Located on the outskirts of York, the driving test from York Driving Test Centre will involve many varied road types. Rural country roads are often featured as are high speed ‘A’ roads such as the A1237 dual carriageway. In-town driving will involve many road systems including junctions, roundabouts and crossroads.

Examiners also take you around residential streets. These areas are typically used to assess passing distances, such as passing parked cars (often with oncoming vehicles approaching) and passing cyclists.

The driving test will incorporate one test manoeuvre along with the emergency stop procedure having a 1-in-3 possibility of being requested. Independent driving will take approximately 10 minutes of the driving test.

Many of the roads taken during the driving test from York Driving Test Centre are difficult and challenging. They are designed by the DVSA examiners at the actual test centre to ensure you are capable and safe on all road types.

Had my test with Mark the other day. He was a nice bloke and gave me some good constructive feedback at the end!

Had my second driving test and was quite nervous after my first examiner made me feel quite uncomfortable. However, mark made me feel at ease and clarified all the questions that I had. Fortunately I passed my test today and I put it down to the calm manner of my examiner.
