Not just this, but coronavirus has halted the ability for people to learn with instructors, meaning they have been forced to learn with appropriate family members on necessary journeys instead.

How it was done

The first step was to take the DVSA last published test routes with hundreds of published routes analysed. They then utilised local driving instructor blogs to determine anecdotal evidence of which roads have been included the most recently.

With a combination of these two data sources, Group 1 Automotive were able to confidently say which roads could feature the most on a potential driving test. We also split the test centres by region, showing the busiest according to DVSAdata below.
