West Sussex Test Centres and Pass Rates
Based on the latest DVSA data, 2024–25 | 4 nearby test centres
Chelmsford (Hanbury Road) records the area's lowest pass rate at 44.7%, while Tilbury achieves 49.1% across Wickford's 5 centres that handled 30,087 tests between 2024 and 2025. Essex's busy A-roads and complex junction systems around Chelmsford and Basildon create particular challenges, especially navigating the A12 approaches and numerous roundabouts. The 47.2% area average reflects these demanding conditions. Men consistently outperformed women across all centres, achieving 46% to 51.5% compared to 43.2% to 48.3%. Automatic pass rates ranged from 38.6% to 44.4%, suggesting manual skills help with these busier road networks.
