About Fife

Learners in Fife have 4 DVSA test centres to choose between. The county pulls candidates from Boreland and Garvock Hill and surrounding areas, recording 100.6K car tests in the DVSA dataset. The headline figure is a 50.3% volume-weighted pass rate, compared with 48.7% nationally.

The 50.3% county figure is 1.6 pp above the 48.7% UK number (2024-25 DVSA data), which makes Fife better than average on the headline measure. Within-county variation matters as much as the average, individual centres can sit anywhere from ten points above to ten points below the county number once you compare them side by side.

The headline spread within Fife sits between Kirkcaldy (67.7%) at the top of the league and Dunfermline (Vine) (43.3%) at the bottom, a gap of 24.4 percentage points. Rural Scottish and Welsh routes typically include fewer junction-controlled signals than English urban centres, which feeds through to higher pass rates.
