       The process of booking a practical driving test in the UK is mad. New slots are released at 6 am on Monday. You join a queue on the website, then get through to book. Pick a date and location, then get presented with either none or some options, so repeat with another date/location. Pick one, and it's gone by the time you click it. Eventually, you have to book a test in a faraway place with slots and fewer bots and people. Then, hope for a nearby cancellation.

       @popey In South Australia there is a written test that you have book a time for but you can just go to the government office and they work out a time for you. For the actual driving test driving schools can be certified with the government to perform the tests independently.
