THE DRIVING TEST IN Stranraer

Being as Stranraer Driving Test Centre is situated in a rural area, the driving test is likely to involve rural country roads and villages. High speed ‘A’ roads such as the A77 are present and are also likely.

In Stranraer itself, the examiner will assess your ability for safety, control and regards to others from various roads such as narrow streets, residential areas and all traffic systems such as roundabouts, crossroads and junctions. The driving test from Stranraer is to include a single test manoeuvre, around 10 minutes of independent driving and the emergency stop being a 1-in-3 possibility.

The test routes are compiled by the examiners who conduct the tests at each specific test centre. Test routes are compiled to utilise as many varied road types and traffic systems as possible so to ensure the test candidate is proficient in all aspects of driving.

Test routes often include difficult parts and by gaining knowledge of the routes offers valuable insight into what to expect on the test. Driving test routes may be available to view or a downloadable app for your mobile device in your area, including Stranraer Driving Test Centre.
