Practising for your test at Burton on Trent
Examiners at Burton on Trent reuse the same set of roads and junctions on every test. If you've driven the real routes before the day, the roundabouts, tricky priorities and speed-limit transitions won't surprise you. SteerClear replays those routes on your phone and scores you against the DVSA fault categories — observation at junctions, mirror use, steering control, lane discipline and response to traffic signals.
The app works with any car. It uses GPS, accelerometer and gyroscope data to detect harsh braking, excessive speed, poor lane positioning and missed mirror checks in real time, so you can correct mistakes the same way an examiner would.
