About Shannon Driving Test Centre
Shannon Driving Test Centre is in Shannon, Co. Clare, using postcode V14 NH97. It is a practical option for learners based in Shannon and nearby parts of south Clare, with access through the town’s N19, R471 and R472 road network. The N19 connects Shannon with the M18, while the R471 links towards Sixmilebridge and the R472 towards Newmarket-on-Fergus. Treat these roads as useful local orientation and practice context, not as an official test route. Check your RSA appointment confirmation carefully for the exact meeting and arrival details.
Shannon may suit learners living locally or travelling from Sixmilebridge, Newmarket-on-Fergus, Bunratty and the wider Shannon area. It can also be convenient for people with access from Ennis or Limerick through the M18 and N19. Choose the centre that works best for your journey, lessons and availability.
Plans use a one-time payment from €14.99, with no subscription. The checkout shows the centres, notification channels and fulfilment included in each enabled option.
Shannon Pass Rate and Statistics

Shannon’s pass rate was 57.9% in H1 2024, compared with a national average of 47.3% for the same supplied period.

Preparing for Shannon
Build practice around the kinds of driving Shannon requires without assuming any road is used on a test. The town has a mix of local access roads, regional roads and busier connections around the R471, R472 and N19. Work with your instructor on safe speed choice, clear mirror checks, lane discipline and planning well ahead when approaching roundabouts and junctions.
Give extra attention to observation where traffic joins from side roads, estate entrances or commercial areas. Clare County Council has considered traffic-calming measures around Ballycasey Avenue, Smithstown Road and Bóhar na Luachra, so make careful scanning, pedestrian awareness and controlled positioning part of normal practice. Rehearse independent driving skills too: following signs, responding calmly to changing traffic and correcting safely if you take a wrong turn.

Earlier Appointment Guidance for Shannon
Irish Driving Test Finder is independent of the RSA, which controls all official Shannon appointments and availability. Notify lets you save Shannon, your preferred dates and times, then sends an instant text when a potentially suitable RSA slot is detected. That means you do not need to keep refreshing the RSA MyRoadSafety booking platform yourself, which can be helpful because available slots may be taken quickly.
If you already hold an RSA appointment, optional AutoBook allows you to authorise rebooking when a matching Shannon slot appears. It can act quickly while that slot remains available, but it cannot reserve, hold or guarantee an appointment. Depending entirely on RSA availability and your saved choices, an earlier slot could bring your test forward by days, weeks or sometimes months.
