About Lancashire
Learners in Lancashire have 16 DVSA test centres to choose between. The county pulls candidates from Heysham, Blackburn with Darwen and Kirkham and surrounding areas, recording 641.2K car tests in the DVSA dataset. The headline figure is a 53.1% volume-weighted pass rate, compared with 48.7% nationally.
The 53.1% county figure is 4.4 pp above the 48.7% UK number (2024-25 DVSA data), which makes Lancashire 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 Lancashire sits between Lancaster Training (Heysham) (80.6%) at the top of the league and Simonswood LGV (42.5%) at the bottom, a gap of 38.1 percentage points. Urban-heavy routes with multi-lane roundabouts, bus lanes and dense pedestrian traffic typically drag the bottom-of-county figure down, even within a single county.
