This is okay for those candidates who are academically minded but there are those out there who have failed their GCSE's, often being labelled as lazy or not concentrating, and yet these people go on to have fantastic careers. The theory test is academically based, yes of course candidates need to have road knowledge and sign knowledge, but just because they do not have the academic ability to pass the theory test doesnt mean they are stupid and cannot succeed at driving. This type of disability is not recognised by DSA

To be honest I would hope that everyone on here would obtain a pass mark, we are talking about driving experts who have an enthusiasm for driving

Fantastic idea

I am led to believe the civil servants sitting in their offices compile the questions. A couple of years ago ADIs were invited to attend meetings and devise questions, what the outcome of that was I dont know
I also believe the question bank is 'overhauled' regularly just by adding more questions. I could be wrong on these points though
