THE DRIVING TEST IN Tottenham
The driving test from Tottenham will feature predominately urban driving, starting off from a residential area – relatively quiet streets ideal for test manoeuvres and the emergency stop procedure.
Further outside of the test centre, roads become busier with multi-lane roundabouts, busy junctions and crossroads. Based on the test centre location, the 40 minute driving test is likely to include dual carriageway sections such as the A10 or the North Circular. Around 20 minutes of independent driving will also be included in the test.
Though knowing each and every section of the Tottenham driving test routes isn’t necessary, examiners choose specific roads and routes to test candidates to the highest level. Sections of these routes are often challenging, so choosing a good driving instructor who knows the difficult areas may prove beneficial.

Just wanted to say I passed, was out under a lot of pressure, robust cold approach told not to talk unless I’m spoken too, just follow the road signs it’s a test not a boarding school. Make sure you go in with confidence and practice. I’m a good driver, tottenham examiners know ur nervous and set you up to fail.
With everything that’s going on in the world today it takes some of us a lot of courage to even get to the stage of booking a test let alone actually not being able to sleep all night because you suffer from anxiety due to nerves, I would highly recommend that if any examiners read the reviews if they could kindly take this into consideration before giving students a clinical approach before a test, some of us have social anxiety & other conditions that aren’t always Visible, I understand you have a job to do by all means we all want to be safe on the road, it just wouldn’t kill you to give a kind and calm approach, yes some of us want a car for the sake of going out but there are others who actually need to use this form of transport to get essentials like medication for family or take a relative to hospital for appointments that are high risk, the fact that we have anxiety over being around anyone out of our own household in itself can tip a person over. Please be more aware of mental health when approaching students. Thank you! Good luck to anyone taking tests, stay safe.
Don’t even wanna sound like a Sore loser but this was my experience, I Had a man called Patrick who was pushy to start the exam early when I first got to the car park even though I was early, failed me for 3 majors, mirrors which I was religiously looking at, saying I was in the right lane at traffic lights going straight not causing any hazards or anyone to slow down, when I was in the left? I don’t understand why he lied?! Driving too slow 25? around a bend on a 30 narrow road outside a school and petrol station!! I didn’t cause any hazards or slow any cars down, Someone work this out. Lol. parallel parking up hill secured the car which was fine, he told me to carry out a emergency stop, didn’t even give me a chance to even come out of my parking position from up hill parallel parking and told me to emergency stop straight away, the car obviously went down hill as soon as it started moving he then said I accelerated ? He had me out to fail from the start, seems like he just wanted the shift to be over to go home, LOL I don’t understand, prob won’t take my test in Tottenham again. Honestly starting to think they can only pass a certain amount of ppl a day after he lied about me being in the right lane. For anyone wondering.. my route was around Tottenham back roads, Lordship lane, was my first test in Tottenham. Good luck to anyone if you get Patrick LOL refuse if you can.
Had my fist attempt at 11:11am Wed with with examiner NJ. He is very good, gave me clear directions. Did bay parking in the beginning, I did it perfectly. The test route was manic tho. There was an arguement between two drivers on the White hart line turning left outside of the test centre, all cars are blocked. We had to ignore the Sat Nav and went straight ahead. Made a dangerous fault joining A406 from Bull ln. It was very busy and I waited for a while, the car was signal left on my right so I thought he was taking the exit out and I was okay to go. But he cancelled the signal and my examiner braked for me. He told me after the test that he also thought the car was taking the exit but I should have did a final check to the left before I join. Then there are a lot of meetings on the road (It's very busy during my test), at some point I was giving way to oncoming traffic and had to squize between two parked cars. My car was too closed to the front one when I was moving off, it was okay for me to move off tho and he didn't do anythong. It still counted as a serious fault..
Well, well, today is not my day. I will do better next time.
Third time lucky I finally passed with 3 minors. Had my test yesterday with Patrick and he was so relaxed which had helped a lot with my driving. Even before my test I was greeted by other examiners, I felt welcomed. Never had this treatment before as the last two I went to Wood Green they seem miserable and unbothered. Good Luck to everyone and just remain calm.
