Driving tests

The number of car practical driving tests taken rose to by 3.6 per cent from 1.59 million in 2009/10 to 1.65 million in 2010/11. Roughly 51 to 54 per cent of the tests each year were taken by males.
The overall pass rate has remained reasonably static at about 42 to 46 per cent overall, though in most years males had about a 7 percentage point higher success rate than females.

So if driving tests taken has risen, is that because the economy has improved?
