THE DRIVING TEST IN Cardiff

Cardiff Driving Test Centre is situated around busy town roads. During the driving test, the driving examiner will instruct you to drive on test routes that include roundabouts, from small mini-roundabouts to large multi-lane, crossroads, junctions and possibly one-way-systems.

Having a good understanding of the test routes in and around the test centre at Cardiff will be beneficial. High speed ‘A’ roads such as the A469 are highly likely with the potential of rural roads (see the country road driving tutorial for tips on taking these roads).

Dual carriageway driving is likely at Cardiff Driving Test Centre as the test centre is situated close to the A470. A thorough understanding of all 4 driving test manoeuvres is essential as is the emergency stop procedure.
