About this test centre
Worcester is the DVSA motorcycle module 2 test centre in Worcester, Worcestershire. Examiners drive a mix of the roads immediately surrounding the centre; the DVSA does not publish its test routes. 3.8K tests over 2017-18-2024-25. Worcester 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.
Rank: #97 of 135. Pass rate: 69.9%. UK average: 72.2%. That's a lower half centre by the DVSA's own published figures. DVSA doesn't break out first-attempt figures for Worcester 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.

Whether you pass at Worcester is not decided by the centre. It is decided by the 15 things an examiner can mark you on, and mirrors, change direction is one of the ones that ends attempts early.
Take mirrors, change direction. Routine MSM (Mirror-Signal-Manoeuvre) drilled in lessons not surviving under test-day stress; signal flashed before mirror checked. Most of the argument about what is a minor and what is a serious comes down to cases like that one, so it is worth knowing which side of the line yours falls on before an examiner decides it for you.
Verbalise MSM out loud on every lane change for two full lessons. Slow down the sequence so each step is deliberate, then speed it back up while keeping the order. Free to use, no sign up. Everything for the day itself is on the practical test hub.
