THE DRIVING TEST IN Stevenage

During the driving test from Stevenage Driving Test Centre, many challenging and varied roads will be taken. Often driving outside of Stevenage itself will result in rural country roads (see the country road driving tutorial for further advice), villages and perhaps high speed ‘A’ roads such as the A602 dual carriageway.

In Stevenage, the examiner will expect a high standard of driving, regard for others and safety at most major traffic systems. Expect all roundabout types, junctions and crossroads.

 

The driving test from Stevenage Driving Test Centre often takes you on quieter residential areas, often used for test manoeuvres of which one of the possible four will be requested. The areas are also to test your ability for meeting vehicles whilst navigating parked vehicles and passing distances (see passing parked cars). The test routes are compiled by the examiners who conduct the tests at each specific test centre.

I had a very positive experience at this test centre. My examiner was very friendly and personable, which put me at easy. He had a very calm and relaxed manner, just what I needed to calm my extreme test anxiety. I think it was due to his positive attitude that i managed to stay calm in several tricky situations throughout the test and resolve any issues safely. I passed first time and received some useful feedback at the end of the test.

My daughter took her second driving test today and was failed again for not giving way to the right at a roundabout even though there was nothing coming! If she had hesitated she would have been failed for not taking a clear path to join the roundabout. So no matter what she did it would have been wrong!!! It's not right that a test centre's pass rates depend on the mood of the examiners at the time. It's highly unprofessional and they should be ashamed of themselves!!!! It's well known that certain examiner's make it harder to pass than others at this test centre. It should be a standard across the board, not an individual test examiner's personality that dictates if someone should pass or not!!

I ran into a horrible examiner named Tony, he is so big and as soon as he got into the instructors vehicle it tilted to the left. And he had a humidity cloud around him he was so tense and miserable, as soon as we got into the car and i started to move off he slammed the break i almost hit my head on the dashboard if not for the seat belt. Avoid TONY he is miserable !

Here are my thoughts on how the DVLA system is unfair, shady and a joke. The system of calculating the result is completely up to the examiner so they can choose to fail you or to pass you by deciding whether your fault is minor or serious, so at the end of the day, they can achieve the revenue target for the agency, this area is a very grey area and it needs to be clear. There are endless scenarios on the road every day, for example if you can't find a safe gap to pull out at a junction, an impatient driver could use their horn to urge you to go before you think it's safe but the examiner could fail you because you are causing traffic congestion, or you might find your safe gap in a way to avoid causing traffic congestion, but this could be classified as a serious fault because it wasn't safe enough from the examiner's perspective, in both scenarios you can't win. Not to mention the subject of the OSERVATION and how they can play with it.

Think of how many drivers that are on the road that make serious faults everyday and are still driving around without any consequences! Also the nerves and stress element whilst taking the test don't seem to be taken into consideration Some people get stressed out by being watched by others at the best of times let alone under scrutiny by an examiner!! Another thing, why anyone has to wait at least 10 days to retake the test? You will be very lucky if you find a vacant slot after 10 days, unless you keep constantly checking the website and yet it is a matter of luck, this could be because the failing rate is generally too high, at least 40% of people are retaking the test. Examiners are well protected by the agency and the law; you just can't win however well you did in the test, simply because they bring money to the agency, that's why during the test they won't allow any camera recording from inside the car so you don't have any proof of misconduct (check the official web site).
