<p>As at 8 July 2022, there are 22 people waiting to take a category F (tractor) driving
test in the Scottish Borders.</p><p> </p><p>To accommodate the tractor testing manoeuvres,
the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency (DVSA) conducts category F tests at the closest,
suitable location to the candidate’s home address. The DVSA allocates the most suitable
examiner to do this. As the test does not take place at a DVSA test centre, the examiner
needs time to travel to and from the meeting point for the test as well as the time
to conduct the test itself.</p><p> </p><p>The DVSA does not calculate an average waiting
time for the category F test as the very low test demand and non-standard booking
procedure for tractor tests could distort the waiting time, which would not be representative.</p>
