We hear it regularly from Learners that people are talking on social media that certain Driving Test centres are much easier to pass in than others. There is some evidence in the data released from the RSA to suggest that rural test centres in general have a higher pass rate than Dublin with the overall national average pass rate being at 53%. From our experience if you are test ready the location of the test centre in general does not matter. We can identify quiet quickly whether a learner is likely to pass or not. The most common mistake learners make is not ensuring that they are at the required test ready standard before applying for the test. If you are booked in for your test, make sure to book in for a pre-test lesson with your instructor prior to your test day. The 3 most common reasons that learners fail their test are positioning, vehicle controls and observation so make sure you fully understand what is required here. The RSA also revealed that over 2100 driving tests were abandoned in 2020 alone due to severe weather or vehicles not being suitable to complete the driving test. If you are planning to use your own vehicle, make sure you are up to date as to what you must have in place for your car to be fully compliant to complete the driving test.
