Classified petite-ville, Martigues sits in 13 in a region where driving switches from seaside to Alpine summits in under an hour. Connections rely on the A7 to Lyon and Paris, the A8 to Aix, Nice and Italy, and the A51 to Sisteron and Gap. Summer changeovers, especially the black Saturdays in July and August, can generate jams over 100 km long on the A7 and A8. Driving in Martigues combines centre streets, peripheral housing estates and axes to neighbouring towns. Gaze control and priorities in residential zones structure a large part of learning.

For the practical BSR - AM License test, department 13 shows an average waiting time of about 63 days (national average) between registration and exam date.

In parallel, the highway code theoretical test (ETG) can be taken with several state-approved operators. La Poste, one of the most widespread, offers an official search tool allowing candidates to book a session close to home.
