The answers to Questions 6462 on 9 October 2024, and 89574 on 11 November 2025, provide data covering April 2015 to October 2025 respectively. The attached spreadsheet shows the monthly average waiting time for a car practical driving test at each driving test centre, and zone, for each month between November 2025, and February 2026.

Please note, some driving test centres no longer conduct car tests or have closed. There are also some driving test centres that did not conduct car tests in some individual months.
