DVSA Practical Test Centres

Practical test centres near Chertsey

The Chertsey test centre is the obvious first choice for local learners, sitting just south of the town centre with a pass rate a few points above the national average. Routes typically cover the residential streets around Chertsey and Addlestone, plus stretches of the A320 and quieter sections near the M25 junctions, so most instructors build familiarity with those areas in the final weeks before test day.

Ashford is around four miles north-east and runs at roughly the national average, making it a practical alternative when Chertsey slots are tight. Slough sits around eight miles north with a slightly lower pass rate, so most learners only consider it as a backup when the closer centres are fully booked.
