Anyone else learning to drive just now? I have my second test tomorrow!!

[moneyworries9]

I say I have my second test tomorrow but it's actually my 3rd. I sat my first test 8 years ago though.

I failed a couple of weeks ago and now have to deal with the nerves & stress all over again 😩 I feel ready but it's just difficult knowing that it's such an easy test to fail.

Is anyone else going through this just now? I have my fingers and toes crossed that tomorrow will be my lucky day 🙏🏼

Bump

Thanks Annunaki ☺️* *

I'm feeling less nervous so far than I did the night before the last one. Hopefully that's a good thing? I've actually got a 2 hour lesson tomorrow before the test so there's time for a good drive around and a run through all the show me tell me's etc.

I've done 4x11 hour blocks with this instructor. That's on top of all the hours I had last time round. I just feel like this is hanging over my head until I get my pass (whenever that may be).

I hope it doesn't take too much longer for you. It's an expensive business, this learning to drive 😅

Good luck today. I passed on my second attempt. It took 8 years, 5 instructors and a huge number of lessons.

I have a good feeling about today for you. You will pass.

Wanted to wish you luck today, I failed first time, and a good friend gave me the tip of having the window slightly open to keep cool and calm.
Worked a treat passed second time...

Thanks so much for the supportive messages. I'll update you all afterwards. The test isn't until 3.30 so a while to wait. I hope today is my day 🙏🏼

What I found really useful was my lessons running up to my test were done in a test format driving a route that my test might take I.e. we drove to the invigilators office and set off from there after show me tells me. I passed with 2 minors (one was a stall and I was sure I'd failed!).

Good luck for today OP. I passed first time a few years ago after four months of lessons. A good instructor is worth their weight in gold, regular lessons at the same time each week really helped my confidence. Also having a couple of practice tests before the real thing.

Hope all goes well! Just remember to stop before the lines at a junction, go slowly (so if it’s a 30 zone just drive at 25, fuck drivers behind you) and don’t let anyone let you out! A friend of mine failed recently because a driver let him go when it was the other drivers right of way...

I PASSED 😃

3 minors! Doesn't seem real. I'm over the moon.

Thank you all.

Congrats OP! That's amazing! I just passed last year and I already can't remember how I managed before!

Brilliant news, well done

Hurray! Well done. MN knew you could do it. Have fun driving on your own and enjoying all the freedom that it brings.

Congrats OP!

Congrats OP!
Ann what happened??

Oh that’s terrible! Lucky no one got hurt! Will insurance pay out so you can buy a new one? Is it windy where you are? Just wondering how the heck the tree fell
