Hannah Shucksmith Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 Don't crash the car is probably your best bet Danny... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan6061 Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 Best thing to do is take it easy, try to stay calm. Think everything through properly as you do it, and concentrate. I kept messing my tests up right at the start because I was so nervous, then on my 5th I did it in the Mini and passed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Swindlehurst Posted May 31, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 Well to be honest im not even nervous cause ive gone out every night with my dad for 5 weeks and im doing it in my car and ive also had lessons in my car! so i should hopefully pass just gotta try not to be over confident!

Otacon Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 Just make sure you've had enough lessons before you waste stupid amounts of money on your test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fruitbat Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 Everyone will say pretty much the same thing, just relax and enjoy it.Dont see it as a test, see it as a drive and I am assuming you enjoy driving so enjoy the drive.At the end of the day if you fail you fail, its not the end of the world, start worrying too much and you will fail.Frooty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simpson Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 Just make sure you've had enough lessons before you waste stupid amounts of money on your test.Meh I had 7 lessons, but like danny had hours in my own car just driving around. You'll be fine, dont f**k it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simpson Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 Damn, I always thought I had the LOWEST NUMBER OF LESSONS IN THE WORLD. But you beat me by two Yea well we always have cars here that i can drive. Had been on a scooter for a year, and for my 17th got 10 lessons payed for by my parents, I soon realised that i wouldn't be able to afford to pay for many lessons on my own, f**k working my ass off for 4 hours to be stuck in a car with some twat for 1.. so yea just did it within 10! happy days.

JD™ Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 Yea, top tip for anyone learning to drive. Book your practical as soon as you can, then tell your instructor that is when you have to be ready by. Don't get fooled into waiting for him/her to say you're ready - they make no money out of you when you've passed so they will keep you learning as long as possible. Dont give them the chance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont give them the chance Yep also don't go with any motoring organisation where you HAVE to have a certain number of lessons. Think the British Motoring Assosiation insist on all "students" having 35 lessons before allowing them to take a test. This is bollocks, for me I had been on the road for a year, done a fair bit of driving before I was 17 and was comfortable on the road in a car. Clearly I am going to need less lessons than a 17yr old retarded girl who doesn't know her right from left. Also people do get trapped by not knowing when to do their test. If you can drive well and do the manouvres fine, then book your test... simple. 99% of learning to drive happens after you pass, I'm still learning! And trying to be a better driver.

Unless that was a rule they were going to bring in and scrapped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pashley26 Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 I did my theory test on the morning of my Birthday (April 21st) and passed my Practical at 11 the next morning with no lessons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash-Kennard Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 I did my theory test on the morning of my Birthday (April 21st) and passed my Practical at 11 the next morning with no lessons. dont you have to wait 10 working day before you can book your test after your theory?

Pashley26 Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 dont you have to wait 10 working day before you can book your test after your theory?Mine was booked well in advance, and I bumped it forwards through an online cancelation. If you rape the DSA site you can normally pick up a canceled test within a few days.I don't know anything about a 10 working days jobbie though ?

Captain Scarlet Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 Surely if you failed your theory then you'd lose your money for not being able to do the practical?I need to start doing lessons, motorbike is fine in the current weather but I'll be regretting it in the winter.

Ash-Kennard Posted May 31, 2009 Report Share Posted May 31, 2009 yeah, but if you cant pass the theory, you dont really deserve to keep your money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Over two years ago now I had a theory test on the monday, and an intensive driving course (3 day jobbie) booked up. I was set to take my test about two weeks after my theory, but a cancelation came up online so I did it the next day in a rush of unprepared-ness and nerves.Passed though, which was nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
