Route 10

Route 10 covers the roads, junctions and manoeuvres around Featherstone 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.

Route 10 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.

It's about 13.1 km and takes roughly 36 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.

Route 10 is based around Featherstone — 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.

Open Route 10 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.
