I passed my driving test with two minors on Monday, it was so much less stressful than I was expecting, had a lovely chat with the examiner throughout the whole test (my biggest tip for others is to do commentary driving, it helps you focus so so much) your videos were so helpful & keep them up ❤

It depends on your examiner, some people get really harsh examiners who make their test hell

@@OllieShaw-ls4uq roughly 30-35 hours, but i had literally no driving experience whatsoever so if you have some you can do it in much shorter time frame

[@Suzi-f2m]

The best and only hack is not to stress! I made a big mistake on a roundabout taking the 3rd exit on the right and I forgot to indicate right then I just knew I failed but didn’t stress myself and did the rest of my test well, guess what I passed with only 3 minors the the examiner said when I asked him how he didn’t fail me for that roundabout, he said I can drive well and may be it’s the nerves made me forgot to indicate and he wouldn’t fail me for that. I was so happy so the only hack is don’t stress yourself

[@subconsciousskin1954]

I really needed to see this comment ! My test is tomorrow and I'm terrified of roundabouts I'm hoping I don't make the error but if I do I hope I have the same luck as you !

[@stevethomas74]

Hi there - I am an advanced learner with my test HOPEFULLY next month. If I had to guess, the reason why you weren't marked down for that is perhaps your actions didn't affect any other road user or cause them to be confused? That would, to me, most likely be the case. Either way, well done and I hope I can join you (figuratively speaking) on the roads! 😃

[@DriftyWingss]

Sadly failed my first test with a 1 serious fault for judgement and 1 minor for clearance! I was driving on a narrow road with double parked cars and my examiner said I was too close to the parked cars on the left, giving me a major fault for it! In my opinion I had a decent gap still and he didn't have to say it urgently or grab the wheel, so a bit surprised it was a serious fault, but hopefully I will get it next time!

I have a little story about my driving test the night before I went to an evening football game to watch the team I support we played Notts County lost 3-0 I got the last train home at 22.30 got home at midnight went straight to bed got up at around 0730 08.00 the next morning met my instructor just after 09.00 at home drove to Newton Abbot where the test centre from my house in Paignton which is 7 miles did the warm up hour had a break went in for my test at 11.11 came back and passed it 3 minor faults and with the head examiner as well that was 27th of September 2017 7 years ago now.

[@WayneTulip-zm9gw]

I learnt something new yesterday and thought I’d share it with you all, if you’re not sure what a thick red line next to the kerb at a bus stop means, it means exactly the same thing as a thick yellow line, it’s just showing that it’s part of a red route, it means other vehicles are prohibited from stopping, only buses can stop, private hire vehicles can’t stop at 'bus stop clearways' marked with a wide yellow line by the kerb, on red routes both taxis and private hire vehicles can’t stop at bus stops marked with a wide red line by the kerb.

You only need to use the handbrake when you’re parking. Like after a manoeuvre or when you’re asked to pull up on the left. The rest is optional 😊
