Bradford Heaton leads the area with 49.5% overall success from 7,594 tests, while Halifax trails at 44.7% from 4,959 tests taken between 2024 and 2025. The Pennine hills create challenging gradients throughout the region, with steep residential streets in places like Huddersfield and the narrow mill town roads around Heckmondwike testing clutch control and hill starts. Women achieved 43.8% at Bradford Heaton compared to men's impressive 56.1%, the largest gender gap in the region. Automatic pass rates remained consistently around 43-49% across all five centres, suggesting the area's hill-heavy terrain actually suits automatic transmissions better than many urban locations.
