts. This, in turn, means that you will have more time to focus on the speed and observations on the approach to such junctions. Once you’ve passed your driving test in an automatic, you will be restricted to driving only automatics. However, you are most welcome to upgrade to a manual license by retaking and passing another test.
