What to expect on the roads this route covers

3rd Avenue dominates this route, crossed four separate times for 1.05 miles combined, close to a fifth of the entire drive. Wolverine Drive and Ptarmigan Way each add roughly 0.8-0.96 miles combined across two visits apiece. With 21 turns plus a sharp left and a sharp right, this is a busy route relative to its short length.

Tips for this specific route

• Keep close track of 3rd Avenue. This route crosses it four separate times.
• Get familiar with both Wolverine Drive and Ptarmigan Way. Each is crossed twice and together they cover a large share of the route.
• Practice both sharp turns carefully. A sharp left onto Ptarmigan Way and a sharp right onto 2nd Avenue are genuine sharp turns, not gentle bears.
• Budget real time for this one. With 21 turns in under 6 miles, this rewards careful attention to street signs.
• Remember this office tests Wednesdays only. Plan practice sessions well ahead of an actual appointment.
