Get directions

The Kingswood driving test centre is at the Siston Centre on Station Road, on the east side of Bristol near Warmley. Bath has no centre of its own, so learners come from Kingswood, Hanham, Fishponds, Staple Hill, Downend, Emersons Green, Warmley, Yate, Keynsham and Bath.

It's one of the busiest centres in the country, with 14,863 car tests taken there in a year, and the pass rate is 51.9%, close to the 50% across Great Britain.

The wait is shorter than at most centres, about 18 weeks booking on your own. Bristol's other car centre, Avonmouth, is about 9 miles away on the far side of the city.

You don't have to wait that out or keep checking yourself. We usually find learners an earlier test date within 1 to 2 weeks of signing up, and often within a few days. The test itself may still be a few weeks away, but it's earlier than the date you'd get booking on your own.
