The Brighton Theory Test Centre is located at 1 York Place, Brighton BN1 4GU. It serves learners across the Brighton area and is one of the DVSA-approved centres where you can sit your theory test.
The test routes around the centre cover a mix of residential streets, dual carriageways, and roundabouts — so it pays to spend a few hours practising in the area before your appointment. Examiners look for safe, confident driving, smooth observation, and good independence on the road.
