Lincolnshire Test Centres and Pass Rates

Across Lincolnshire's three centres, the choice partly comes down to whether you'd rather wait or not. Louth has the best pass rate at 54%, a bit above the 50% average across Great Britain. Grimsby Coldwater is the lowest at 43%, which is clearly below average, though its typical wait of about a month is the shortest around. Lincoln has the longest wait, about 3 months, and the best automatic pass rate nearby at 45%. That only puts it level with the national automatic pass rate, though. Most people will do best testing on the roads they've learned on, and Grimsby's low rate is a reason to make sure that's really where you feel at home.
