THE DRIVING TEST IN Reading

A varied amount of road types will be taken during the driving test from Reading Driving Test Centre. Rural roads are often taken as part of the test routes due to the test centre location being close to them. These road types are often difficult due to the often high speeds and sharp corners. The country road driving tutorial offers help for novice drivers on this matter.

Busy town driving will include various road systems such as mini roundabouts and multi-lane roundabouts. Various junction types and crossroads. Quiet residential roads often feature and are potentially hazardous due to narrow lanes and oncoming vehicles.

 

Often these residential areas involve passing parked cars whilst dealing with oncoming vehicles. Expect high speed ‘A’ roads such as the A33 dual carriageway system. The examiner will request one test manoeuvre and the emergency stop procedure having a 1-in-3 possibility of being requested. 10 minutes will be reserved for independent driving.

got failed here 3 times. It was fair enough the first time as i made mistakes, but the examiner was bery rude. The second and third time the examiner were just looking for reasons to fail me. Especially third time, he tapped my wheel as i went past a parked car, saying i was too close and i wouldve hit its mirror if he didnt turn my wheel... he didnt move my bloody wheel he literally tapped it! didnt change my direction at all! and i knew the car was there im not stupid. The examiner touching my wheel is an instant fail, i feel he did it on purpose to make sure he can fail me. I did everything else well, even my teacher was extremely surprised and annoyed when i got failed.
