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.
| Quarter | Module 2 | |
|---|---|---|
| Tests | Pass rate | |
| Apr–Jun | 74 | 68.9% |
| Jul–Sep | – | 84.3% |
| Oct–Dec | – | 78.7% |
| Jan–Mar | – | 79.7% |
