THE DRIVING TEST IN Newcastle-under-Lyme
As the Newcastle-under-Lyme Driving Test Centre is situated around the outskirts of Stoke-on-Trent, the test will include a varied assortment of roads. Expected can be rural country driving and high speed ‘A’ roads such as the A500 dual carriageway.
Rural roads in particular can be hazardous and challenging due to higher speeds and sharp corners. See the country road driving tutorial for further information. In-town driving will include busy roads, roundabouts, crossroads and junctions.
Narrow residential streets are often used for test manoeuvre purposes and to test your ability for meeting oncoming vehicles within narrow lanes and streets. This often also involves passing parked cars. Expect a single manoeuvre with the emergency stop procedure having a 1-in-3 possibility of being requested. Test centre routes are designed by the examiners who conduct practical tests at their local test centre.
The routes are designed in such a way so to involve as many diverse roads and traffic systems as possible, often including very challenging parts. Gaining knowledge of the test routes provides valuable insight into the type of roads that will be taken during your test. Driving test routes may be available to view or a downloadable app for your mobile device in your area, including Newcastle-under-Lyme Driving Test Centre.

Had my second test with the instructor Karl. He was reassuring and helped keep me at ease whilst I was feeling nervous throughout and guided me through the minor faults I made during the test. I left feeling happy to have passed but also enlightened on the mistakes I made.
I passed my driving test on the second of January with Keith, it was my second attempt and I passed with just 1 minor, to say I was happy was a understatement, I suffer with anxiety and a driving test is a scary experience but Keith instantly made me feel relaxed and at ease, he made all his instructors very clear, and he was so nice and made me less anxious, thanks so much Keith ... I’m one happy lady 😃 before I took my test here I heard so many bad things about the I instructors at this test centre, honestly please done believe everything you hear, because both times my examiners were lovely!
that evil little old women needs to retire, she's not fit for purpose.
Passed second time with Ian. Lovely man and very chatty, which instantly puts you at ease. He explained everything very clearly and eliminated all confusion. Couldn’t have wished for a better examiner!
I passed my driving test today with Ian at Newcastle-under-Lyme test centre. I had a few nerves and I must say Ian was brilliant in keeping me at ease. He was professional and kind throughout.
