About this test centre

Chevron (Flint) is in Chevron, Greater London (E14 4HA) and runs DVSA hgv/lgv tests for learners across the local area. Your examiner picks the route on the day without telling you which, and the DVSA does not publish them. Chevron (Flint) is a smaller centre by volume, 3.3K tests through 2017-18-2024-25. The figures hold up for headline comparisons but lose granularity once you slice them by quarter.

Out of 124 UK hgv/lgv test centres, Chevron (Flint) ranks 22, which lands it in the top quarter nationally. The 73.8% pass rate is 13.6 points clear of the UK figure of 60.2%. DVSA doesn't break out first-attempt figures for Chevron (Flint) in DRT122C, so the split between first-time and retake pass rates isn't published for this centre.

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.
