At 22.31 km over about 36 minutes, this is the longest route from the centre, run in one stage through Leek Wootton, Borrowell, Woodloes Park and Emscote. Limits span 20 mph up to 70 mph. It is the only route here with a stop sign, where a full stop is required and examiners watch closely, yet it has the fewest roundabouts (just one) and the fewest traffic signals (six) of the three.

Watch Out For

• The mandatory stop sign, come to a complete halt with the wheels stationary before moving off.
• Three school areas with reduced limits and children present.
• A give way on Birmingham Road and a pedestrian crossing near Spinney Hill.

Route Features

• Twelve turns in total, five left and seven right, the most turns of the three routes.
• Fourteen 40 mph zones and eleven 50 mph sections on the longer rural legs.
• One roundabout, give way to the right and signal left on exit.

Test Manoeuvres

• A pull up on the left near the centre, check mirrors and blind spot before rejoining.

Key Tips

• Treat the stop sign as a guaranteed marked fault if you roll through.
• Drop speed early entering each school area.
