Waiting times
It is nice to know that Wales has the edge over England with regards to some waiting lists. If you want to take your driving test in London then you must wait between 17 and 20 weeks, whereas in Swansea and Wrexham the wait is only 7 weeks, 8 weeks if you are in Cardiff. Having driven in London I am not entirely sure if all the additional practice that their drivers get in before taking the test does them any good. However, for those English drivers crossing the border to take their test in Wales, I have one word of advice - do not think you can fit in an NHS appointment whilst you are here! When it comes to your health you will definitely be quicker getting treatment in England.
