MARKET SUMMARY

1.1 Definition

A driver's licence is an "examination that gives you the authorization to drive a suitable motor vehicle". This permit is generally restricted to a fixed geographical area. Depending on the country, the criteria for issuance (test, minimum age) vary. Thus, in Great Britain, you must be at least 17 years old to obtain a car licence and at least 16 years old to obtain a motorcycle licence.

The authority in charge of issuing the permit is the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency

Driving schools in the United Kingdom are numerous. They train candidates to pass theoretical and practical tests.

The permit is mandatory throughout the territory (Wales, England and Scotland), for anyone wishing to drive on roads, as defined by section S 192 of the Road Traffic Act.

The theoretical test is composed of two parts a MCQ and a hazard perception test. This theoretical test is valid for both the car and motorcycle licence. It is mandatory to pass this test and then take the practical test. The latter lasts almost 40 minutes.
