THE DRIVING TEST IN Colchester

Rural roads will likely feature during the practical test. Such roads often represent a hazard to all drivers due to their high speeds and difficult bends. See the country road driving tutorial for further help. Other types of roads include ‘A’ roads including the A134 are likely to be taken from Colchester Driving Test Centre.

The testing examiner will be assessing your ability at a varied assortment of junctions, roundabouts and mini-roundabouts, crossroads and possibly one-way-systems. Out of the possible 4 manoeuvres, 1 will be requested along with a possibility of the emergency stop.

 


Most practical test reserve around 20 minutes for independent driving. By browsing the Colchester driving test routes section, you will gain a good understanding on the various road types and traffic systems that the examiner will take you on.

Test centre tips
If your driving test centre is located in a busy area, it may be of benefit to book your driving test in between the times of 10am and 4pm. This way you will miss out on rush hour traffic that can be problematic for learner drivers. Alternatively, some driving test centres offer test bookings on Saturdays. Driving test fees at the weekend are increased.

Time for a word supporting the examiners. Moan, moan, moan is all these reviews have to say. People don't fail the test for nothing. They fail for getting things wrong. Nobody likes to fail but if you don't drive to the required standard then you won't be successful. Most recent post for son failing test due to minimally steamed up window on passenger side is nonsense!!! You don't fail for that. You will fail for a seriously steamed up window for obvious safety reasons. In all likelihood that's what has happened. There aren't quotas! Pupils often think they haven't done anything wrong when they clearly have. If you fail you need to stop whining, pick yourself up and try again. In my experience (Name removed) is one Of the best examiners and very fair. If your son returns to Colchester test centre he will do well to get him again! Trust me!!
