The Eye Test

So the day has finally arrived, you’ve completed months and months of driving lessons, passed your Theory test with flying colours, and now it is time to take your Practical Test. There is just one small obstacle in your way…

The eye test.

This is a legal requirement that you must pass before even sitting in the car you will take your test in. You will be required to read the number plate from a vehicle from 20 feet away. If you need to wear glasses or contact lenses to improve your vision it is highly recommended that you wear these to pass the eye test, and you will also be required to wear these throughout your test.

This may sound daunting to some, but it is necessary to ensure that examiners aren’t putting someone behind the wheel who may not even be able to see past the end of the bonnet!

If you have poor eyesight you may be worrying right about now – after all, failing the eye test means that you won’t be able to sit the test. But fear not, Britannia is here to help – take our FREE Eye Test Simulator here now!
