Petition UK practical driving test time to be reduced.

40 minutes for a driving test is a long time to sit in a car with an examiner looking at you throughout the test. Many people fail their test not because their bad drivers but because their nervous and sweaty.

Sitting in an exam is hard as it is, but sitting one in a car with an examiner next to guy watching at everything you do is another thing. I think the driving test time should be reduced to at least 20-30 minutes.

Many people fail their test because their nervous and don't know what the examiner is writing, it puts the learner under a lot of stress and end up failing their tests. £62 is a lot of money to spend every time you fail and have to rebook a test. Reducing the time will be good.
