A Bit More About Sheffield 

Located to the north of the Sheffield area, Middlewood is surrounded by a mix of both urban and residential roads. This even mix is beneficial in giving examiners enough variety to test candidates on. From A roads like the A61 to tricky one-way systems in the quieter, residential areas—learners will be well and truly put through their paces. Want to know more about Sheffield in general? Check out the resources below. 

Middlewood Test Route

The DVSA no longer publishes routes in order to stop candidates from memorising them. Don't worry, you can still get a rough idea of what to expect by looking at videos of Middlewood test routes on YouTube or downloading our sample Middlewood driving test routes. Additionally, your instructor will no doubt be familiar with the roads most likely to feature on routes and help you become accustomed to driving on them.

What If I Can't Go To Middlewood?

There’s a small variety of test centres to head to in South Yorkshire. If you can’t head to Middlewood, you don’t have to go far—Handsworth is closest.

What To Expect On The Day?

Not sure what to expect on the day of your practical test? That’s fine—it’s pretty straightforward. After completely your course, you should be completely test-ready. On the day of your test, get to Middlewood 10 minutes early with your provisional. Your practical will then follow this format: 

  • An eyesight test, where you’ll need to read a number plate from a distance of 20 metres
  • Two “show me, tell me” questions covering vehicle safety and maintenance
  • Twenty minutes of general driving, where you’ll be guided by the examiner, and will also need to perform one of the following manoeuvres:
  • Twenty minutes of independent driving, during which you’ll either follow sat nav directions or sign posts to reach a set destination

So, when do you know if you’ve passed? You’ll be told at the end of the test. Regardless of your result, the examiner will walk you through any faults you made by using a feedback sheet. If you do pass, you'll get a test pass certificate and the chance to send off for your new licence that day.
