1. By car

Meet the examiner at The Scarinish Hotel, PA77 6UH on the B8065 seafront. Use the public bays opposite the hotel while you check‑in.

2. By public transport

• Ferry – CalMac Oban ↔ Coll ↔ Tiree sails daily in summer (about 4 hours); the pier is 2 km from Scarinish.
• Ring‑and‑ride bus 450 meets most ferries on request and will drop you at the hotel door.
• Flights – Loganair operates Glasgow ↔ Tiree twice daily; taxis cover the ten‑minute hop to Scarinish.

3. Cycling / walking

Tiree forms the western end of the Hebridean Way cycling route. Covered stands hide behind the hotel beer‑garden.

1. B8065 single‑track passing places

• Typical slip‑up – refusing to reverse for uphill traffic and blocking the road.
• Quick fix – choose a passing place early, reverse slowly if downhill, give a friendly wave.

2. Scarinish ferry queue lane

• Typical slip‑up – entering the marshalling area too fast and mis‑judging distances.
• Quick fix – slow to walking pace, follow marshals’ directions and keep clear gaps.

3. Crossapol straight 40 → 20 buffer

• Typical slip‑up – failing to slow and triggering the SID.
• Quick fix – cover the brake at countdown markers, aim for 18 mph at the terminal sign.

1. About Isle of Tiree Test Centre from a Learner’s View

The mobile centre meets candidates outside Crossapol School, PA77 6UP. Kerbside starts face Atlantic winds. A warm‑up loop via Tiree Airport car‑park calms clutch legs.

2. What to Expect on the Day

Parallel parking at Scarinish Co‑op common. Independent driving circles the Ring Road past Gott Bay then Balephetrish—sand drifts and sheep test anticipation. Emergency stops usually set on Reef Road’s straight; mirror checks near Crossapol crossroads.

3. After You Pass

Photocard arrives 10‑14 days later due to ferry mail. Pass Plus often adds an Oban mainland session for dual‑carriageway exposure.
