Show Me, Tell Me
Vehicle Safety Questions
You’ll be asked 2 vehicle safety questions during your car driving test.
The examiner will ask you one:
​
-
‘Tell me’ question (where you explain how you’d carry out a safety task) at the start of your test, before you start driving
-
‘Show me’ question (where you show how you’d carry out a safety task) while you’re driving
You’ll get one driving fault (sometimes called a ‘minor’) if you get one or both questions wrong.
​
You’ll fail your driving test if your driving is dangerous or potentially dangerous while you answer the ‘show me’ question.
