Darts sensation Luke Littler is rejoicing after successfully passing his driving test. The world champion aced his practical test on the first try, but conquering the theory exam proved to be a challenging feat.
After facing six failed attempts, the 18-year-old finally clinched a passing grade on his theory test. Now officially licensed to drive, Littler’s accomplishment was proudly shared by Colin Price Driving School on social media, with the darts prodigy reposting the announcement.
The caption accompanying Littler’s driving test success post read, “Congratulations to Luke Littler on passing his driving test today at Warrington on his first attempt with ZERO driving faults.” The achievement was hailed as remarkable, urging Littler to savor the joy of owning a car.
During the summer, Littler candidly disclosed his struggles with the theory test, showcasing his near-pass scores. Despite a close call in September where he narrowly scraped by the multiple-choice segment, he left nothing to chance during the practical assessment.
Having claimed the world title in January 2025, Littler had expressed his desire to invest some of the prize money into a new car. However, realizing the urgency to obtain his license promptly, he embarked on the journey to fulfill this personal milestone.
Sharing his aspirations for a Mercedes A-Class, Littler humorously acknowledged his evolving taste in cars as his success propelled him to new heights. Determined to complete his driving lessons before hitting his twenties, he viewed it as a self-gift to mark the occasion.
Amidst gearing up for the upcoming PDC World Championship defense in December, Littler has already secured his spot in the Players Championship Finals. Despite a setback in the European Championship, he remains focused on his title defense journey, facing formidable opponents along the way.
As a prominent figure qualifying for the World Championship through merit, Littler and fellow competitors are set to ignite the Alexandra Palace stage starting December 11. Noteworthy changes in the tournament format ensure a competitive edge, with Littler poised to make his mark among the elite contenders.
