here's our transport correspondent caroline davies. sometimes, it takes a few attempts before things line up. but learner drivers have rarely had to wait this long to get a test. i've had my test cancelled i think eight times by this point, but i've kind of lost count. i live quite literally in the middle of nowhere with the nearest bus station being about a mile or two away. it's almost impossible to get around or go anywhere without asking someone else to give me a lift. the last car driving tests for non—key workers was before christmas. the delay has had an impact on instructors too, many of whom haven't been able to work. you've still got overheads to cover for the cars, you've got to pay for the cars and the insurances and all that sort of stuff. and also, it's been very frustrating for a lot of the pupils that you teach. effectively, it's three and a half, four months since they've last been in a car. and to have that break when you're a fairly inexperienced driver is quite difficult for a lot of them. but the wait is almost o
