Knowing the driving test routes: preparation is key<\/h2>\n

The right preparation for your driving test<\/a> is essential, and revising the routes is a key part of this. Check out the main routes for Croydon<\/a> below:<\/p>\n

What to expect<\/h3>\n

Not all routes are created equal, although you should find that most routes require a similar level of competence. Individual routes focus on different skills though, so it pays to be familiar with them.<\/p>\n

Your instructor is the best person to help you with this, and has been taking these routes in your lessons.<\/p>\n

It is helpful to have a chat with your instructor about which routes you could improve on, and which are your strengths.<\/p>\n

It is also a good idea to get some practice on tricky areas in your own time, so ask family members to help you.<\/p>\n

Know your routes<\/h3>\n

The test routes are not published anymore, however, they take some well-trodden paths. Make sure you ask your instructor for the most up to date routes, as they are they will know.<\/p>\n

You can also download test routes for Croydon<\/a> on Google Maps, for some extra revision.<\/p>\n

Other new drivers are a useful resource as well, as they have recent experience of the routes the test centres uses.<\/p>\n

Best of all, have a look at our analysis below and make sure you revise the routes in plenty of time.<\/p>\n

Study hard<\/h3>\n

Croydon focuses on routes 1 to 4, starting out on Canterbury Rd. Routes 1 and 3 take a right hand turn here, so make sure you are nice and calm as you start out.<\/p>\n

Route number 4 is often seen as the most tricky, taking three consecutive roundabouts that start on Mitcham Rd, so get in the right lane and be confident.<\/p>\n

Later on, there is a sharp bend on Galpins Rd, so take it slowly. Route 2 and 3 start out gently, with the roundabouts to test you towards the end, so don\u2019t lose concentration and be certain to keep your cool.<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t let route number 1 catch you out with the mini roundabout on Queens Rd, and take it slowly.<\/p>\n

You have finessed your clutch control<\/a> and have finally managed a perfect hill start, but all your hard work will be wasted if you are not prepared for the routes your examiner might take.<\/p>\n

Make sure you research, and good luck!<\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
