A 4.1 mile loop of about 15 minutes through Darlaston, Fallings Heath and Wood Green, held at 30 mph for its entire length. It has just one signposted turn, the fewest of any route at this centre, so roundabouts, lane discipline and steady main road driving carry the assessment instead of junction turning.

Watch Out For

  • Four roundabouts, giving way to the right and signalling left on exit.
  • Eight sets of traffic lights across a short distance.
  • A pedestrian crossing on a busy shopping stretch.
  • A give way junction that needs an early look both ways.

Route Features

  • One constant 30 mph limit, with no faster or slower zones to react to.
  • Long main road runs on Park Lane and Wood Green Road.
  • A single right turn, which is the only signposted turn on the route.

Test Manoeuvres

Key Tips

  • Hold 30 mph rather than drifting slower, examiners note undue hesitation.
