About this test centre

Camborne is one of the DVSA's motorcycle module 2 test sites in England, located in Camborne, Cornwall. The choice of routes reflects the local mix of road types rather than any standard national template. Across 2017-18-2024-25 the centre handled 3.3K tests, a modest sample. The aggregated multi-year figure on this page is the most reliable read; quarterly swings deserve more skepticism here than at a high-volume centre.

Camborne is not where the easier motorcycle module 2 tests happen. The 67.1% pass rate sits 5.1 points below the UK average of 72.2%, putting the centre #110 of 135 nationally. For Camborne the DVSA suppresses first-attempt figures in DRT122C. Smaller centres get rolled up; this is one of them. The overall pass rate above is the only published figure.

All figures shown are aggregated from the DVSA quarterly statistical release covering the most recent reporting periods available. Pass-rate calculations exclude tests cancelled by the candidate or examiner. Sample sizes and methodology are described in the source attribution at the foot of this page.

What learners should know about Camborne

  • Camborne runs a tougher-than-average pass rate. If you've trained somewhere quieter, take at least 2-3 lessons on Camborne test-area roads before your date. The difficulty is in the road mix, not the marking sheet.
  • Practising the roads around the centre is the preparation that most reliably pays off. Most ADI instructors in Camborne will know the road types and junctions learners commonly meet near the centre.
  • If you missed the earlier slots at Camborne, cancellations appear on the official DVSA booking service throughout the day. Check at off-peak times (early morning, late evening) for the best chance of catching one.
