The Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) publishes monthly practical driving test waiting time data on GOV.UK. This includes the average (median) waiting time between booking and taking the test in weeks.

Information on average waiting times since January 2019 is available in table DRT121G, Car driving test waiting times and availability by country and region, and information on waiting times at individual driving test centres is available in table DRT122F, Car driving test waiting times and availability by driving test centre.
