Study Hard as the Driving Theory Test is Getting Tougher Warns Swinton

(firmenpresse) - MANCHESTER, UNITED KINGDOM -- (Marketwire) -- 01/29/12 -- Swinton, the UK's leading retailer of , is warning learner drivers about the changes to the driving theory test.

The theory test will pose more of a challenge for learner drivers as they will not be able to study or memorise the answers from the official study material ahead of an exam.

The changes enforced will prevent candidates from learning the answers by heart therefore participants will have to revise each topic.

A recent survey showed that candidates who memorised the answers were less likely to fully understand the Highway Code. Results showed that 12% of drivers did not know the term of the 'blind spot', which is the area drivers are unable to see in the mirrors.

Swinton is advising learner drivers to always read the Highway Code in advance to any exam and ahead of driving lessons to keep them aware of the rules of the road.

Steve Chelton, Claims Manager at Swinton said, "The best way of gaining knowledge of how a road works is to take plenty of lessons and make observations. Learner drivers should not rely on DVLA revision material to pass the exam; they should study the Highway Code to further their understanding of driving and apply it when they are on the roads. By doing so they are always prepared for challenges that may occur whilst driving and will become safer drivers in the long run and thus reducing the chances of an accident and a claim on their policy."
