    Best bet is to call a Dundalk instructor and book a lesson or 2 to run through them.

    Haven't a scooby-doo I'm afraid. Some of the other regulars might have some suggestions though. There's a 'learning to drive' forum under motors too that may be worth a look.

    Hi, there are 2 test centres in Dundalk - The Fairways and the NCT centre. The Fairways has 4 possible test routes not sure about the NCT. I have been doing the tests from the fairways recently with my instructor.

    Yes they will take you into town, just go for lessons with a local instructor, they will take you on test routes

    The ones from the Fairways kind of skirt around the outside of town, they all involve Hill Street Bridge at some stage in the test. The closest to the town you get is down Seatown. The main thing seems to be roundabouts and plenty of right hand turns. Also be aware there is a hillstart as you leave the Fairways. My main advice get a lesson with a local instructor.
