  • I passed my test a year ago. I have had a few bans before I passes my test. I was told I had to take an extended test but when I applied for my provisional I had no endorsements on it. So I took a normal test and passed for the past year I have held a full licence and been driving. I have since received a letter off the dvla saying I need to send my licence back an I have to take an extended test. As I need my car for work can anybody give me some advice

    take an extended test INSTEAD of cheating the system , the fact that the endorsements disappeared did not alter the magistrates opinion of your driving

    Book the extended test.

    You surely aren't worried about whether you'll it or not, are you?
