A route-tracker tells you where you've been. DriveRoutes tells you whether you're ready, because it's built around the test itself: your centre's routes, the manoeuvres, and AI feedback on each drive.
DriveRoutes vs general route-tracker apps
Generic GPS route-trackers log where you drove. DriveRoutes is purpose-built for the driving test, centre routes, manoeuvres and AI coaching, not just a breadcrumb trail.

- Manoeuvre-linked routes
- AI co-pilot debriefs

Frequently asked questions
General trackers (RouteBuddy-style GPS loggers) record where you went on a map. DriveRoutes is built around the driving test specifically: realistic routes for your test centre, links to each manoeuvre you'll be examined on, and an AI co-pilot that reviews your drive.
What DriveRoutes actually maps
The comparison above is only fair if the routes are real. Here are test centres with the most practice routes already mapped in the catalogue, open any to see exactly what you’d be practising.
