Answer 1

He should have known what class of vehicle he was taking the test for - a, being a motorcycle, and b, a car.

He would also have had the licence when he did the theory test, so did he do a bike theory and then try to do a car test?

So, did he apply for a 'b' licence and then not check it on receipt, if so, its his fault.

Has he been taking car lessons with a school or private tutor and no one checked his licence?

I've even had instances in the past when candidates have turned up with someone elses licence, which is a bit unfortunate as the police then get involved.

He's just going to have to go through the grinder again and take the loss as his own fault.

Shouldn't take too long to get a new test date though.
