15 routes with 383 steps, 331 turns, 130 roundabouts & 50 lights to practise!
Many of the routes include back-to-back roundabouts along the A361 and A39, especially near Roundswell and Eastern Avenue. be sure to stay calm, look early for signs, and be ready to change your lane position if necessary. These sequences are all about timing and awareness, so don’t rush - use your mirrors and give way where required.
From flowing dual carriageways to tighter turns in places like Whiddon Drive and Westfield Avenue, you'll experience a range of driving environments. Be mindful of the speed changes, watch for any pedestrians, and navigate the parked cars narrowing the road carefully. Smooth control is key.
Expect sharp lefts and rights at junctions like Rumsam Road, Vicarage Road, and Church Meadow. Some end-of-road turns will have reduced visibility, so always slow right down, look both ways, and commit confidently when it’s safe to do so.
Most routes tend to finish with you heading back through busier town sections like Victoria Road or Portmarsh Lane. Keep your focus through the final few turns - watching for merging traffic, lane changes, and queues at traffic lights as you make your way back to the test centre.
