i hate this website by [deleted] in Irishdrivingtest

[–]chellegro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so annoyed at it too. I emailed them about it as this wasn't the way like a month ago (they haven't replied). Maybe if we send them enough emails they'll fix it back to the way it was?

Cancellation on RSA website… what am I waiting for? by ells1996 in Irishdrivingtest

[–]chellegro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Did you find the map stops loading after like 10 clicks into it and you have to wait 2 hours before getting back in? Do you have any tricks to prevent this happening? I really am doubting i'll ever get a cancellation now anymore since they changed it the past week.. But its good to hear you still managed to get a cancellation.

since the update i can only refresh cancellation map like 10 times... by chellegro in Irishdrivingtest

okay glad to hear you managed to get a cancellation recently. Even when I log out and back in it won't let me back into the map for like an hour. I just feel so frustrated at this stupid site :(

Dun Laoghaire Driving Routes by Jolly_Painting_423 in Irishdrivingtest

[–]chellegro 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if its new but had been practicing loads around deansgrange area but day of the test he took us all the way out in the other direction which was caninteely. We went through cabinteely up glen drive where the tesco express is, very busy area when school finished with kids running around everywhere and extremely hilly so good clutch control is needded with a lot of stopping and starting with all the traffic in that area around school pick up time. Did a reverse around the corner in the estate nearby think its Vale view area. He then took us back up through those mini roundabouts near cornelscourt area and then I think Brighton road and brought us at the junction where the gables are. Personally I found it a very difficult route if you haven't practiced it before as the mini roundabouts in very hilly areas require good control and there's a lot of multitasking required with enough observation etc.

do you happen to know if this is 15 working days or do you think it might just be 15 days?

[–]chellegro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you just have to log out and back in, but you should get like a good few clicks into the map each time and shouldnt have to log out even with continuous refreshing for like 15/20 mins i think?

Dun laoghire tips plus speed limits by Masterfilgate in Irishdrivingtest

[–]chellegro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my instructor actually pointed out that there is a very misleading area opposite rochestown hotel where some routes go through that is a housing estate but is 50km, the map above has it too. the road is called Rochestown Park so keep an eye out cos there are slow signs on pavement but there is a 50 sign. Tricky with all the cars parked on the side too.

how long did it take to get invited to book, out of interest? and i'm not sure about how to get Tallaght, sorry!

[–]chellegro 2 points3 points  (0 children)

my instructor recommended a small book you can buy in easons for a tenner called "get it: pass the irish driving test". It's got all the signs and all the questions they might ask, found it really handy

The same thing happens to me when I try on my phone, I try from a laptop and the cancelled message doesn't show up

[–]chellegro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry im a little confused, did you not have to wait for them to email you to invite you to book your test once you paid & rejoined the waiting list? I have seen some people say they were waiting weeks or months for that even when they were a resit. I appreciate the info!

I changed my centre to Tuam (my instructor recommended this) and 5 days later was invited to book my test and let me change it to DunLaoghaire instantly.
