The Local Lowdown
What the Rockingham Test Routes Are Like
Test routes from the Rockingham centre run through Rockingham, Cooloongup, Waikiki, Safety Bay, Shoalwater and Hillman. In general, these are wide coastal suburban roads with clearly marked roundabouts and steady, predictable traffic. Consequently, many learners find Rockingham friendlier than inner-city centres. However, assessors still expect confident lane changes on busier roads like Read Street and Safety Bay Road, correct roundabout procedure and solid parking skills. Therefore, practising on the actual test-area roads before your PDA makes all the difference.
