If you fail the driving skills test, how long must you wait before retaking it?

  1. 7 days

  2. 14 days

  3. 21 days

  4. 30 days

The correct answer is: 14 days

The requirement to wait 14 days before retaking the driving skills test is in place to ensure that individuals have adequate time to practice and improve their driving skills after an initial failure. This waiting period allows candidates to reflect on their performance during the test, identify areas needing improvement, and receive additional instruction or practice. It is designed to enhance safety on the roads by ensuring that only those who are adequately prepared and competent in their driving abilities are ultimately licensed. The other options, while varying in length, do not align with the standard waiting period established for retesting in many jurisdictions, which typically encourages a balanced amount of time for both reflection and practice.
