Here is the sort of driving the local routes involve, and what we make sure you have covered before test day. ## Driving out of Redhill Aerodrome Candidates taking their practical at Redhill Aerodrome spend most of the drive on inner distributor road, signalled roundabouts and older terraced grids. That mix means the marking sheet fills up quickly if you have only practised in one type of environment. Multi-lane roundabouts appear more than once, so plan two junctions ahead. Manoeuvres are normally set in quieter estates a few minutes from the centre. Most candidates here travel in from around Surrey, so allow for the journey when you pick a slot. Redhill Aerodrome draws candidates from across Surrey, so a good share of learners arrive having practised somewhere with a different road mix. Where that shows up is in the first five minutes of the drive, which is exactly where a nervous start costs marks. Test day should be the least interesting drive of your course. Everything above is how that happens. ## Roads you are likely to meet Inner distributor road Signalled roundabouts Older terraced grids - Multi-lane roundabouts appear more than once, so plan two junctions ahead. - Manoeuvres are normally set in quieter estates a few minutes from the centre. - Most candidates here travel in from around Surrey, so allow for the journey when you pick a slot. Test routes are no longer published by the DVSA, and examiners vary them. Treat this as a guide to the local road types rather than a route list. Book your test and check availability on [GOV.UK](https://www.gov.uk/book-driving-test). ## Where marks are lost at Redhill Aerodrome One-way systems and box junctions The fault here is almost always a late lane change under pressure, forcing someone else to brake. Roundabout observation and lane choice Marks are lost for arriving in the wrong lane, or for hesitating at a gap that was long enough. Decide your lane at the sign, not at the give-way line. Priority on narrow streets The recurring fault is stopping in the gap rather than before it, then having nowhere to go when something comes the other way. ## How we prepare you for this centre Time on the real roads We plan the final sessions around Redhill Aerodrome itself, so the inner distributor road you meet on test day are ones you have already driven.
