Test centre address: Lloyd Land Rover, Pinnaclehill Industrial Estate, Lee Forbes Way, Kelso, Scottish Borders TD5 8DW
Kelso's driving tests start from the Lloyd Land Rover showroom on the Pinnaclehill industrial estate, next to Sainsbury's off the Pinnaclehill roundabout on the south east edge of the town. It's a small centre, and learners come from Kelso, Jedburgh, Coldstream, Yetholm, Morebattle, St Boswells and Earlston.
434 car tests were taken there in a year, and it's one of the better centres to pass at: 59.2%, above the 50% across Great Britain.
The wait is one of the shortest in the country, about 10 weeks booking on your own. Duns is about 13 miles away, Galashiels about 15 and Hawick about 17.
How long is the wait at Kelso driving test centre?
If you book at Kelso on your own, the first week with a good choice of free dates is 10 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.
