THE DRIVING TEST IN Burgess Hill
Burgess Hill Driving Test Centre is situated on the outskirts of a busy town. Both busy urban roads and rural roads often feature on the test routes. Rural roads are challenging and are likely on the test (see country road driving). These roads may be high speed, narrow and have sharp bends.
Other hazardous conditions are roundabouts, junctions and crossroads. Primary route ‘A’ roads will feature on the driving test including the A273 and A2300. These high speed roads require a good understanding of approaching traffic speed before joining.

Heard a lot of praise about this test centre, so booked my driving test with them.. I should've read reviews before about examiners here.. I'd definitely ask my instructor stay in the car with me during the test and install the camera outside the car (yes it's legal).
To all deeply unhappy examiners at Burgess Hill: It's not candidates fault, karma is a b.... only if you are.
I had a test today (26/05/23) at burgess hill and I PASSED! I had the absolute best experiences after two fails. With only one minor - which I sadly got for poor observations at the roundabout just before turning left at the premier inn, into the test centre. My examiner was Sam who is so kind and chatty, making me feel completely at ease and comfortable. He kept reassuring me throughout the test, telling me to have confidence in myself and that he had confidence in me. Such a relief to finally pass, especially when there is so much backlog. Good luck to everyone taking their tests at Burgess Hill, I do hope you get Sam as your examiner! 🙂
i just want to say if you are lucky enough to get sam you will have a lovely time. my first test at burgess hill was a fail becuase of a single major with a very bland instructor. But my second driving test with sam went so great and all i can say is that he was very supportive and extreamly calming and proffesional. THANK YOU SAM i passed!
Really impressed with how the test was conducted. Had an instructor named Sam who was very professional in how he carried out the test and still made sure that I felt at ease. He knew exactly when to create some conversation and was excellent at also remaining quiet whilst I focused on roundabouts and junctions. Defo recommend.
Had my test at this centre yesterday with a lady called Linda. She asked me to unlock the car and open both front doors for her. We didnt understand if she was taking photos but she took her time inspecting the car, while doing that she told me to stand by the driver's door. She told me to go inside and prepare to move off after explained I would follow the sat nav and then have some independent driving time. I had to ask her then to do me a safety question as she was forgetting and rushing me to move away. After getting the answer correctly I moved off following the sat nav directions, first a left turn followed by a right turn into a side road. After this she told me to park on the left behind a car, it was a uphill road. I had a hard time moving off since the car was in an angle behind the other car, it was a hill, and there was a lot of traffic not giving me way. After I finally moved off I gained some speed and put my 2nd gear. At the end of the test she told me I change gears too early and that I am too slow and hesitant. She made me park again on the left and removed the sat nav device telling me I would be following her directions from then, I thought this was weird as the test just started. She directed me into a road with cars parked on both sides, I moved inside to give way to some traffic and after checking mirrors moved away. A fast speed jeep didnt seem to see me in the road and I had to a sudden stop, she grabbed the handbrake and said I wasnt quick enough. In this situation I was confused as I was in the middle of the road and the other car had obstructions too on his side of the road, so if he had anticipated me he would have to have moved inside and let me pass??
She directed me back to the test centre and told me to forward park into the disable yellow bay, asked if I wanted my instructor to hear feedback and I called her.
Very summary she say i change gears to early and didnt stop sudden enough for the other car, decision that I dont agree. Proceeded to say the car was dirty and if we appeared again with the car like that she would refuse me. The car wasnt dirty, it had been cleaned weeks before and because of rain and winter is normal the carpets are a little bit dusty, also a bit of the passenger door had some dry dirt in the part where the door closes, that we tried to clean before, because of rain and muddy roads is hard to not get the car a bit dirty, only if we remove our shoes everytime we enter the car??
We are very annoyed by this unfair treatment, I truly believe since she saw the car had intentions to find something to fail me on.
If you can avoid this place.
