Yeah i passed there. Its fine....lots of little roundabouts so just remember to slow down and look at each one (the type that are painted on the road).

If you go mid afternoon on a weekday the roads are nice and quiet too.

Good luck

yeah my sister did and passed

less traffic, although streets can be quite narrow apparantly (if parked cars there) so potential difficulties if another car is coming towards you

GOOD LUCK!!

Most likely, as schools come out as early as 15:00hrs and then you have the hundreds of business staff which escape from 16:30. You'll probably catch last of lunch break, but most people I'd imagine walking down from the business district to the high street.

I know the area quite well (my parents live next door).

I passed in the wood. It far simpler than say mill hill although the roundabouts can be tricky.

I would book it early in the morning during the rush hour because if you do it at that time, they dont take you dont the dual carriageways due to the rush hour. Easier to pass :biggrin:

I failed up at Stevo, then passed at borehamwood 12 days later, and I put a lot fo that down to how much nicer the examiners were, makes such a difference!

Congrats!
I also passed with 3 minors.
The guy said i went over the 20mph speed limit, but because i slowed down he said i was ok. Otheriwse it would have been a serious had i done it at Mill Hill or Watford!!!
