Practical Test Centres in Scottish Borders
Your practical test will be at your nearest DVSA centre in the Scottish Borders, such as Galashiels, Hawick, Kelso or Peebles. We build your lessons around the local routes you’re likely to be tested on, so test day feels familiar. Remember you book your own test, and we help you prepare for the right centre.
What’s It Like To Drive Around Scottish Borders?
Driving in the Scottish Borders mixes the town streets of Galashiels and Hawick with quieter residential roads and plenty of open, faster rural routes through the hills and valleys. You’ll meet roundabouts in the larger towns, the A7 and A68 corridors, and slower country lanes with bends and gradients. On an LPOD intensive course we focus your practice on the roads and manoeuvres you’re most likely to meet on test day across the Scottish Borders.
