1. By car

Leave the M6 (J1) and join the A426 Leicester Road toward Rugby. At the Tesco roundabout, turn right onto Lawford Road (A4071), then left into Addison Road and right onto Somers Road—Aspect House appears on the left. Arrive no more than 10 minutes early; bays are tight and shared with nearby units.

2. By public transport

• Bus – Stagecoach routes 4/4A run every 15 minutes between Brownsover, town centre and Bilton, stopping on Somers Road / Addison Road—2 minutes’ walk.
• Train – Rugby station is 1.3 miles east; bus 4/4A covers the final leg in about 8 minutes.

3. Cycling / walking

National Cycle Network Route 41 skirts the town via the Lias Line. Exit at Technology Drive and follow signed lanes to Somers Road. Secure hoops sit by reception—bring a good lock.

1. A426 60 → 40 → 30 drops by Cawston Lane

Typical slip‑up – Average‑speed cameras record late braking.
Quick fix – Spot each sign early, ease off and engine‑brake to settle your speed before the drop.

2. Rugby Gyratory spiral

Typical slip‑up – Five exits and fast buses cause last‑second lane‑drift.
Quick fix – Read painted arrows 100 m out, stay under 25 mph, and commit confidently.

3. Somers Road parked vans

Typical slip‑up – Single‑file squeeze; many learners fail to give way.
Quick fix – Scan two van‑lengths ahead, pick a gap early, and signal decisively before proceeding.

1. About Rugby Test Centre

A quiet cul‑de‑sac start helps calm nerves. Examiners love bay‑parking in the on‑site yard, while parallel jobs often happen on Oliver Street. First pull‑out is into a 30 mph bend—practise smooth second‑gear roll‑offs.

2. What to Expect on the Day

Bring your provisional and arrive 10 minutes early. You’ll:

• Read a 20 m number plate
• Answer one “show me, tell me” question
• Complete one reversing manoeuvre (bay or parallel)
• Possibly do an emergency stop
• Spend about 20 minutes on independent sat‑nav or sign‑led driving

Examiners watch mirror–signal–manoeuvre closely at every A426 merge.

3. After You Pass

With a 46% pass rate, celebrate—but keep learning. Practice on the A45 or M6, and consider Pass Plus for added motorway confidence. Compare telematics insurance while your premium is low.
