THE DRIVING TEST IN Kettering
Practical driving tests are designed to put the test candidate through as many varied roads and traffic systems as possible. Kettering Driving Test Centre is situated around both rural and urban roads, both of which are likely to be a part of the driving test.
Rural roads have their own unique set of challenges, often due to high speed roads and sharp corners. Our country road driving tutorial offers advice on rural roads, particularly on how to asses a safe and appropriate speed. High speed ‘A’ roads such as the A14 dual carriageway are also likely.
The test will involve busy urban driving and include traffic systems such as roundabouts, (from large multi-lane roundabout at dual carriageways to small mini roundabouts), crossroads and junctions. During the driving test, the examiner will request one of the possible four manoeuvres they have to choose from and a 1 in 3 chance of the emergency stop being requested.
All practical driving tests for cars now have around 10 minutes of independent driving. This simply involves following basic maps provided by the examiner and/or road signs. Test routes are available for many of the test centres and may include Kettering driving test routes. Viewing the test routes provide test candidates with an insight into the various types of roads and traffic systems they’re likely to encounter.

And again Jane!!!! The rudest examiner !!! Her attitude and professionalism is absolutely appalling. She makes the young drivers feel anxious and there self confidence hits very low. She failed me 10 years ago even though the next time i had my driving test, my other examiner was lovely and she told me that i was a very good driver. Now recently she failed my daughter with very poor explanation, my daughter came in confidently thinking that she had passed and she was shocked when Jane announced that she failed. she had a poor attitude and her aura came across very hostile.
Steve did my module 1 and module 2 test and he is amazing so calm, clear, relaxes you. A truly proffessional but calm & empathetic star. I had him for all my tests throughout which was really good as it helped calm my nerves as i failed module 1 first time. Hubby also had Steve for his module 1 and 2 and he too said what a lovely guy he was and how calm he made us feel. Thanks Steve 😊 i will always appreciate how kind you were in helping calm our nerves.
My daughter took her test yesterday and the test examiner wanted her to turn right which
Meant she would have blocked the road and consequently the car would have been hit. So she held back for safety and he failed her on time waisting. Absolutely disgusting. Diffo would not like to use this centre if hes going to teach unsafe driving etc
Very rude male on arrival to the test centre - making judgment on Covid 19- without knowing the facts,
Urgent needs to be trained or educated on Covid 19 regulations.
Did not offer any explanations on his actions while waiting was again rude and arrogant to a another learner- no surprise that he failed test.
So thankful for my driving examiner Steve today , my nerves were sky high on my lesson before my test but throughout my test Steve spoke to me and made it as comfortable for me as possible and I passed !!
Such a good examiner
