DVSA Practical Test Centres

Practical test centres near Brockenhurst

Brockenhurst learners typically book their practical at Southampton Maybush, around thirteen miles north in the city's western suburbs. The centre runs below the national average for pass rates, though it remains the closest option and covers a mix of urban junctions, residential streets and dual carriageway sections that work well for final lesson prep. Southampton Forest Hills sits a couple of miles further north-east and posts a pass rate right around the national average, making it a sensible alternative when Maybush slots are scarce.

Lee On The Solent is roughly fifteen miles east along the coast and consistently posts the strongest pass rate of the three, so many local learners choose it for a quieter test environment. Routes there tend to cover coastal roads and the residential areas around Gosport, which offer fewer multi-lane roundabouts than the Southampton centres but still test all the key manoeuvres and junctions.
