The Results of my SECOND Driving Test are in!!!

[Batman's Superior Cousin]

A failure, gah

It's as if the Government doesn't want drivers on the road anymore!!!

I awear to you guys, alchoholism will awiat me at the end of this looooooooong road 

[Tiplodocus]

Never mind. Chin Up. Third time's a charm.

[TordelBack]

Aye, don't be too disheartened - just one of those things, and you're far from alone.  Learn from the errors on your marking sheet, and get ready go again!  Every time you do it you're going to be a better driver than the last time, so you'll knock it on the head with number three.

Driving test examiners work to quotas so you can be failed just to meet their quotas.I failed my first driving test because of some stupid C*** parked in the road at the end of a T junction and i didnt get back far enough to the left of the road as i turned the corner as i was avoiding the stupidly parked car or else i would have passed.

You have to wait 8 weeks to take the test again which isnt much good if you want to get it all over with.

[Something Fishy]

ah don't worry. I kept totally losing my composure and it took me four attempts.  The only thing that ever really got me nervous like that.

When you go for your next test just remember this.



Girls can pass this test 



Now if that doesn't give you some get up and go, I don't know what will. Above all try and RELAX when you do the test, that above everything else is the best advice, even though it's hard to relax!

[Banners]

What did you fail on? If you failed because you ran over a kitten, I have no sympathy(!)

;-)

[vzzbux]

You have my sympathise. (From someone who passed first time)

Assuming that the kitten had leapt out at you at the last minute and there was no time for an emergency stop, would you get failed for

(a) running over the kitten or
(b) swerving to avoid the kitten?

I'm not a very good driver and I don't like kittens so I'd like to think it would be (b).

[House of Usher]

I took three attempts.

[Batman's Superior Cousin]

Passed my manouvre (reversing around the GOD Famned corner) but got three majors:

1) Didn't put the indicator back on quickly after it switched itself off turing right on a roundabout

2) Parked the car opposite a parked car on a driveway

3) Despite having "right of way" to a large(ish) van, I didn't stop long enough to wait until all cars continuing to pass the turning I was heading into

[Banners]

Meh. I think most of us drivers commit those kind of 'failures' on every journey we make(!)

Hard lines - better luck next time...
