Test centre address: Grantown-on-Spey Fire Station, Woodside Avenue, Grantown-on-Spey, Morayshire PH26 3JR
Grantown-on-Spey's driving tests run from the fire station on Woodside Avenue. It's one of the smallest centres in the country, with examiners brought in from Inverness or Elgin only now and then, and learners come from Grantown, Aviemore, Carrbridge, Nethy Bridge, Boat of Garten, Dulnain Bridge, Cromdale and Tomintoul.
Only 137 car tests were taken there in a year, and it's one of the better centres to pass at: 56.9%, above the 50% across Great Britain.
Kingussie is about 24 miles away, with Elgin and Inverness each about 25 or 26.
How long is the wait at Grantown driving test centre?
If you book at Grantown on your own, the first week with a good choice of free dates is 24+ weeks away. That's about the same as most test centres.
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.
