Test centre address: Crown Buildings, Napier Street, Cardigan, Ceredigion SA43 1ED
Cardigan's driving test centre (Aberteifi in Welsh) is at Crown Buildings on Napier Street, in the town. It's a car only centre, and learners come from Cardigan, Newcastle Emlyn, Fishguard, Crymych, Aberporth, New Quay, Llandysul and north Pembrokeshire.
It's a small centre, with 1,192 car tests taken there in a year, and one of the harder ones in the country to pass at: 41%, below the 50% across Great Britain.
The wait is one of the shortest in the country, about 7.6 weeks booking on your own. Carmarthen is about 22 miles away and Pembroke Dock about 30.
How long is the wait at Cardigan driving test centre?
If you book at Cardigan on your own, the first week with a good choice of free dates is 7.6 weeks away. That's shorter than at most test centres, where it's around 23.4 weeks.
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.
See how that compares with the wait at every test centre in the country.
