BRITAIN'S driving test backlog exceeds 600,000 for the first time, new statistics show.

Some 603,352 future practical driving tests were booked as of the end of April, according to analysis of Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) figures.

That is up from 521,190 a year ago.

Despite the growing demand, the number of tests conducted during the first four months of this year is 15 per cent lower than the same period in 2024.

There were 610,000 tests taken between January and April, down from 718,000 a year earlier.
