Where you'll take your test in Newcastle upon Tyne
The latest DVSA published reports show an average practical test pass rate of around 47% in the Newcastle upon Tyne area. That average is dragged down by candidates who go to test under-prepared, or who travel in from out of town and don't know the area. Learners who prepare properly with a professional local ADI pass at a significantly higher rate. The DVSA no longer publishes test routes, so we do something better — we teach you the whole testing area, including the tricky junctions and known failing hot-spots, until no stone is left unturned.
