On the marking sheet

Every centre in Wade Trough marks the same sheet, so the choice between them counts for less than whether response, traffic lights is solid. There are 15 categories on that sheet.

Take response, traffic lights. Hesitation on amber from over-cautiousness (creating amber-light minors); failing to stop in time at staggered lights; jumping the gun on green before the box is clear. 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.

Is that a fault?Show me, tell me questionsTest day readiness check

Amber-light decision practice: at every amber, the instructor calls "stop or go" so you build the muscle for the right call. Practise multi-stage junctions. Free to use, no sign up. Everything for the day itself is on the practical test hub.

About these statistics

Pass rates shown above use the latest DVSA reporting period for each centre. Rates are volume-weighted across the city, larger centres carry proportionally more weight than smaller ones. Centres with fewer than 1,000 tests in the current period are flagged as low-sample to avoid statistically noisy comparisons. Always factor in your own preparation, instructor recommendations, and route familiarity, pass rates are a useful signal, not a guarantee.
