About this test centre

Kirkham LGV: a DVSA motorcycle module 2 test centre in Kirkham, Lancashire. Local routes, local traffic patterns, no national standard for what "harder" or "easier" looks like beyond what the numbers below show. 1.3K tests over 2018-19-2024-25. Kirkham LGV runs at a lower volume than the major metro centres, which means the data on this page rewards looking at the long-run trend rather than any single quarter.

The bottom quarter of the UK by pass rate: Kirkham LGV ranks #105 of 135 motorcycle module 2 centres at 67.9%, 4.3 points below the national figure of 72.2%. First-attempt data for Kirkham LGV 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 Kirkham LGV

  • Centre difficulty is roughly average at Kirkham LGV. The same fault categories that fail candidates nationally (junctions, mirrors, observation) are what fail candidates here, in similar proportions.
  • Practising the roads around the centre is the preparation that most reliably pays off. Most ADI instructors in Kirkham will know the road types and junctions learners commonly meet near the centre.
  • The only legitimate booking route is gov.uk. Anything calling itself a "test booking concierge" is reselling the same slots at a markup, the slots aren't theirs to control.
