I failed my driving test, 2 minors and 1 serious, a guy let me pull out from side of road then changed his mind and I had to brake hard! :-( thanks for all the support earlier on. i'll be back later. xx
All the folk I knew who passed first time had bumps and scrapes - my ex crashed about 3 times and knocked an old lady down (she'd had a few and ran out in front of him). It took me 3 goes before I passed and I've never had an accident. More lessons will give you more experience and more confidence x
they often go out of their way to fail young men as a warning shot across their bows.....so as to make them more appreciative of what driving is about.
What a g*t! That was not your fault, if you had to brake then you should be praised for it, not penalised. I hope you pass next time, you know we are all here for you. The best drivers do not pass first time anyway.
I know exactly how you feel :( Took me 4 goes and I had the same tester all 4 times... she was evil though. On the final one I just kept talking and got sympathy for banging my elbow during a manouver... probably distracted her a bit :) lol x
Stupid fool letting you out -its a given that everyone treats learners differently ....
That apart you likely would have passed -the minors were prob just highlightled cos of the 'serious' one -you'll be fine next time xx
A costly lesson to be learnt here Ben but I'm afraid that's reality, there are some nasty people out there especialy in driving, to me the Examiner should have used his / her experience & Judgment due to the fact that you had the split second initiative to brake, you should get it next time around.
I passed first time - bleedin' miracle I say, I was not worthy. But, I was 9 months' pregnant, and could hardly get behind the steering wheel. I think my examiner thought if he failed me I could well go into labour.... so he didn't.
