THE DRIVING TEST at Kings Heath

Located close to busy main route roads, Kings Heath Driving Test Centre will feature challenging aspects of the routes such as the A435 and it’s multi-lane and fast pace roundabouts. It’s likely that country roads are taken during the test which will feature villages on the outskirts. Read the country road driving tutorial for tips on rural roads on the test.

Villages or quieter residential areas will be used for test manoeuvres and the emergency stop procedure. On every three tests conducted, the emergency stop is requested once.
