Canterbury Driving Test Centre

There are two test centres in Canterbury. A practical test centre dedicated for car and taxi practical tests and a test centre for LGV

The Canterbury Driving Test Centres are located in busy areas. Expect the driving test routes to be challenging and to include small and large, multi-lane roundabouts, mini roundabouts and junctions.

Expect high speed ‘A’ roads to be included in the driving test such as the A28 and A2050. These will require a good understanding of approaching traffic speed to join. Rural roads are often a feature of the driving test.

These high sped roads often have narrow lanes and sharp bends that can be hazardous (see country road driving for tutorials). Narrow and difficult to manoeuvre residential streets may provide hazardous conditions due to oncoming vehicles.
