As soon as a cancellation occurs, driving test slots that were previously booked for a later date become available.
If this happened to you, try to relax and don't beat yourself up about it too much. Continue to revise as much as possible leading up to the resit, and build your confidence with official style mock tests and consistent passes, like what is found in our Driving Theory Test 4 in 1 App.
Contact the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency ( DVSA ) to get help cancelling your theory test appointment. To cancel your theory test by phone or email, you'll need to give your: full name (as it appears on your driving licence) date of birth.
Try to check as frequently as you can for cancellations as they're always snatched up quickly. Simply search, refresh and try again until you find something. The more time you have to look for a test, the better your chances will be—cancellations sometimes crop up very early in the morning or very late in the evening.
