Read with care

Raheny: no shows and tests not conducted

Raheny's 50.0% pass rate uses the 7,917 car tests delivered, with 3,960 passes. Of 9,013 recorded outcomes, 341 were no shows and 755 were not conducted or abandoned.

7,917 car tests is enough for the car figure to be stable from month to month, but it still reflects who sat the test here, how much they had practised and the local roads, not only how strict a tester is.

How to read a centre's figures beside the national picture, and what the test checks, is in the driving test pass rates guide.
