Chester – Rural Country Roads

The Chester driving test centre is situated in and around many rural country roads. These roads will form part of the driving test and often quite challenging for the learner driver. This is due to the high speeds and sharp bends. The learner driver must make sure that they have plenty of practice so they can develop their ability to be able to judge safe speeds.  The Chester driving test route will include roundabouts will range from small mini-roundabouts in the residential area to large multilane roundabouts usually, leading onto fast flowing roads. The drive will also include crossroads, junctions of all sorts and possibly, one-way systems.

Chester – Driving Independently

Furthermore, the practical test will include about 20 minutes of independent driving which may involve the use a satnav. However, 20% of learner drivers will have the alternative of following road signs instead. During this section of the test, there is a high possibility of covering dual carriageways such as the A494 Chester bypass.

The driving examiner will also ask you to carry out one reverse manoeuvre out of a possible four. The choice of manoeuvre will belong to the examiner. Although not compulsory, there is also a possibility of being required to carry out the emergency stop procedure.
