Quarter by quarter, 2025/26
DVSA publishes motorcycle results by quarter, which car tests do not get. Riding is seasonal: nationally about 40% more module 1 tests are taken between April and September than between October and March, and the national pass rate in the winter quarters runs a few points lower. Individual sites vary, and several of the busiest ones do not follow the pattern at all.
