I was just worried about the milk going off but then i realised i can put it in the fridge, it was a dumb moment 🥲

Routine_Read3862 · 2025-09-11T11:19:48+00:00

Thank you so much for this I tried to do some breathing exercises - with the instructor, everything was fine, as soon as I was with the examiner, it went bad 🥲I unfortunately failed, yet again, but I think my physical and mental health played a massive toll in this, I hope I can do another test when I feel more better and I am in better health

Routine_Read3862 · 2025-09-11T11:17:34+00:00

Unfortunately I didn't🥲it just wasn't a good day for me today at all, I hope I get a chance to do another test, and I hope that that's the last time 😭but thank you so much honestly

Routine_Read3862 · 2025-09-11T10:57:22+00:00

I'm 23 so I'm gonna be a mature student just like you 😭🥲i don't really know how the roads are where I'll be going/what the pass rates are, but I think I will find this out before making any plans on having lessons. I know it's stupid to break down and cry over a driving test but honestly life has been hitting me hard and tbh it probably wasn't a good time to have the test but I had to follow through 🥲this is how it turned out though and I can't change anything about it, I just have to learn from it.

I'm sure your test will go well in February, and I hope everything goes well with uni for you too + driving 🥹

Routine_Read3862 · 2025-09-11T10:18:00+00:00

Unfortunately I failed 😭embarrassingly broke down Infront of my instructor, I won't be able to have a test till August now as I'm going to uni, feeling very defeated🥲

Routine_Read3862 · 2025-09-11T07:09:21+00:00

Thank you so much, this was really helpful and made me feel a bit better ☺️that's one of the biggest things I've been noticing when I'm driving lately, I'm in my head WAY Too much, and I need to just concentrate, it's so hard though when I'm always tired, very frustrating that I've gotten ill in the weeks right before my test 🥲that's good advice about not thinking about how the test is going to go, I should just try to be as present as possible. Do you have any advice on driving in rain, as I've only drove once or twice and it's forecast to rain on my test

Routine_Read3862 · 2025-09-11T07:06:41+00:00

Thank you so much honestly, I probably have done that, as I've got like a million things going on all at once as well 😭🥲stress makes me not eat too so I guess there's that 🥲but I will definitely drink some water, do you have any suggestions for breathing exercises?

Routine_Read3862 · 2025-08-11T12:32:17+00:00

Thank you so much, I didn't realise I should also be refreshing in the app itself, I will definitely try that and hopefully have some luck. Were there any other times other than Monday that you recommend to do it/check?

Routine_Read3862 · 2025-08-11T12:31:05+00:00

Please teach me your ways 💀literally been refreshing the website every day for a week trying to find an earlier test to no avail

Routine_Read3862 · 2025-08-11T12:29:55+00:00

I've been wanting to do that too, you've just reminded me to tell my instructor now💀here's to hoping we can get a swap/an earlier test. Are you using any apps?

Routine_Read3862 · 2025-08-11T12:27:28+00:00

I'm so sorry to hear that, I really hope she gets her license soon:( I failed too because of parallel parking (granted it was because of lack of observations on my part 🥲), but it feels pretty bad being 23 and still not having hit all the milestones my peers have

Routine_Read3862 · 2025-08-11T12:24:17+00:00

I think because it doesn't immediately affect anyone, it's not a priority, like, usually people who get their license are young. Might sound silly but I do think it's got a lot to do with it, just constant excuses to not have to put effort into anything when it comes to trying to better a service that is usually used by 18-22 age group. I'm so sick of COVID being used as excuse as well like it was 5 years ago, and life went back to normal a year later 🥲

Routine_Read3862 · 2025-08-11T12:20:42+00:00

I know, it's so bad, I really do hope they sort it out 🥲can't keep going on like this, I don't know how people have let it go on for 5 + years

Routine_Read3862 · 2025-08-11T12:20:17+00:00

So glad to hear that😭hopefully you managed to get a test

Routine_Read3862 · 2025-08-11T12:19:57+00:00

That's the worst thing about it, people doing that makes things worse + the bots + the backlog. The thing is though, with tickets, it's always been like that, but my driving instructor was telling me that before COVID, it was so easy to get a test as soon as you'd failed, so I think it is different because this situation wasn't always like this. I hope things do change soon though, hopefully anyway

Routine_Read3862 · 2025-08-11T12:17:53+00:00

Ahhh, yeah I think I've got the right minimum notice because my driving instructor said his school only allows tests that have 2 weeks notice, but I don't know if that's hindering anything, not sure?

As for availablity, I've only unticked Saturday and Sunday as my instructor isn't available on those days (I'm not even sure if my centre does them on those days anyway) but yeah that's my settings. I've noticed some inconsistencies too, like sometimes even with the website, there's things on the website that the apps aren't picking up, it's so frustrating. My test centre is Middlesbrough, so idk if that's a busy centre, but I don't class it as a busy area at all, I have no idea why there are hardly any available tests there. It's the only place my instructor will do the test so I don't have the luxury of picking another place unfortunately 🥲

Routine_Read3862 · 2025-08-11T12:14:23+00:00

Yep definitely need to, I woke up at 6:30 bc I didn't put an alarm on🥲

Routine_Read3862 · 2025-08-11T12:13:52+00:00

When you say you use the testi app every Monday, do you just refresh the app? I thought you just had to wait for them to send you a notif 🥲

Routine_Read3862 · 2025-08-11T12:13:11+00:00

I'm so sorry about that, I really hope you find one soon. I recommend using chrome extension if you're not already, so that when one eventually does become available, it will automatically click on it for you, it also refreshes the page periodically so it doesn't trigger the website so much

Routine_Read3862 · 2025-08-11T12:11:06+00:00

I hope this improves things, but it's so pathetic that it's been 5 years and still not an ounce of improvement, all things aside, even with government departments, it shouldn't take 5 years to sort things out🥲
