Darts sensation Luke Littler has finally passed his driving test, achieving a perfect score on his first practical attempt after struggling through six theory exam failures. The 18-year-old world champion was congratulated by Colin Price Driving School on social media, noting he passed with zero faults at Warrington.
Littler's path to a driving licence was far from smooth. He failed his theory test six times, narrowly missing the pass mark on his fifth attempt with scores of 44 on hazard perception and 41 on multiple choice. He eventually passed in September, scoring exactly 43 out of 50 on the multiple-choice section, while clearing the hazard perception threshold comfortably.
The teenager, who won the PDC World Championship in January 2025, had previously spoken about using his prize money to buy a Mercedes A-Class. "I've always loved a Mercedes A-Class," he said. "Just a small car. I'm going to have to do my lessons before I get into my twenties when it'll be too late."
Littler's driving success comes as he prepares to defend his world title at Alexandra Palace from December 11. The tournament features a format change, meaning the 32 seeds, including Littler, no longer receive a first-round bye. He will begin his Players Championship Finals campaign against Sweden's Jeffrey De Graaf.
