What actually happens on a driving test? Take a look!

[@shxz17]

Really appreciate how light-hearted this video is as a lot of us will be watching this while approaching the test day and building it up into this insurmountable monster. Nice to be able to laugh about something related to the day 😂

[@aprilsummers6447]

"The one that was made since I was 12." I can't lie that was funny as it's so true. 12 year old me made up such a basic signature and it's too much of a hassle to change it now almost a decade later😅

[@ginger3532]

did you pass? any tips? i have mine in 3 weeks 😅

[@mitchib1440]

@@ginger3532 I passed! Took me 5 tries, but I passed this time with only one fault! - What I found helped me most is I did it in my own car, though I admit I'm lucky to be able to do that. (It's a Fiat 500e, so being electric meant it was easy to get it onto roundabouts without needing a huge gap) My brother is doing it in a VW Caddy because he's a wheelchair user, so I really feel for him lol - I know everyone says to not panic, and it's easier said than done. But if you're prone to anxiety, make sure to take as many meds as you're allowed. (Ask your GP if you're unsure) - Don't hype it up in your head! Your brain will pressure you into feeling stressed and you'll perform badly. It's a trap. Don't fall for it. You can always try again if you fail, it's not as bad as it sounds. - Take it one step at a time. Don't go thinking "Right, just need to pass the test". Take it more slowly than that. Instead, think "Right, the examiner said turn right at the end of the road. I'll approach slowly and take my early observations and patiently wait for a safe gap". They look for safety, not speed. I had to wait a minute or so for a safe gap on my test. Nothing wrong with that. If you can't go, then you can't go. Why rush into danger? - Study the roads near the test centre on Google Maps and practice it if you can. Near my test centre there is a nasty double-mini-roundabout that trips people up all the time. Get your mistakes out of the way first so your test can go smoothly. - Watch videos of people passing their tests or mock tests on KZbin. I promise it will help in a way you can't describe. Don't watch the dramatized videos of people failing miserably. It will make you feel worse. Just the happy ones. Take some water with you and have a sip when you pull up every now and then. Get a happy song in your head, take a deep breath, and say "Okay, here we go". Narrate what you're doing if it helps. My examiner said he enjoys listening to commentary drives. Remember they're humans too. Absolute best of luck, you've got this! (Also let me know if this sends properly, sometimes YT blocks long replies lol)

[@fullsendmountainbiker5844]

So I just wanted to ask, with the eyesight test, on very bright days I struggled to read the yellow number plates. Could I ask the examiner which colour plate I want to read from 20m?

[@DrivingSchoolTV]

Absolutely! Most test centres have a selection of plates hung up with the distance measured. If they use vehicles parked on the street you will be able to ask for a different one if you’re struggling because of colour. Best to let the examiner know you would like a white one in advance. There are lots of reasons people need a specific colour plate and they’re happy to help 😊

[@kerryannepryor7838]

Question, when checking the provisional what if you picture is expired? Address and signature the same though?

[@DrivingSchoolTV]

I’ve seen examiners accept an expired provisional license. It’s free to renew it though so it’s best to get it done and not take the risk! If you have a valid passport you don’t even need to send in a pic they take it off your passport!

[@simonrichards150]

Soooo, serious question - how exactly does one go about updating their signature on their driving licence from the one they had when they were 12? I've looked into it several times over the last few years and can't really figure it out. Picture update? No problem. Address update? Yep. Signature...? Errrrr

[@DrivingSchoolTV]

The DVLA recommend picking up a D1 form from the post office. You need to fill out the change of address section and also 'section 7' which is the signature box. They also say to write a note to go with the form just saying that the signature has changed, other wise they may over look it. Also the cost and is free 😊 hope that helps!

What in the GCSE Drama is this?! 😂

[@P4bs]

I did my test recently (14/10) and unfortunately failed. Both my instructor and I felt like it was a very weird test though as we were on the road for over an hour, and was given serious faults for things we thought would have been minors. I also got a minor for stalling even though I didn't. the examiner did state "oh no you didn't stall did you?" which took me back, he later explained that its because I took too long to go into 1st at a T junction, even though there was no gap for me to go into and I was in 1st when there was a safe gap. Overall a weird and unpleasant experience but I'm glad I had it nonetheless. Hoping for a pass on my next test as the examiner did say that the drive was amazing and that I'm a really safe and confident driver. (again, why did I fail then? bit bitter but what can you do)

damn yeah that might seem harsh but the meaning of the amber light is stop if its safe so if you could have easily stopped for it they fail you. I've had pupils done on that before it sucks because for most people amber light means send it
