BELVEDERE and Erith have been named as the top two worst places to learn to drive in the UK.

The study by Monkeyshake compiled data from the Driver and Vehicle Standards Agency between April and December 2021. 

The data was calculated by using four factors which are pass rate percentage and first-time pass rate percentage, the number of cancelled tests, and the wait time for a driving test.

This was then used to create a total driving test score for all test centres.
