New Driving Test in France

The Centre, Poitou-Charentes, Pays-de-la-Loire and Haute-Normandie regions will start offering the new test from this morning. It will be extended to the other regions of France in small groups between now and May 3.

The 35-minute practical test is designed to give examiners more freedom to decide on a driver's competence, with less emphasis on simply totting up errors.

As well as deducting marks for mistakes, examiners can add marks if the driver is courteous behind the wheel and drives in a fuel-efficient way. Candidates will need to score 20 out of 30 to pass.
