1. By car

The mobile test unit meets outside Kingussie Shinty Club, Ruthven Road PH21 1EN. From the A9 slip road, follow the B970 into town and turn left onto Ruthven Road—free gravel parking beside the pavilion.

2. By public transport

• Rail – Kingussie station (Inverness ↔ Glasgow Queen Street main line) is 0.5 miles north‑west—walk 10 minutes via High Street.
• Bus – Stagecoach 39 & M39 run hourly between Aviemore and Newtonmore, stopping on Ruthven Road at the shinty park gate.

3. Cycling / walking

The Highland section of National Cycle Network Route 7 follows the Insh Road just south of town; bike hoops sit outside the Folk Museum on King Street.

1. A9 junction slip (Ruthven)

• Typical slip‑up – joining at 40 mph and forcing fast traffic to brake.
• Quick fix – use full slip, build to 55 mph, mirror‑signal‑merge.

2. Town‑wide 20 mph trial

• Typical slip‑up – creeping to 25 mph on High St.
• Quick fix – 3rd gear, hold 18 mph, watch repeaters.

3. Rail bridge single‑lane lights

• Typical slip‑up – stopping on amber and blocking arch.
• Quick fix – decide early: go if green, else stop, wait for green.

1. About Kingussie Test Centre from a Learner’s View

Kingussie’s rural DVSA site operates beside the Shinty Club on Ruthven Road PH21 1EN. It has no learner bays; starts are kerbside with hikers milling near the station. A calming loop past the High School roundabout settles nerves.

2. What to Expect on the Day

Parallel parking on Ardbroilach Road is frequent; independent driving typically follows the B9152 to Aviemore then loops single‑track roads by Ruthven Barracks—watch deer. Examiners set emergency stops on the Highland Wildlife Park straight and watch mirrors on the narrow High Street dog‑leg.

3. After You Pass

Digital pass upload brings the photocard in about 10 days. Pass Plus over A9 Drumochter Summit and A86 Loch Laggan route builds winter confidence.
