OH MY GOD I'M GOING TO FAIL.....WAAAHHHHH, BAAAASSSSTTTTAAARRRRDDD.
Who decided that reversing around the corners should be in the test...SADISTS, that's who.
And if they'd just let me cross my hands a little bit...do the testers actually drive in the city, or do they fly them in on helicopter to make us all feel like tools 🙁
I now plan to have many lessons.....i hate driving tests.

Lone Knight, how do you fail 3 times? Thats just bad driving.
Off topic, but I think cyclists need to pass drivers tests too. They would have to take them young as well since in most states, it is illegal to ride a bike on a sidewalk....
Originally posted by huckleberryhoundIf your instructor was any good then he should have taught you a technique to make reversing around corners very easy. Mine taught me a technique that never seemed to fail. If your instructor seems to be not very good, bin him and get a new one. Lessons are after all ,tantamount to extortion, and you should expect the very best for the money you pay.

Originally posted by jimslyp69I've been driving for a year on my own already mate. Over here the provisional/full licence thingy isn't enforced very much, partly due to the length of the waiting lists for tests, and partly due to the fact that the police have a lot more pressing things to fill their time with.

Originally posted by huckleberryhoundI used to have an MG, and I would reverse up the road at about 35, pull the break and jam it into second making a James Bond turn.

I often wonder why my transimission finally gave out.

Originally posted by huckleberryhoundI give lessons for a small fee, I must warn you that I do like to drive really fast(80 to 90 MPH) and then suddenly turn left into a controlled skid until I'm going the way I was just coming from. If I am real good I get to do that 400 times before the other 49 cars with me do.

Originally posted by huckleberryhoundMy grandfather learned how to drive when he had to get a friend (who had been driving) to the hospital in an emergency. After that experience he took a driving test and passed. He didn't know how to turn left, but he was lucky and only had to turn right. Those were the times!
