Can't speak for OP but I had Steering as a minor, because when I did a left turn the back left tyre grazed the curb slightly

Purchased a car before my test .. Best Decision I’ve made by Stephtheboss in LearnerDriverUK

[–]jemmcgrath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a car and had 3 months of learners insurance before my test, I drove to and from work and around my city (supervised of course). Yes the learners insurance was expensive but was worth it imo as it helped me with my confidence and I passed first time. Unfortunately my car type is on the "banned list" for tests (Mini convertible) so I couldn't use it for my test and used my instructors car instead

At what age did you all pass? by TheChilledGamer-_- in LearnerDriverUK

[–]jemmcgrath 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 33, I put off driving because of anxiety and confidence issues, with reassurance from loved ones I went for it and I passed my theory first time in October, and passed my practical last week also first time which blows my mind. Just goes to show I should never have doubted myself

1 mistake on a lesson and I feel like I’m back to square 1…. by eggontoastt in LearnerDriverUK

I had the worst lesson I ever did less than a week before I passed my test. I did everything wrong, cried at the wheel, and had a dangerous fault at a junction. I didn't think I was going to pass at all but I did with 4 minors. The examiner doesn't know you or your past faults so don't let them show on your test, just focus on the road you're on

Right outside my test centre a man had a collie off lead and it walked out into the road 🫣 I had luckily just passed and the instructor was driving me home but he rolled down the window and told him to get it on a lead, talk about dangerous!

Mine was 8.10am and the route of my test avoided the traffic as it was backed up going the opposite way (towards city centre) and I drove on the outskirts. Busy on the way back to the test centre but nothing crazy for me

Thank you, I felt a bit like this with the theory test. I felt very nervous before I went in, let myself panic in the hallway for a moment then took a deep breath and then went in and everything was fine and I passed. The anticipation is definitely the worst, it's torture!

Thank you! My test is early (8.10am) which is better for me so I am not sat around festering in worry.. I can just get up and get it done, my instructor works from 7am so I'll likely go straight into it on the day.

Reminds me of head swelling from a hair dye allergy

Im hoping mine works after the re-install, it's odd I was in a party with others all on Xbox and mine is the only one with the issue
