About this test centre

Grangemouth is one of the DVSA's motorcycle module 2 test sites in Scotland, located in Grangemouth, Falkirk. The choice of routes reflects the local mix of road types rather than any standard national template. 1.3K tests across 2021-22-2024-25, a workable sample but on the lighter side. Single-period swings can look dramatic without actually meaning much, the multi-year aggregate is the more honest number.

Grangemouth passes higher than most. At 79.2% versus a UK average of 72.2%, it ranks #32 of 135 motorcycle module 2 centres, the top quarter of the network. For Grangemouth 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 Grangemouth

  • Don't read a higher pass rate as a softer test. Grangemouth's rate reflects route geography more than examiner discretion, DVSA marking is centrally trained. Prepare for the same fault categories you'd prepare for anywhere.
  • Ask any instructor working Grangemouth about the centre's "usual fails", they'll have two or three specific junctions or manoeuvres in mind. Practise those until they're automatic before your date.
  • If you missed the earlier slots at Grangemouth, 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.
