Interim test
In the third phase of your driving lessons, you will do a Interm test. This test is essentially a form of practical exam at the CBR. This test with an examiner provides a good indication of whether you are ready to take the driving test. You will know for yourself if you are driving well enough or if you still need a few more lessons. The detailed feedback afterward allows you to practice and repeat the critical points in your final driving lessons.
What does an interim test look like?
During an interim test, all exam components are discussed that you can also expect in the regular practical exam. In terms of length, an intermediate test lasts just as long as a normal driving test. Because you already know how the actual driving test is taken with this test, you are often less nervous and you have a higher chance of passing. The test is not mandatory, but we as a driving school strongly recommend it as you will be optimally prepared for your exam.
Exemption from special maneuvers for the driving exam
If you successfully perform the key special maneuvers during the interim test, you will receive an exemption for them during your driving exam. The exemption is valid for one exam. This may include a parking maneuver or a turning maneuver. In the regular practical exam, you will not have to perform these tasks again, including the control questions, provided you have completed them successfully.
The benefits of an interim test
- You know how a real practical exam is taken
 - You immediately know how far you have progressed with your driver training
 - You have more than 20% chance of passing at once
 - You experience how you perform under pressure
 - Less chance of making mistakes during the practical exam
 - Exemption option for special maneuvers during the driving exam
 - Know what you need to practice extra on and what you can already do
 

Get ready for the practical exam
By taking the interim test you feel a lot more confident for the actual practical exam. The CBR itself advises to take the test when you have completed about 70 percent of your driver training. Afterwards, we can go through the advice form that you receive and put the final dots on the 'i', so that we can apply for your real driving test shortly afterwards.
