Driving out of Warwick (Wedgenock House)
Instructors who teach out of Warwick (Wedgenock House) report the same road mix on most routes: market-town roads, roundabouts and edge-of-town dual carriageway. Learners who have only driven quiet estate roads tend to find the pace higher than they expect.
A calmer centre than the nearby cities, but the rural sections catch people out on speed and positioning. Expect at least one manoeuvre on a residential street with parked cars. If your lessons have been in a different part of Warwickshire, plan at least a couple of sessions on these roads before the test.
Warwick (Wedgenock House) takes candidates from across Warwickshire, so plenty arrive having learned on a different road mix. That usually shows in the first five minutes of the drive.
Book the mock early enough that there is time to fix whatever it finds.

Where marks are lost at Warwick (Wedgenock House)
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.
Merging with faster traffic
Emerging too slowly forces other drivers to react, and that is marked. Use the full length of the slip road and match the flow before you merge.
