Buckinghamshire Test Centres and Pass Rates

53,148 tests were taken across these 7 centres from 2024 to 2025, with Luton struggling at 40.1% due to heavy traffic around the airport and complex motorway junction systems. High Wycombe and Leighton Buzzard both achieved 51.0%, benefiting from better balanced routes between town centres and quieter suburban areas. The M25 and M40 corridor creates challenging dual carriageway conditions that test motorway confidence. Women's performance ranges from 37.0% to 48.3%, men from 43.0% to 53.9%, while automatic rates vary from 37.8% to 46.2% depending largely on traffic density and road complexity.
