Worst chances
The DriveTest Centres at these locations offer you some of the worst chances of passing your G1 and G2 road tests. They all have failure rates greater than 40%, which is a bit intimidating. This all makes sense, however since the driving conditions at these locations are tough – the roads are much busier, traffic is usually packed (especially during rush hour) and the streets themselves are trickier to navigate through. Also, examiners tend to be less lenient in more populated urban areas such as these. The first four locations in particular are notorious for their high failure rates.
