Key Focus Areas
Take some extra time to practise the following areas around Farnborough as they appear frequently throughout the 30 route variations, and will likely feature during your test:
Aerospace Boulevard & Hercules Way
These form the opening and closing stretch of most of the tests. They’re straightforward enough, but include several roundabouts which are great for showing awareness of other vehicles from the start.
Rectory Road & Church Circle
Quieter suburban roads where your examiner may ask you to perform a manoeuvre or your emergency stop. Focus on accuracy and good all-round observation when parking or reversing here.
Peabody Road & Queens Road
This residential zone has mini roundabouts and tight turns to navigate. It’s perfect for showcasing your steering precision and awareness of parked vehicles.
Lynchford Road & A331 Slip Junctions
You may be tested on entering or exiting the dual carriageway. Build your speed confidently and merge smoothly without hesitation, and with proper signalling and checks.
Park Road & Sycamore Road Area
These sections are great for mirror and signal practice. You can expect to see pedestrians, so keep speeds gentle and stay alert for zebra crossings.
More Tips
If you’re learning the routes with the app, you have a major advantage when it comes to passing your test. Combine that with these tips and you can head to your practical exam full of confidence:
Time of day
Don’t forget to drive in the mornings when traffic is busier, and late afternoon when light might be fading for added experience.
Choosing a Route
Pick a route from the preview feature that suits your confidence level to begin with. Then progress to more complicated maps.
Weather
It may rain during your test, so be sure to get some wet weather experience so nothing deters you on test day.

Practise Farnborough Test Routes
The test examiner will ask the student to follow instructions from a setup Sat nav on their own. The Satnav will include the route that the student needs to follow. The make or model of Satnav device used during the exam will not make a difference as the driving test route will be the same. In case the learner driver tries the wrong route, the examiner will advise accordingly. That said, we very much suggest the Tomtom Start 52 mainly as it is what examiners utilise while examining driving tests.
As a client-focused company, we provide our clients with extra help and support for Route-led's test-routes. Learning with our driving test-routes enables the customers to experience the junctions, corners and roads that they will encounter during their driving examinations.To assist the learner in learning how to conduct a vehicle carefully and in addition to pass the driving test, we highly suggest using an experienced driving instructor. How it works
If you veer off the independent driving route, it will not have any impact on your examination score unless you break a traffic regulation, do an additional driving mistake or make a traffic offence. In the case where you make an incorrect route choice, the examiner will help you return to the route. Where you have poor or obscure road signs, the test examiner will direct the examinee until such time as they get to the following visible road sign. The learner doesn’t need to have a good understanding of the area. You cannot use your personal Sat-Nav for independent driving, mainly because it gives the student very detailed instructions. The independent driving part will test if you can make secure independent choices.
