harder tests- not necessarily better. A test that isn't entirely based on luck/ the examiner on the day would be better. The problems talked about with the new test are that the test centers are so few and far between. If you live 100 miles from one its one hell of a journey for an unlicensed person to have to make. Whilst it sounds like the standard expected is being raised, realistically telling people to make an emergency avoidance of an object they already know is there is pointless. Teaching drivers traffic awareness and further training is what is needed (if anything is). Removing the unroadworthy cars and unlicensed drivers would be a better place to start.
