So I've been learning to drive for around 2 yrs, with a 6 mth break.
I've failed 3 tests, the last one was about 4 weeks ago & I thought I'd done reasonably well, which I had done, only examiner gave me a serious for not looking in mirror in a lane change. However, my instructor says I'm a good driver & probably one of his best students. I was petrified of learning to drive that's why I didn't do it at 17 (I'm early 40's now!) but I've come a long way!
Anyway I'm insured to drive our car, my husbands & mine. I've been going out in ours as much as I can to get practice in, but recently whenever I drive, husband has been an absolute nightmare with me, grabbbng the wheel, arguing on nearly everything I'm doing. It's really putting me off & I can tell it's effecting my driving, he even said himself that I usually drive way better than I have been lately. He's nit-picking at everything I'm doing while driving, he never used to be as bad as this! I don't feel like getting in the car with him anymore & my next test is next week!
Although I don't feel ready myself for the test, my instructor says I should walk it, he said that last time! I don't think I'll ever feel ready for a test, my theory runs out in Jan 18, so I've only 5, 6 months & that will expire! I feel like if I don't pass before then, I may as well give up!
What worries me is my confidence has taken a battering, probably because of going out with OH, I just feel like I'm doomed for next week! Am I right in thinking It's probably best not to go out with OH in the car if it's just going to be effecting me?
