Burgess Hill – Edge of Town

The Burgess Hill driving test centre is located on the outskirts of a busy town. Due to its location, you should expect both rural country roads and busy urban roads to feature on the practical test routes.

The rural country roads that are likely to appear in the driving test will be challenging due to them being narrow combined with the high-speed and sharp bends. The rural country roads around Burgess Hill are not as well maintained as residential roads. You should, therefore, expect extra hazards such as potholes and uneven road surface. Primary “A” roads such as the A273 and the A200 are also likely to appear on the driving test route.

Burgess Hill – Fast Roads

These “A” roads require a special understanding regarding the approach speed when joining. Many learner drivers fail their test on these “A” roads. The driving examiner will expect you to adjust your speed so that you do not force the traffic on the main road to either slow down, swerve or to stop. Once on these roads, you are expected to make progress where ever possible. However, it is just as important to leave at least a two-second gap away from the driver in front of you.

Driving Test Burgess Hill – Pass Rate

Burgess Hill is an extremely driving test centre, with huge numbers of candidates attempting their driving test here. Each month around 730 people take their test here, and out of the number around 350 of these people pass. This statistic gives the test centre a pass rate of 49%, which is still higher than the average across the rest of the driving test centres.

Yearly, the test centre conducts around 8600 driving tests out of which 4230 people pass, giving further data for a pass rate of just below 50%.

In order to take one of our passes in a week course, you will need to hold a valid UK provisional driving license and have passed your theory test. If you do not have a practical test booked, don’t worry. Simply provide us with your driving license number along with your theory pass certificate number and we will get you a fast-track driving test – If you can need help to book your theory test, this can be arranged for you.

However, please remember that our semi-intensive driving course is designed for learners who have recently failed a practical driving test, international drivers, and those who are almost up to test standard. They are not suitable for the new beginner.
