    No you can just give it a go at any time one you pass the theory test. You just need a vehicle and a means of getting to the test centre, so someone who’s had a licence for 4+years sat in the car too and L plates affixed.

    But they are pretty stringent with how you drive. So no unnecessary hesitation, driving economically, and otherwise doing things “by the book”. You get get marked down with minor faults (such as stalling the vehicle or touching the kerb) which are fine, but get 15 and it’s an instant fail. Likewise with a single major (like running a red light or failing to stop at a Stop sign) it’s a fail.
