Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know about practising this route.
Are these the real driving test routes?
Practice Route 3 covers the roads, junctions and manoeuvres around Abergavenny that learners commonly meet on test day. Examiners choose the exact route on the day, so there's no single official list — but practising the local roads you're most likely to be sent down is one of the best ways to prepare and to settle test-day nerves.
How difficult is Practice Route 3, and is it good for beginners?
Practice Route 3 is rated challenging (4/5). It's one of the tougher routes around the test centre, with busier roads and trickier manoeuvres, so it's best left until the fundamentals feel automatic.
How long does Practice Route 3 take to drive?
It's about 14.1 km and takes roughly 22 min at a steady test pace. Leave a little extra for traffic and lights, and plan to drive it more than once — most learners find the route clicks into place by the second or third run.
Where does Practice Route 3 start?
Practice Route 3 is based around Abergavenny — the same neighbourhood your test sets off from. Starting from there lets you practise the first few turns exactly as you'll meet them on the day.
How do I practise Practice Route 3?
Open Practice Route 3 in the Driving Routes app for hands-free, voice-guided turn-by-turn navigation with CarPlay and Android Auto, so a learner driver can keep their eyes on the road while an instructor or supervising driver focuses on coaching.
