Chelmsford Driving Test Centre

Chelmsford Driving Test Centre is located in and around busy town roads. Required for the test will be a high knowledge of traffic systems such as roundabouts of all types from large multi-lane to small mini roundabouts, crossroads, junctions and a possibility of one-way-systems.



A good understanding of test routes close to and nearby the test centre will be of benefit. Busy ‘A’ roads such as the A138 and the A12 dual carriageway are likely where good judgement of oncoming traffic speed is important before joining. Quiet residential roads that are narrow, have tight bends are likely. Oncoming vehicles can be hazardous on such roads.

See passing parked cars for further help. One of the possible four driving test manoeuvres shall be requested, independent driving and a 1-in-3 chance of the emergency stop being requested.

The driving test in Chelmsford includes many challenging roads, including country roads. The test is designed to take you over as many varied roads as possible to establish to the driving examiner you are a competent and safe driver. The Chelmsford driving test routes will enable you to gain a better understanding of the various road types that are likely. Focusing on the areas that are most difficult will be most beneficial.
