The 48.4% county figure is 0.3 pp below the 48.7% UK number (2024-25 DVSA data), which makes Glasgow City tougher 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 Glasgow City sits between Glasgow (Shieldhall) (70.3%) at the top of the league and Glasgow (Shieldhall) (37.7%) at the bottom, a gap of 32.6 percentage points. Rural Scottish and Welsh routes typically include fewer junction-controlled signals than English urban centres, which feeds through to higher pass rates.
