Tom Price PDA Driving Test Routes Book Test
Typical Speed Limits The Tom Price test route covers 50 to 110 km/h. Quiet residential streets around Central Road and Stadium Road are 50 km/h. Killawarra Drive is the highway section at 110 km/h, the fastest speed on any route from this centre. There are no intermediate speed zones, creating an abrupt jump from suburban to highway speed.
Traffic Conditions Tom Price is one of the most remote mining towns in WA's Pilbara region. Local traffic is exceptionally light, with the town primarily serving the nearby iron ore mines. Killawarra Drive carries some mining-related heavy vehicles, including road trains, which you may encounter during the 110 km/h section. Residential streets are virtually empty outside of shift change times. The extreme remoteness means minimal through-traffic.
Key Features This 8 km single-stage route is one of the simplest test environments in WA: zero roundabouts and zero traffic signals. The entire route relies on stop signs and give way intersections. Two stop signs on Central Road near the start require a complete stop. The defining challenge is the 110 km/h section on Killawarra Drive, which demands confident acceleration and early braking when returning to 50 km/h suburban streets. With only 12 turns (5 left, 7 right) across just 9 roads, navigation is straightforward.
Common Test Manoeuvres Expect a kerbside stop near Central Road. With no roundabouts and no traffic lights, the test at Tom Price focuses on two main areas: highway speed management on Killawarra Drive and basic intersection compliance at stop and give way signs. You must accelerate to near 110 km/h on the highway section. Begin slowing well before the speed reduction sign when returning to town. The stop signs on Central Road require wheels to come to a complete stop.
