New rules have come into force this week in a bid to protect driving instructors during lessons.
As of January 25, examiners will begin to wear body cameras to tackle the issue of abuse which is said to be increasing, according to the DVSA (Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency).
In total, there have been 1,702 "overall assaults or abuse incidents at driver and rider tests by financial year". The number of physical assaults is smaller however.
