After losing your license are you do u do a refresher course or do u have 2 retake all your driving lessons?

Question

i am facing losing my license through no falult of my own

and just need to no do i need to take loads of lessons on the build up to resitting my test or can i just do a refresher course

Answer 1

I've served 16 months of an 18 month ban, just applied for my licence to be reinstated, and according to the DVLA  I do not have to re-take any test.

(I'm pretty sure an extended driving test has to be taken if banned for dangerous driving though)

So unless you've been ordered by the court to re-sit the test, you don't have to, It all depends on what the ban was for, and the judge/magistrate's view of the seriousness of the offence.

Answer 2

you dont need to take any lessons,just retake the test itself...

and thats only if your banned within 1-2 years of passing your test.....

if youve had your licence for a while,and were just banned for toting up you wont have to resit any tests just re aply for your licence back..

Answer 3

Not unless the court orders you to retake your test.

Except if you're within 2 years of passing your test, when 6 points revokes your licence and you have to go right back to provisional status, L plates, accompanying driver, the lot, until you pass your tests again.

Answer 4

You just do your Driving test over again. Believe me , ive been there done that & bought the t/shirt.

Answer 5

I think you have to take around 10 professional lessons then re-take your theory and practical.  You maybe able to find out on the DVLA website. Or by giving them a call.

Answer 6

You don't need to take any more driving lessons at all, however a few refresher lessons will help a lot, if only to try & get you out of driving habits that testers don't like. You will have to take both your practical & theory tests again so I'd brush up on them too. You can't do any of those until you are allowed to have a license again though.

Answer 7

If you lose it for 12mths you must resit a test, if less than 12 you just get your licence back. This is for uk.

Answer 8

If you lose your licence in the UK you must resit your theory and practical test .
