Driving test centre FAQs

How long is the wait for a driving test?
The median wait between booking and taking a car test across Great Britain was 11.1 weeks in July 2026, according to DVSA table DRT122F. Each centre page shows its own figure.
Should I pick a test centre with a high pass rate?
DVSA's tables count passes at each centre, not why people pass. The roads you know best are around the centre where you learned, and booking somewhere unfamiliar for its pass rate means being tested on roads you have not practised on.
