THE DRIVING TEST IN Peterborough

Situated on the surrounding city of Peterborough, Peterborough Driving Test Centre will include many varied road types during the driving test. Included will be rural country driving and high speed dual carriageways such as the A1139.

Rural roads often represent a difficulty to test candidates due to the high National Limit speeds combined with the often harsh corners found on rural roads. The country road driving tutorial offers advice on how to best use an appropriate speed for these roads.


Busy town driving will include such traffic systems as roundabouts and mini roundabouts, crossroads and junctions. A high knowledge of all such roads and systems is essential. Incorporated on the test will be one test manoeuvre of the possible four (the choice is the examiners) and a 1-in-3 possibility of the emergency stop procedure being requested. The examiner will request approximately 10 minutes of driving test time for the independent driving.




Test centre routes are designed by the examiners who conduct practical tests at their local test centre. Certain areas of the driving test routes in Peterborough can be challenging such as busy roundabouts and junctions. A further understanding of the various roads that are taken during the driving test from Peterborough Driving Test Centre can be obtained by viewing the driving test routes section.

From the moment I entered the car I was met with a cold, unempathetic and intimidating approach from my examiner. As someone who seriously struggles with driving test anxiety (this was not my first test) I immediately felt uneasy. There was no polite conversation (not even so much as I 'how are you doing today?'). I acknowledge I stalled but I truly believe the huffing and puffing and overall emotionally inappropriate attitude of my examiner aided to my panic after the stall and thus my failure. It it also worth mentioning this was no more than 2 minutes into the test and due to covid, I was told to turn around straight away. The driving test is now just an examiner looking for the first fault they can get you for and ending the test; it is not even an overall assessment of one's driving. After failing my test so early on I was obviously very distressed and upset, my examiner had no attempt to offer support or comfort and I was met with a blank, unempathetic and bored gaze. As I had to drive back battling tears, I was hardly in the right mind set to carry on driving, even just a short distance, and my examiner made no attempt to make it any easier for me. This test centre needs to review its examiners and I will not be recommending it to anyone else nor going back.. An examiner has a duty of care to give their students, who are paying for a professional service after all, and should not leave the place feeling humiliated and distraught. I can only hope I have conveyed my extreme dissatisfaction with this test centre.

My daughter turned up for her test on 19.03.2020 to find the centre closed, no contact was made to inform her or her driving instructor that they were closed. Your website does not indicate the test centre is closed either. This is a very stressful event in anyone's life, i understand if you have been forced to close however please have the decency to let people know.

I had my second standards check today with Steve Beach and I must say he is a top examiner in my eyes, on my first standards check, again I had Steve, although I failed I was given the best feedback I could have possibly ask for he spent 15 to 20 mins with me explaining where I went wrong and what needs to be done to fix it, I really feel he has made me into a better instructor just by listening to his feedback alone, I passed at second attempt with him and again he still gave me some great feedback and tips. Top man thanks Steve.
