Tom 14195 Posted November 26, 2015 Share Posted November 26, 2015 6 x two hours I think but I've been out other than that and my last lesson was pretty much test standard, only small mistakes no majors so I'm confident. It's all about the day I suppose! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 24166 Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Secret to passing your driving test, I found, was to take it in a car with no controls in the passenger seat. I failed first time around in my instructor's car, which had a break peddle on the passenger side. The cunt took me on a hellish route and I failed by cutting someone up on the blue house roundabout after being stuck on it for what felt like an eternity. Passed second time around in my father's car with no minor faults. Piss easy route, all quiet roads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemmill 52014 Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 I had to really think hard about whether I passed first or second time. Getting old. Pretty sure I failed the first one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 11392 Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 A schoolmate of mine failed about 30 seconds after setting off. Instructor told him he'd failed because he hadn't put his seatbelt on. Bit harsh, but the guy is a bit of a bellend, so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex 37626 Posted November 27, 2015 Share Posted November 27, 2015 Passed mine first time. There's a bit of luck involved I reckon. My test was probably as well as I'd ever driven up until that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
