THE DRIVING TEST IN Taunton
The driving test from Taunton Driving Test Centre is likely to feature many diverse road types. Based on the edge of Taunton, rural country roads often feature during the test which may lead to villages of the surrounding area. The country road driving tutorial provides a guide on how to best use rural roads during the driving test.
Dual carriageway systems such as the A38 and A358 are also likely. In Taunton itself, test routes will cover roundabouts of all types, crossroads and junctions. Narrow, often difficult to pass oncoming vehicles are the case with certain residential areas that have high levels of parked vehicles (see passing parked cars).
These areas are often used to perform one of the possible four test manoeuvres requested by the examiner and the emergency stop having around a 1-in-3 possibility of taking place. Knowing each and every test route isn’t essential, though gaining an understanding of the particularly difficult areas of the test routes often proves beneficial.
Examiners who conduct the tests develop the test routes for their test centres with the intention of taking the test candidate through as many varied road types and traffic systems as possible, within the time given. This is to ensure test candidates can deal with all situations and often involves difficult areas. Driving test routes may be available to view or a downloadable app for your mobile device in your area, including Taunton Driving Test Centre.

Taunton Test Centre - I recently passed both my MOD1 and MOD2 motorbike tests. The test centre is clean and bright, comfortable waiting area. I had the same examiner for both tests, Adrian. He was extremely polite and explained everything before and during the tests calmly, putting me at ease and calming my nerves. After both tests Adrian gave valuable feedback and advice on any minor faults. I was very nervous prior to both tests, but I did it! Thank You!
I have just taken my mod 1 and mod 2 motorbike test at the centre and was very impressed with the the examiner who took me for both elements of the test. He was very supportive , considerate, and helpful, I know they have a job to do , but he made me feel at ease especially when your taking your test and you are a bit nervous , the guys name was Adrian I think, so a big thank to this person.
I find everyone of the examineers really friendly at the end of the day they have a job to do and if your not safe to be on the road its for your own interest
My partner so many times here ,beginning to wonder about these examiners, makes me mad when partner has failed over not so important things compare to the 100 year olds driving, and the program that was showing on TV the way these old drivers get away with it .Am certainly gonna investigate ,I've been driving for 39 years and drive every day and with no penalties or accident and I consider my partner a safe driver compare to even probably the examiners are. Bet none of them can't beat my record of experiences on safety of the road and my partner is very knowledgeable at driving .Is it only a majority of foreigners that do struggle with all these examiners all is it most all of them do not pass, Interesting on comparison of pupils attending taunton test centre.Dash cam front and rear with in car cam recorded. And a copy of recording's for the pupils.Best idea I should say . No star ratings. Zero.
