Wow, although it was being talked about, I honestly thought they would just stiff all the learners and bring in a naff system for a while.

[pumilio]

Big news! Hopefully my significant other gets her licence sooner now...!

[MonkeyKnuckle]

Quickly people book your tests!!

[Guest]

Well we didn't think that would happen

[Guest]

I didn't think that would happen either. The Wife is pleased though.

[craig]

bet they will be a mad rush of poeple booking tests now

[Ratser]

Yip I think I will book 3 tomorrow, just in case you understand.

[Guest]

Some people had said the new one would be harder but I don't think there would be much difference. It's just more expensive and further away so I'd have to book ages in advance! At least now I can do a test on roads that I know.

OH MY GOD!

I don't often exclaim such cheesey american crud, but I am SO SO SO Happy. I don't BELEIVE it. I simply, cannot, beleive it, that's so fantasticly brilliantly wonderful, i'm going to phone up tomrorow a book me a good old fashioned test.

That's absolutely brilliant.

I love this forum, if it weren't for here i'd never have bothered to check and might never have found out.

[jabcrosshook]

Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

I'm going to get my test done ASAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Fozzie]

Its brilliant, the new one was only harder because it has to be carried out over an hour while the current one is only 30 minutes long...

Good to see that people will have an easier time getting their license.

I'm actually buzzing with excitment. I want to go and do it right now.

I'm not going to sleep now, i'll just be thinking about parked car situations.

God Bless the DSA and their incompitence.

[nikobe]

Really pleased for you Bill! I'm really pleased too as now it looks like I might be able to take the current test too! I wouldn't have minded taking the new one I don't think, but the price is more attractive on the current one.

[FRHornet]

Thank f*** for that! My re-test isnt going to be a complete nightmare now.

YEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

:D :D 8-) 8-)

[yuri]

Thanks for that! What a grrreat news!

Has anyone been able to book at the old test centres? Portsmouth is still unavailable... they did not take bookings for October so I guess they just have not adapted to the change yet. Hope the examiners have not quit their jobs !

[Korben]

This has to be the happiest thread ever!!!!

[Gin]

Thank GOD!

I only passed my Theory recently.. was worried all places were booked!

Now hoping to do it with skittles ^_^

Awsome News! Well Received!

I have to call my training centre next week as they have applied for a whole load of new block bookings.

Should get one for the beginning of next month though.

They also said they had been inundated with folk wanting tests and DAS, unsurprisingly.

And I got through at 9.10 this morning. They opened at 9.

This is the second time in tonights forum browsing where I've wanted an emoticon for the term 'WOO HOO!'.

I have my test on the 23rd, and this news takes a lot of pressure off. If I do fail, the consequences aren't SO disastrous. This is awesome news!

agreed brings a smile to your face!!

I don't know what all the fuss is about tbh, when I talked to the guy about doing the DAS course he told me the new test might even work out easier because all the hard bits are done off road. He was at the new site and said it was'nt difficult for anyone who has been trained properly, the only bit you have to watch out for is making sure you get up to the correct speed in time because you only get two shots at it but apart from that the rest is just basic CBT stuff. Still I am happy because I can do it at my local test centre again.
