Sat Nav training to be made part of the UK driving test

Fri, 22/09/2017 - 10:50
News & Events
From December 4, 2017, the U.K.’s Driving and Vehicle Standards Agency is adding a satellite navigation section to its new driver test. In addition to this major change come other new tasks like parking in a public space, backing out of the space and rejoining traffic after pulling over. These new maneuvers will replace the three-point turn and reverse around a corner.
 
Sat Nav training to be made part of the UK driving test
Learner drivers will spend about 20 minutes being guided by a dashboard Sat Nav device, to allow the examiner to better assess the driver's ability to drive safely on high-risk roads. It is expected that the changes to the current test will help save lives, as it better reflects the changing behaviors of drivers, nearly half of whom have a sat nav and evaluation under test conditions will teach new drivers to better manage the distractions they can cause.
