Milestones

We urge the Government to change the driving theory test to be available in different languages other than English. Whilst signs maybe understood no matter your language, we believe people may have problems with reading English during the theory test in a timed environment.

Some people have difficulty reading English in a timed environment, and we believe the Government should instruct the DVLA to change the test so that it is available in different languages.
