Read with care

Roscommon: no shows and tests not conducted

Roscommon's 56.0% pass rate uses the 2,323 car tests delivered, with 1,301 passes. Of 2,472 recorded outcomes, 54 were no shows and 95 were not conducted or abandoned. Nationally, 7.4% of tests were not conducted or were abandoned; here the share was 3.8%.

2,323 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.
