Portsmouth Driving Test Centre
The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency is responsible for all driver testing in the UK.
Due to the failure of the DVSA to cope with demand driving test appointments are rarely available at Portsmouth driving test centre.
Driving test appointments can be booked online at www.gov.uk/book-driving-test from 6am – 11.40pm every day.

If there are no suitable tests available MyDrivingInstructor.co.uk will do one of the following
- Book an available driving test appointment and suggest an alternative course start date for your approval
- Book a test at any test centre with available appointments. We will then look for a more suitable cancellation appointment at a test centre near you for, or as near as possible to, the end of your course.
- MyDrivingInstructor.co.uk may set up an automated cancellation search on your behalf with a third party provider providing both you and your instructor with full access details
- Where a test has not been arranged for the last afternoon of the course the course will commence on the date agreed. All or part of the last day may be held in reserve for the test, so you are in a good position to take advantage of any short notice cancellations.
