Yorkshire and the Humber: questions
Which Yorkshire and the Humber driving test centre has the highest pass rate?
Malton, at 64.3% in 2025-26 against a national 50%. The lowest in the region is Sheffield (Handsworth) at 44.1%. A pass rate mostly describes the roads and the traffic around a centre rather than the marking, which is the same everywhere.
How long is the wait for a driving test in Yorkshire and the Humber?
The median across 25 Yorkshire and the Humber centres is 10.1 weeks, from DVSA's monthly figures for July 2026. That is shorter than the 11.9 week national median. The spread inside a region is usually wider than the gap between regions, so the centre matters more than the region does.
Can I swap a driving test between Yorkshire and the Humber centres?
Only where DVSA allows the move. A swap has to leave both learners at their own centre, at one of their three nearest, or at a centre they first booked at, and it has to work in both directions. Being in the same region is not enough on its own: 1 of the 25 centres here reach nowhere else at all. Each centre page lists the ones it can actually reach.
How many driving test centres are there in Yorkshire and the Humber?
25. 25 of them have a published pass rate, covering 172,942 car tests in 2025-26.
