There is a greater than 60% risk of it being cancelled then...

my brother had the same problem last year when it snowed bad.
made me laugh as they had already cancelled it once, then had to cancel it again because of the snow.
even if theres only 1cm of it, it will get cancelled.

I bet if you walk into the Driving test office with a hunting knife you will get to take your test. Quid.

A colleague of mine was expecting his work driving test to be cancelled due to the weather (barely stopped snowing in 4 weeks now), but it's going ahead. Examiner said if you can drive in this, you can drive in normal weather which is fair point i suppose!

That's the way it should be! Not the other way around. If more folk were thrown in at the deep end with a good instructor, we'd have less accidents.

Personally I hope 3-4ft falls during the night so I can build a proper snow den.

Exactly, and to be fair, work's driving test is a little different to normal one anyway, much more risky!

Ok I would definitley have lost it and went hunting if that happened. That's taking the piss. Surely you got a rescheduled one quick enough/free?

Happened to me after nearly a 3 month wait, wasn't even any snow anywhere, there was a bit of frost in the test centre carpark and the sun was out everywhere else. I was fuming.

I imagine i there is a hint of ice they won't let you do it, if you lose control and crash it would probably be deemed as negligent behaviour.

They should cancel yours and use it as an opportunity to re-test all the clowns I've had to share a road with today.
