Sat-Nav Driving Test
While conducting the independent driving test, the examiner will ask the learner driver to take directions from the Satnav. The examiner will bring a configured Tomtom Start 52 device. All you’ll have to do is to take directions from the device. The model or make of the Sat-nav that you’ll use in your learning sessions will not make a difference at all. As a leading Satnav company, we supply driving test-routes for iPhone, Garmin, Android and Tomtom devices.You cannot utilise your personal Sat-Nav device during the driving test.

Using Route-Led's test routes allows the users to practise the roads, junctions and corners that they will encounter during their driving examinations.To help the student in practising how to conduct a vehicle safely and also to pass the driving test, we highly recommend using a good driving teacher. How it works
Independent Driving Test
The Independent driving test doesn’t check your skill in following directions. Moreover, an independent driving test does not test your ability to remember directions. If you query the examiner for the directions, they should give them to you. Going off route won’t affect your test score in any way. Don’t fret about obscured road signs as the examiner will assist you should you require it. You should note that you can’t take your personal Sat-nav device with you to take the examination. This is due to the fact that your personal Sat-Nav device will be configured to provide detailed directions.
