This is interesting. DVSA has announced that it will be trialling carrying out the reverse bay park exercise in non-DVSA car parks<\/a> during February and March 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The trials will be conducted in Stafford, Newcastle-under-Lyme, Barnsley, Wakefield, Chester, Northwich, Upton, Wallasey, St Helens, Wolverhampton, Gillingham, Bishopbriggs, Gateshead, Durham, and Abergavenny.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m all for it – especially if it stops those twats who think they\u2019re good ADIs, and yet who see the test centre car park as some magical place that their little darlings must practice in at all costs. Even when tests are coming and going, and when they have expressly been asked not to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first time any<\/strong> of my pupils get to bay park in the test centre car park is on the day of their test. Once when we turn up, and perhaps a second go if they get that manoeuvre once their test commences. The rest of the time I use business and retail parks, or supermarket car parks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The sooner DVSA implements this fully, the better. But I bet you some instructors will be opposed to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
