How to Practise Bridgend Driving Routes on Exam Routes App

Practising the driving test routes is one of the best ways to boost your confidence and skills before the test. However, you should not rely solely on the routes, as they are not fixed and can vary depending on the examiner and the situation. You should also practise driving on different types of roads and in different conditions, such as wet, dark, or busy. You should also be prepared to deal with any unexpected situations, such as roadworks, diversions, or emergencies.

Here are some tips on how to practise Bridgend driving test routes effectively:

1. 1. Use a reliable, updated device to download and follow the routes. Ensure the device is fully charged and has a clear and audible voice.

1. 1. Practise with a qualified instructor or a supervising driver with a valid driving licence and is over 21 years old. They can give you feedback and guidance on your driving and point out any mistakes or areas for improvement. They can also help you with the test’s manoeuvres and independent driving part.

1. 1. Practise at different times of the day and on different days of the week, including weekends. This will help you experience different traffic flows and road conditions, as well as different hazards and challenges. You will also learn how to adapt your driving to the situation and drive safely and responsibly.

1. 1. Practise the routes more than once, but not too often. You should practise the routes enough to get comfortable and confident with them, but not so much that you memorise them or become overconfident. You should also practise driving on other roads and areas that are not included in the routes, as you might be asked to drive on them during the test.

1. 1. Practise the routes with a positive and calm attitude. You should practise the routes as if you are taking the test, but without putting too much pressure or stress on yourself. You should focus on your driving and enjoy the process rather than worrying about the outcome. You should also celebrate your achievements and learn from your mistakes rather than dwelling on them or being too hard on yourself.

One of the key factors that can influence your test result is the test routes, which the DVSA examiners select to test your skills and knowledge on different roads and situations.

If you are taking your driving test at the Bridgend test centre, you can prepare for the test routes by using the Exam Routes app, which provides the official DVSA routes for most modern devices.
