Driving test cancelation app

Is the Cancelation app worth it.

We all including driving instructors are fed up with the waiting time for driving test. So after Covid every one started using the cancelation app to look for earlier driving test but is it worth it. Also how do these apps get you a earlier driving test.

How do they do it?

You download the app put in your booking reference driving licence number and anything else it asks for, you then pay your fee and wait. But what happens then. The companies that run these apps use your details to find test not only for you but other people too from your details.  All that is needed for them to do this is your details they are allowed to use your details six times. So once your details have been used and you then go on the DVSA website and see a test you would not be able to book it creating more waiting time.

This is increasing waiting times for everyone on a daily basis as I write this blog waiting times in Leeds we are roughly 6 months waiting time. All driving instructors as well as you  want the waiting times  down by a lot. You as the people who want to pass your driving tests along with driving instructors can reduce these times. How you Ask.

The solution

So when you pass your theory whether you are learning with an driving instructor,  a friend or  family member if you book tour test. Do not then go on these apps to get an earlier test. First of all get your self nearer to test standards and while you are doing this go on the DVSA website  and check for cancelations. This costs nothing but what it will do over time is reduce waiting times for driving test. We all want to pass our driving tests quickly but think is quickly safe will you stay safe as you like to get things done.

Covid is coming up to nearly 4 years ago when this problem started and it should have been sorted if it wasn’t for the apps.

There is also people booking tests that do not turn up for their driving test making people including driving examiners more frustrated as that test could have been taken by someone who was ready for the driving test.
