About this test centre

Drivers booked at Steeton report to a DVSA centre in Steeton, West Yorkshire, postcode BD20 6SB. The motorcycle module 2 routes used here are drawn from the streets the centre's examiners drive every week, so the test reflects local conditions rather than a generic syllabus. Volume here sits at 1.1K over 2018-19-2024-25. That's the territory where a noisy quarter can shift the rate by two or three percentage points, so read the trend chart in context rather than reacting to any single bar.

By raw pass rate Steeton sits at 82.4%, with the DVSA's national motorcycle module 2 average over the same window running at 72.2%. The gap (10.2 points clear of the UK figure) places the centre at rank #15 of 135, inside the top quarter of the country's motorcycle module 2 test centres. First-attempt data for Steeton 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 Steeton

  • Don't read a higher pass rate as a softer test. Steeton'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.
  • Practising the roads around the centre is the preparation that most reliably pays off. Most ADI instructors in Steeton will know the road types and junctions learners commonly meet near the centre.
  • Book through the official DVSA service (gov.uk/book-driving-test). Third-party "fast-track" sites charge a premium for the same booking; the official DVSA booking service is free.
