Staffordshire Test Centres and Pass Rates

Based on the latest DVSA data, 2024–25 | 4 nearby test centres

Automatic drivers struggled across Staffordshire with rates from 34.9% to 41.1%, while the region's 4 centres saw 22,056 tests between 2024 and 2025. The Potteries area around Stoke creates particular challenges - Cobridge managed just 38.8% and Newcastle-Under-Lyme 40.7% due to the steep hills, narrow terraced streets, and complex roundabout systems around the A500. Women achieved 38.4% to 46% while men managed 39.1% to 46.2%. Crewe performed best at 44.4% thanks to its railway town layout with wider Victorian streets, though the busy junction systems around the train works still present challenges for new drivers.
