They keep changing/updating the routes and had to take some out due to the A1 roadworks. The DVSA doesn't publish the routes so we instructors only find out the routes by either reviewing our dashcam footage after tests or sitting in on tests. There's usually about 15 different routes.

Thanks

Do certain test routes come up at different times or is it all random

@@stevenfarrage6835 generally random but some routes might not be used at busy times.

Thanks

No, your instructor should be able to show them. These videos are simply an aid to understand how to negotiate the more tricky parts.

There are no full routes, these videos are only suggestions on how to navigate the trickier sections found on some routes.

With the greatest respect, you should be sceptical how people who have failed their test describe why. If you drive that route, as you're approaching the double roundabout you will see a sign on the left saying the left lane is for taking the A184 Gateshead, and A185 to Newcastle, and the right lane for A185 to Blaydon. Then as you get to the 3 lanes in-between the 2 roundabouts, the left lane markings say left to Gateshead, the middle lane markings say right to Newcastle and the right hand lane says right to Blaydon. This video shows the lane to use to get to the Scotswood Bridge (Newcastle) and is 100% correct. Who should you trust more, a driving instructor with nearly 20 years in the job and over 50 years driving experience or a new driver who failed their driving test?

Cheers, I've just added 4 more, this time with commentary.

These are not full routes, just parts of routes showing the more dificult sections

No, just how to cope with this part of the route but this has been changed since I recorded it. See the top comment.

The roundabout at Sambuca/KFC isn't used now, this route now heads towards the Scotswood Bridge

I believe this route is no longer used but it's still useful to know. of the 3 lanes between the double roundabout, the left goes left towards A1 south or Axwell Park, the right-hand lane you keep to the right and exit into the right which will take you towards Blaydon (there's a video for this) leaving the middle lane in which you stay to the left around the roundabout which takes you towards the Scotswood Bridge. HTH

If you read the sign on the left and the markings on the road it tells us to use the right hand lane to go to Blaydon, Ryton & Prudhoe so as we are going to Blaydon we use that lane. Hope that helps.

There's no audio on any of these videos but all have captions telling you how to do each one.

is it real test?@@KD88RET

@@TravelRavi It is a part of a test route.

Hi there I learnt a lot from your videos,can you please make a video on market lane roundabout third exit,I failed my test last week on that roundabout,and that was the only mistake I did,can you please explain its third exit from an exit before Lidl,please please please,that roundabout is in gateshead test route.

Glad you found it useful.

It's my daughter and her car, she lets me have a play though. She used to race karts and is a proper petrol-head.
