About this test centre
Hull is in Hull, Hull and East Yorkshire (HU1 3DX) and runs DVSA motorcycle module 1 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. Over 2015-16-2024-25, 8.0K candidates sat tests here. The figures are statistically usable for centre-to-centre comparisons, which is most of what people land on this page wanting to do.
Out of 72 UK motorcycle module 1 test centres, Hull ranks 52, which lands it in the lower half nationally. The 69.8% pass rate is 3.2 points below the UK figure of 73%. First-attempt data for Hull is missing from the DVSA's DRT122C release. It's not a low number, it's no number, the centre is small enough that DVSA omits it from that particular table.
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 Hull

- Ask any instructor working Hull 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.
- Don't pay third-party sites for booking access at Hull. Use gov.uk/book-driving-test directly; cancellations show up on the same booking flow.
Whether you pass at Hull is not decided by the centre. It is decided by the 15 things an examiner can mark you on, and move off, safety is one of the ones that ends attempts early.
A fair amount of what goes wrong is settled before the engine starts: the documents, the car, the 2 vehicle safety questions and whichever habit you have not drilled, move off, safety being a common one. Working through it as a list beats remembering it in the car park.
Six-point check on every move-off: left mirror, centre mirror, right mirror, right shoulder, left shoulder, signal. Practise until the sequence is reflexive. Free to use, no sign up. Everything for the day itself is on the practical test hub.
