Good luck, but it seems likely to me. They cancelled mine last Wednesday because it was raining. Maybe it will clear up overnight?

My CBT was cut short cause of the rain, ended up doing the carpark work one morning and then going back a few days when the weather improved to finish it off! Was gutting as I had my bike sitting on my drive begging to be used!

Simple answer: Yes!

The DSA have a duty of care to you, their examiners and other road users so they will not go out in conditions that could jeopardise this. The tests are also supposed to be fair and taking you out to perform in 8" of standing water probably isn't

I agree that it might be cancelled, but consider it a load of rot, since deep water questions are in the theory, and the conditions aren't unusual for where and when you're riding.

Recall that I got my license by riding to the test centre in a blizzard, and like cock was I going to be fobbed off with "Ooh, but the conditions" after already demonstrating that I could deal with them. The examiner followed in his lah-de-dah car, that was fine with me.
