Hi, iv been learning to drive. Iv passed my theory and today my instructor told me i can book my practical test. Iv gone to the direct.gov web site to book and in putted all my info but a message flashes up that there is a problem with my driver No. Any ideas why this could be? I booked my theory with no problem so cant understand it.
Thanks in advance

    Could be any number of things.

    If you mis-selected an option and tried to book a different category of test by mistake, e.g. motorbike or lorry instead of car, the system will flag up an error as you won't have passed the correct theory test.

    Check you clicked the category B option.
