Best of luck for your retake Nicki.
I think that was a very good try in your first test : you made very few driving errors. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

Wow you sound pretty good if you only got 2 minors. Shame about the bus but as our Biology teacher tells everyone, the people who pass second time make the best drivers (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

I've still not taken my test, I only started regular lessons since January really. Tried to book my theory but te website wouldn't let me... will try again tomorrow.
It's just expensive and pretty stressful to retake. You'll be fine though (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) |

Hard luck, Nicki. Hope next time is bus-free.
And anyway, all the best people fail first time. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) |

Don't worry about it- you'll be less nervous next time, (It took me four goes to pass, and when I did pass I had 1 less minor than would have failed me) get on that phone everyday and get a cancellation.

If you don't cut up a bus this time, it sounds like you're home and dry. Worst part of my driving test: stopped at a set of traffic lights about to turn right, 3 minutes from returning to test centre and knowing that save a complete meltdown on that return, I'd probably passed.
Good luck in May. Jo |

True! Like you Nicki, I had only a few minor errors when I did my first driving test. It was a traffic warden on a pedestrian crossing that was my downfall!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) LOL did you manage to get him?! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) |

Well done for trying.
It's not so bad, as next time you'll be even more determined to do well. |

Good luck in May. Jo I hope so, but yesterday had perfect conditions, good time, etc. So, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) True! Like you Nicki, I had only a few minor errors when I did my first driving test. It was a traffic warden on a pedestrian crossing that was my downfall!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) I did look out for pedestrian crossings. I thought I had failed at my first set of traffic lights. I was turning right, and just as I went through them, they were on amber, and then changed to red, but it must have been ok... I've rebooked my test... |
