Hey Jimbo, I just wanted to say a huge thank you. I started watching all your videos about two weeks before my test, and because of that, I passed on the first try! I’d been searching for good videos to help me prepare, and when I found yours, everything finally started to click. I’m incredibly grateful for people like you who go out of their way to make things clear and accessible. So, from the bottom of my heart, thank you, man! 🙏🙏

Thank you mister Jimbo. I passed my driving test 14.10.24. My result is 109. Your video helps me a lot, because I am from Ukraine, my experience is 23 yes in a manual car, but we are driving to the right part of routes and steer on the left in cars, so it is difficult to change your habit 😔. I watched your video and it's helping me to be more comfortable. Thank you. Please do more videos with complicated parts of routes, l will continue watching . I share your video with my friends because it is easy to practice and safety on the routes if you are in a new country. I wish you are all good in your work ❤️ .Thank you 🙏.

Nowhere else to vent about this, so apologies in advance that I'm putting this on your comment section Jimbo but your vids have been a major help while I've been learning to drive. I had my test cancelled by the Marrickville Centre WITHOUT any notification, call or email. I rock up to the test today and find out it was cancelled at some point in the past day or two supposedly because of a sick instructor. I booked the test over a month in advance since I knew it would be booked out and now the area that I've been learning to drive in is entirely booked out until next year. It's beyond the pale.

@@drtyler1234 Hi mate yes that does suck. I've recently had this happen with a student. They may have rung you but the number comes up as Private and nobody answers those. Are you sure Marrickville is booked out til next year? That seems odd. Or is it they haven't allocated more tests yet? The online system doesn't distinguish between booked out and not allocated yet.

@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 It was apparently cancelled within the past two days and I didn't receive any miss calls, private or otherwise.

I don't know mate just having one of those days.

Hey man love your channel, been trying to complete my L license for a bit now and had been struggling with it due to my confidence. You have any tips on head checks while driving, I get it down pat pretty easily but sometimes miss some when I’m doing driving practice with a trainer and want to get better and more efficient at it.

Hi, Jimbo. What should i do if driving on wide unmarking road and then want to turn right? Because, in law you have to drive a little to the left of the road. Should I be more in the middle and complete the turn to the right or stay on the road that is further to the left of the road? Thanks Jimbo!

@@GhoziSulthani Hi mate if as you say it is a wide single lane road and you want to turn right, then you need to estimate the centre of the road where they would normally paint a line and position your car close to this. You don't want to be unnecessarily to far to the left when turning right.

Jimbo brother. I passed my driving test in Liverpool first go. My driving instructor was really bad, and demotivating. He kept on shouting on me, and telling me an hour before the exam. You will fail. You don't have it in you, and stuff like that. I literally, just followed your video, and I was giving it during the school time. Your videos gave me the confidence, that I am good enough. I have donated a small amount to this initiative. Please, keep the videos coming. All love to you big man ❤
