Felixstowe Test Centres and Pass Rates
This single centre achieved an exceptional 63.1% pass rate from 10,724 tests between 2024 and 2025, well above the national average. Women slightly outperformed men at 64.5% versus 62%, while automatic drivers succeeded at a strong 54.9% rate. Ipswich benefits from its grid-like town centre layout and the fact that many test routes use the newer residential developments on the outskirts, avoiding the narrow historic core that creates problems in other Suffolk market towns.
