Luke Littler has officially passed his driving theory test after multiple failed attempts.
‘The Nuke’ had previously failed his car theory six times, but finally passed at the seventh time of asking.
Luke Littler Passes Driving Theory Test
Luke Littler may be one of the best sportsmen in the world, but one thing he has struggled with is his driving theory test.
The 18-year-old has been trying to pass is car theory for several months now, but was faced with multiple failed attempts, much to his frustration.
Although UK betting sites favour Littler in every single darts event he plays in, this certainly wouldn’t be the case if there were odds on the Englishman passing his driving theory test.
However, that has changed now. At the seventh attempt, Littler has finally passed his driving theory test.
‘The Nuke’ scored 43 out of 50 in the multiple choice section of the test, whilst excelling in the hazard perception section where he scored 63 out of 75.
Now, Littler can finally focus on passing his actual driving test and getting out on the roads by himself.
In a post written on his Instagram story, Littler wrote: “We will have a look, of course we will have a look.”
The most popular darts player in the world then added two dancing emojis, indication his celebratory feelings.
Luke you require: a practical driving test 🎯

Seventh Time Lucky – Littler Eventually Passes Driving Test
After passing his driving theory test at the seventh time of asking, Luke Littler can now focus on passing his practical driving test whenever he is ready.
The 18-year-old has revealed he already has a car and has been practicing, but can now take it to the next level and attempt to become a fully legal driver.
With Littler travelling all around the world on a regular basis, he mightn’t get a chance to do lots of practice out on the roads. However, ‘The Nuke’ has revealed he is keen to pass his driving test, just so he can get it done and dusted.
Littler quashed retirement rumours with EAFC26 Xbox launch earlier today, meaning he might have less time practicing on the roads in the coming weeks and months.
After passing your driving theory test, you have two years to pass the practical driving exam. This means Littler has until September 2027 to pass his practical driving exam.
Between darts and gaming, ‘The Nuke’ might not have a lot of time to get out on the roads and practice. He may have to chance his priorities for the next few months and focus fully on passing his driving test.
When Is Luke Littler Next In Darts Action?
Luke Littler is next in action in Budapest this weekend, where he is the marquee name in the Hungarian Darts Trophy field.
‘The Nuke’ is yet to win the Hungarian Darts Trophy, so heads to Budapest this week in an attempt to add yet another PDC trophy to his ever-growing cabinet.
This will actually be Littler’s first time playing at the Hungarian Darts Trophy. Michael van Gerwen won the event 12 months ago, with world number one Luke Humphries triumphing back in 2023.
If Littler is to come out on top this weekend in Budapest, he will have to bring his A-game. Just like he did for his seventh driving theory test.
