More You Need To Know

1. About Blyth Test Centre from a Learner’s View

Operating from Freehold Street, the centre has no on‑site parking; starts are from double‑yellow lines, followed by tight terraced streets.

2. What to Expect on the Day

Parallel parking near Ridley Park is common; independent driving frequently follows the A189 Spine Road—watch for speed cameras.

3. After You Pass

Digital pass, licence in two weeks. Night‑time Pass Plus on the A1 is popular.

4. What If You Don’t Pass?
