Raleigh (Spring Forest Pavilion) DMV Driving Test Routes, NC

Route breakdown

Key roads

• Spring Forest Road – This is the main road of this mock route, appearing in three separate segments totalling nearly 2 miles. The route serves Spring Forest Pavilion shopping area where your test starts, so expect moderate commercial traffic with GoRaleigh bus routes 2 and 25L sharing the road.
• Falls of Neuse – A significant thoroughfare heading North, this road underwent major widening to improve traffic flow. You'll be sharing the road with around 26,000 daily vehicle trips, so demonstrate confident merging and lane positioning amongst the other road users, especially near the I-540 interchange area.
• East Millbrook Road – This east-west route passes Triangle Town Center and various shopping areas. This means steady traffic, multiple driveways, and frequent signals to navigate. Millbrook Elementary School sits along this route, so be extra cautious during school hours.
• Short Connectors – Hargrove Road (half a mile) and Atlantic Avenue (just over a tenth of a mile) offer quick practice for timely signaling and accurate steering. You'll barely settle into Hargrove before turning onto Millbrook, then later spend a brief spell on Atlantic. This sample route ends with two unmarked turns back to the starting point, so pay close attention to the directions.
