Series 6: 3. Driving Test Cheats



The Defenders catch a man helping people cheat their driving test. He’s captured on CCTV at several driving test centres around the country, each time pretending to be a different learner driver and sitting the theory test for them. A Wolverhampton driving instructor says that anyone who cheats their way through their driving test in this way is putting themselves and other road users in danger.
