Stoke Theory Test Centre
The theory test is a mandatory requirement for anyone wanting to drive in England, Wales or Northern Ireland. It tests your ability to understand road signs and traffic rules, and also assesses your knowledge of vehicle safety.
Bus
The bus is a popular mode of transport around the world, especially in large cities. It’s cheap, easy to use, and it doesn’t require any special skills or equipment to operate. There are two main types of buses – double decker buses and single deckers. Double decker buses offer better views, but they take longer to drive than single deckers. Single deckers tend to be cheaper, but they don’t provide the same level of comfort.

The majority of people who take the test will fail it. If you don’t pass, you won’t be allowed to drive at all. But if you do pass, you’ll need a licence before you can legally drive again.

Book a test to upgrade your licence
The UK has one of the most progressive road traffic laws in the world. It’s not uncommon for people to take advantage of this by booking a test at a driving school to improve their skills before they apply for a new license.
