Tests cancelled by DVSA
In 2023–24 DVSA cancelled 3 tests at Isle of Tiree (Great Britain: 50.7). The biggest reason was weather and other acts of nature (3). These are cancellations by DVSA, not by learners; DVSA should rebook you and may owe you expenses.
Nearby centres
You can book a new test at any centre in Great Britain, but once it's booked a car test can only be moved to the three centres DVSA names for that centre. Distances here are straight-line.

Reading these figures
- The waiting time is a median for tests taken that month: half of candidates booked closer to their test date, half further ahead. It is not the earliest date you could book today, which can be sooner when tests are cancelled or extra ones are added.
- DVSA marks figures from April 2025 onwards as provisional; they can be revised at the quarterly update.
- DVSA left out the median wait for 18 of the last 24 months at this centre (gaps in the chart), usually because too few tests were taken or the centre was closed.
- DVSA publishes no pass rate for Isle of Tiree for 2025–26. It removes centres where only one examiner conducted tests, and new centres appear only after a full year.
- Pass rates are published once a year; the latest cover April 2025 to March 2026. Waiting times are monthly, to September 2026.
- The figures cover DVSA car tests only, not tests run by delegated examiners (such as some fleet and emergency service tests).
To book or move a test, use the official services: book your driving test or change your driving test on GOV.UK. DVSA explains when new tests are released. We have no link with DVSA and no access to its booking system.
