Newmarket Test Centres and Pass Rates
Based on the latest DVSA data, 2024–25 | 1 nearby test centre
West Wickham processed 11,147 tests between 2024 and 2025 with a 50.9% pass rate, slightly above the national average despite the southeast London location. The suburban roads around West Wickham and nearby Bromley offer a mix of residential streets, busy high streets, and approaches to the M25, providing comprehensive test experience without central London's intensity. Women achieved 51.1% compared to men's 50.7%, one of the few locations where women slightly outperformed men. Automatic learners secured a solid 48.3% pass rate, suggesting the area's road layout doesn't particularly penalise automatic transmissions compared to more challenging urban locations.
