Eligibility, Application and English Requirements
Place SERU within the wider PHV driver application, including identity, right-to-work, driving-licence, character, medical and English-language checks.
Prepare from handbook duty to safe decision
Start with the current TfL instructions, learn each handbook responsibility in context and practise reading precise facts without inventing live assessment parameters.
Core concepts
Concept 1
driver eligibility
Exam cue: Treat SERU as one licensing component, not the whole PHV driver application.
Concept 2
application evidence
Exam cue: Keep the SERU reading-and-writing outcome separate from TfL's speaking-and-listening assessment.
Concept 3
SERU reading and writing
Concept 4
separate speaking and listening

Confusing the topographical or speaking-and-listening assessments with SERU.
