Test centre address: Hilton Hotel, 109 Waddon Way, Croydon CR9 4HH
Mitcham car driving tests are currently held at the Hilton Hotel on Waddon Way in Croydon, not the old Mitcham centre on Redhouse Road. Always check your confirmation email for the address before test day.
Mitcham is one of the busiest test centres in the country, with 15,046 car tests in a year. That made it the 11th busiest of around 320 centres.
Learners come from Mitcham, Croydon, Thornton Heath and Wallington. Morden and West Wickham are both under 5 miles away if you can be flexible, and you can see how they compare further down.
How long is the wait at Mitcham driving test centre?
If you book at Mitcham 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. Earlier dates come free as driving test cancellations, when other learners move or cancel theirs, and we watch for them on your behalf. 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.
