i had my driving test today, and i failed! im absolutley gutted!! its a horrible feeling, but i wasnt as nervous as i thought i was going to be.


just gotta put in for it again, ah well

thought u guys would wanna know

It's all right I failed my first drivers test also but then I went back two weeks later and got a perfect. I'm sure you will do the same.

If at first you don’t succeed…………………


Don’t feel too bad Odd, a friend of my sister failed her test for the 8th time by reversing into a wall at the test centre before she even got on the road!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I failed my first driving test years ago! I remember I was just too nervous to pull out into traffic. Now you know what to expect for the next time. After all that I now drive for a living! Go figure!

A little hint too is use this time on your learners permit and drive around with your parents some more. Especially around the motor vehicle department where you'll be taking the test again. You'll be more familiar with the roads and traffic patterns. Also schedule the test mid mornings before lunch when there isn't as much traffic and congrestion on the road.

Hang in there, I'm sure you'll do fine and will be posting that you passed with flying colors!

I failed my first test simply because I turned into the path of an car. :doh: Pffft, that is no reason to fail someone! Hitting another car is but not almost hitting another car.

Now you know what to do, what not to do, what the instructor will be looking for, what you should be looking for.

Good luck!

My driving test is still quite a ways away but so far I've had 11 lessons and it's actually quite fun. Now I'm going to see if I can get any of my relatives to give me some extra help. Pity I cant use my parents though as my mum doesn't drive and my dad hasn't even been a year past his test yet.

Sorry to hear that your test didn't go well. Keep at it and all will be be well in the end. Get in any practice time that you can. The more experience you get the more relaxed you'll be. Nothing like the Catch 22 syndrome. Best wishes.

I've had 10 driving lessons so far and before i am allowed any more i have to pass my theory. I feel the theory is going to be harder than the actual driving test.

I have my theory test next thursday and i haven't swatted up as much as i should have.

ER, the theory is easier than u think. its all common sense. If you can try and get your hansds on the copy of the CD ROM, it really helped me when i did mine. i got 31/35 which was a pass, it runs out in August though so if i havent passed by then ill have to do all that again!



GOOD LUCK xx
