Questions about Hexham
Are these the official Hexham test routes?
No. DVSA doesn't publish test routes, and examiners can use any roads near the centre. These practice routes use the real roads around the centre, so you'll practise the junctions, roundabouts, crossings and speed limits you're likely to meet.
What does the game mark?
Mirrors, signals, lane position, speed, junction observation, pedestrian crossings, manoeuvres, hill starts, the controlled stop and hazard response. You get a driving test report at the end, with minor, serious and dangerous faults like the real test.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. It runs in your browser on phones, tablets and computers, with on-screen pedals and indicator buttons. On a computer you can use the keyboard or a game controller.
