How does the driving test cancellation work in 4 steps?
1. Step One
A driving test cancellation happens when a previously booked time becomes vacant because of a student cancelling or postponing their test. Usually happens when the instructor is unavailable, the student is ill, or feels unprepared for the test.
2. Step Two
New earlier test dates may become available randomly as well. Due to increased examiner availability and other factors, test centres can offer batches of new test dates.
3. Step Three
When a student cancels their test or a testing centre publishes new dates, you can reschedule your currently booked test to any of these days.
4. Step Four
Here Test Hunter assists you in getting a cancellation and passing earlier. We notify and schedule you for one of these open tests, all you need to do is have an existing test booked.
