New DVSA driving test rules introduced in May and June 2026 will significantly impact learners in West London, where demand is already high. From 12 May, only the learner can manage their test booking—meaning instructors or third-party services can no longer book or change appointments. Then from 9 June, test location changes will be restricted to the three nearest centres, limiting the ability to book elsewhere and switch later.
