Hi I have a driving practical booked in field place worthing ( temporary address's from lancing ) we live 2 hours away. I had to book this one as no other tests available. I am travelling down a few days before to get familiar with the area. Has anyone had there test here? Any advice would be hugely hugely appreciated! What's the area like any key.areas ?

Look up the videos of tests, they will show you the main points they test, the main problem areas : eg next town to us the video shows : they often test you on this roundabout and to increase speed to 50 mph and then at the sign down to 30.

Practice driving in queues. The A27 is just one big queue through Worthing.

Hope it goes ok

Agree about the queues and good luck. Was there the week before last.

The drive into field place is 5mph, which is suprisingly hard to do! Also, theres a wierd exit where you go half way across a road then onto the roundabout. Practice bay park in the carpark there. Also go onto the a27 - lots of traffic and roundabouts.

Thank you so much ladies. Seriously so helpful. Trying to google earth the area as much as possible too. I can see two youtube videos from this test centre and yes can see the 5mph . Indeed not easy to consistently drive at that speed. All of your advice is so appreciated.

Is there any complicated roundabouts junctions at all ? A27 is there lots of speed changes ?
