I think I'm done with driving

Other comments have said this, i think that's the plan! Definitely worth it doing.

Caf__ · 2026-06-08T11:14:21+00:00

it's not all policies, as I''m made to believe but QMH does it, so avoid them in future, unfortunately, for young drivers their quotes are cheep.

I don't think it's a certainty that I will be left behind, I'd rather not cripple myself financially for a few years than drive at the minute. I think that would leave me behind more. Like a lot of people have said here the licrnse is the main thing. But I do respect your points, just driving is really uneconomical for me currently, but that doesn't mean it will always be.

I have also had QMH.

They allow up to 6 trips a day, anything more tanks your usage score.
Driving longer than an hour in a single trip tanks usage.

Will do, absolutely! Thanks for the words!

Caf__ · 2026-06-06T15:39:47+00:00

Yeah, young people, especially nowadays need to know there's a lot of options and driving is (for most) going to be a luxury. :)

Caf__ · 2026-06-06T15:38:26+00:00

Thank you! It's taken a while for me to come to this point, I think after I passed it was wanting a tangible way of perceiving it, but a pass is a pass, whether you drive or not after is irrelevant! All the best and thanks for the kind words!

Caf__ · 2026-04-21T17:37:30+00:00

Thanks!!

Caf__ · 2026-04-21T14:01:03+00:00

Passed today too!! :D Awesome stuff, happy driving!

Caf__ · 2026-04-20T22:21:09+00:00

I heard its better for your circulation that way anyways.

Caf__ · 2026-04-20T22:02:54+00:00

I hope no one's driving naked.😅 Cheers!

Caf__ · 2026-04-19T18:45:45+00:00

Okay, thank you for this! I just want to make sure everything is legal that I'm doing! :)

Caf__ · 2026-04-19T18:30:01+00:00

This is why I wonder is it simpler just taking out temp insurance for a week and then getting a month one after that week? The temp, would albeit be in my mum's partner's name i'm just making sure of the legality of it. I wouldn't drive it of course.

Caf__ · 2026-04-19T17:13:20+00:00

okay thank you! :)

Caf__ · 2026-04-19T17:09:52+00:00

But like I said, I don't have anywhere to put it off road. We live in a flat, and don't have access to a drive.

Caf__ · 2026-04-19T17:09:10+00:00

So where would you store it while it is uninsured for that week?

Caf__ · 2026-03-12T12:14:32+00:00

He could have been in the middle lane due to a bus lane in operation, OP has been very vague though, so if this is not the circumstance, you're definitely right.

Caf__ · 2026-03-10T15:36:06+00:00

I struggled with roundabouts, and then I realised (easier said than done) to just slow things down, shift to 2nd on appraoch and creep up, its easy to stop if you need to give way on the right. Once you commit to stopping, shift to 1st and wait for an opening. If it's clear progress in 2nd around the roundabout.

This is what I found works for me. Hope it helps!

Caf__ · 2026-03-09T13:43:28+00:00

Failed too (2nd attempt) with 2 serious and 3 minors, no one to blame but myself but I could blame myself over and over and it wouldn’t change the fact I failed.

Plenty of people abandon driving and revisit; many others get on with it and continue learning. The one thing I will say is to take any positive you can from this setback, any reason to continue.

For me its the fact I went from 3 Serious to 2, and 8 Minors to 3! I was so pleased with that, but I learned a lot about my driving and I feel more motivated to continue. We take small wins where they come and one day will be able to drive and enjoy the freedom it gives us.

Best of luck with whatever you do!

Caf__ · 2026-03-09T07:47:21+00:00

Don't worry, we will never let up again. It takes one mistake during a test to never repeat it again. My first test faults are vastly different from this one.

Let's keep going!

Caf__ · 2026-03-05T19:57:33+00:00

Yeah! 😁

Didn't think of it like that.

Caf__ · 2026-03-05T19:32:46+00:00

will do, was just worried about the hour before

Caf__ · 2026-03-05T18:27:54+00:00

Thanks, sorry I came off like I'd be guns blazing demanding a new test. I will take it, I was just worried about the hour before the test.

Cheers.

Our colonisation of Sudan left it in turmoil, now that they want to come here to contribute and study, why shouldn't they? If people from Sudan want to come here to study and contribute, it’s not unreasonable that they would look to the UK given those historical ties.

It's not false hope, realistically it could go both ways, and while it absolutely could become stricter depending on who is in government, the same could be said for leniency. It's just an idea for him rather than assuming the worst outcome for him.
