About Staffordshire

Staffordshire hosts 7 DVSA practical test centres in total. Catchment runs through Burton upon Trent, Swynnerton and Stone, with the network handling 298.7K car tests on record in the published DVSA dataset. Volume-weighted across every centre that has cleared a 500-test sample, the county averages 53.9%, against 48.7% for the UK as a whole.

That places Staffordshire 5.2 percentage points above the UK average (2024-25 DVSA data). Centres within a single county can still differ widely, urban routes packed with traffic-light junctions, bus lanes and complex roundabouts tend to push pass rates down, while quieter market-town centres lift them. Treat the county figure as the network average, not a guarantee for any single centre.

The headline spread within Staffordshire sits between Burton on Trent (83.5%) at the top of the league and Stafford (46.1%) at the bottom, a gap of 37.4 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.
