📘 About the Theory Test Bus (PCV)

The Theory Test Bus is essential for anyone applying to drive minibuses, buses, or coaches professionally. The test consists of a multiple-choice module, which must be passed before booking your practical PCV test.

While the online practice focuses on multiple-choice questions, it is useful to have a basic understanding of hazard perception, as you may encounter such scenarios in practical exams.

You can take the test at any time, but once passed, your theory certificate is valid for 2 years. During this period, you must complete the practical test, or the theory result will become invalid.
