Hertfordshire Test Centres and Pass Rates

This massive county covers 23 test centres with 193,495 tests taken between 2024 and 2025, averaging 47.4% overall. Automatic drivers generally struggled here, with rates ranging from 34.9% at Stevenage to 54.9% at Letchworth. The best choice is clearly Letchworth at 58.3%, while Chingford proves toughest at just 36.5% - those North Circular approaches and dense residential streets make it particularly challenging. Men consistently outperformed women across most centres, with typical gaps of 3-5 percentage points, and the mix of London boroughs versus market towns creates vastly different driving conditions from quiet Hertfordshire villages to hectic metropolitan routes.
