Brecon Driving Test Centre

Terrible male examiner, worrying how such a unhappy man who clearly doesn't want to take the tests and be around new drivers as his nerves are very shot can be in charge of life changing decisions is beyond me, really need to have a closer look at your corrupt examiners

Real poor experience and can see how a learner driver could be put off from sitting another test, Real unprofessional examiner who got angry and shouted , spat and raised his voice during the test for no apparent reason and then apologised and continued to apologies for the rest of the test, , I think this centre needs to look into their examiners pass rates as this examiner was not very professional and failed my student harshly due to his own stressful related problems, VERY UNPROFESSIONAL!!!

Had a test last week. Examiner stride over to our car and refused to use the car citing COVID and not clean enough. There was no rubbish in the car and everything had been wiped with anti bac. It’s an old car but has recent MOT and no lights on. He point blank refused to use the car and was pretty abrupt and self righteous. Daughter was devastated. Lost the £62 and another 4 month wait because of the backlog. A real jobsworth. Govt website sites the car must be clear or rubbish and wiped with anti bac. Complained but they said it was the examiners choice.

Done my driving test in September. Due to covid a examiner from newport covered. I had 7 minors and he failed me for not looking behind when pulling off (i done this 3 times, i forgot to look once. The other twice i done everything correct.
He made me feel anxious and nervous the whole time and did not talk or try to make the atmosphere better.

I took my driving test yesterday. Being from merthyr and merthyr test center wasnt open i had to choose an alturnative. Brecon was my first choice due it it being a loving and calming area. I suffer with really bad anxiety and before my test i dont the exaxt route the examinor took me on and i done it with no problems at all. I started my test an i felt very uncomfortable with the examinor as it he made me feel like he just didnt want to be there at all. I was 5 mins into my test and o stalled the car, i made it safe and carried on driving of course i hade a minor for it that was expected. I carried on and come to a roundabout there was hardly any cars on the roundabout and the satnav just said TAKE THE 3RD EXITlittrally as i was coming to the roundabout. I did not know if the 3rd exit was the last exit on the roundabout so i did not indercate to turn right. I stayed in the left lane unil i come to the 3rd exit where i indicated to turn off and the instructor told me not to and to carry on untill the last exit to where he was taking me back to the test center as i apparent had a major. I got back to the test center and he told me i had failed me test as it was a very dangerous situation. After waiting 6 months for my test as because of covid and 3 of my tests being canceled i was very disapoined with the examinor. I made a mistake but i corrected it, it should have been a minor and to compleate the really bad day the examinor pulled out the dash cam so me have no evidence that i did not deserve to faile! I would avoid this test center where at all possible. Extreamly disapointed as im a confident driver, prior to this iv driven to bristol, swansea and alot of other big citys with no problems at all! I have 3 children two of which are under 3 and im a full time student so i really needed to pass this test where as if i was in merthyr i know for a fact i would jave passed with flyinh colours!
