You may already be aware that independent driving is being added to the driving test from this
October and that, to allow for the necessary time for this, you will now be asked to carry out just
one of the 4 reversing manoeuvres. You can read more about the changes to the driving test
on the DSA website (the link will open in a new window).
At last! Common sense reigns and people can go about their daily lives without fear of the
wheel clamper when on private land! From the nurse trying to visit her patients to the workman
trying to fit a new kitchen for a client, the clamper will no longer be the stuff of their
nightmares. Obviously, drivers need to use their common sense and make sure that where they
choose to park is safe, legal and convenient for others, eg, that they don't block someone else's
driveway or obstruct traffic by thoughtless parking. You can read more about this on the
Directgov website.
