Thornton Cleveleys Test Centres and Pass Rates

Based on the latest DVSA data, 2024–25 | 1 nearby test centre

Blackpool's seaside location brings unique challenges including seafront traffic, tourist congestion, and the famous tramway system that learners must navigate safely. The single centre achieved a 49.6% pass rate across 6,271 tests between 2024 and 2025, with virtually identical results for men (49.7%) and women (49.4%). Automatic drivers managed 47.3% success - slightly below the manual rate but still reasonable given the coastal town's busy summer traffic.
