I've got my behind the wheel drive test today

Im nervous, anybody got any tips?

Not joking… eat a banana. There’s something in there (not sure what it was called) that’s known to calm you down. Also, Valerian works a treat.

Good luck on your test!!

I did my road test.
My advice…just don’t block any cross walks(my bad) and always shoulder check…always. If you sty calm and remember eveything you learned you’ll be fine :smile:

Good luck! :cool:

[color=green]Hi R3TRO

In london, test usually last for 45 mins. So i will go with this. For those 45 mins, just let go of all the stress. Do everything in your time. The examiner cant fail u for being over careful. SO, if you feel like you need to wait 20 more seconds before moving off, then do so.

Good luck with ur test mate :smile: [/color]

heh yeah everybody said what needed to be said. If it is anything like it was for me here, we had to take 7 drive tests, each one hour long. The first one is definatly the hardest because you become so nervous and don’t know what to expect. But really, if you just calm down, and follow the laws, you’ll be fine. After that first test, you will get more comfortable with the instructers and you know what they like to see. Also helps if your mom or dad lets you drive around for practice, so you can get familiar and comfortable with driving. Good luck and let us know how it went!

OMG 7 hours long!!!??? That is ridiculous lollll

whoa! here it’s only 15 minutes long (for the first test) then you have to wait a year and do the highway test (which probably takes a bit longer).
But seriously just relax, and remember if you’re calm it will be a lot easier to concentrate and remember everything!
Good luck!!!

lol thx guys, i passed so YAY!!

but yeah it was only 15 mins, and thats the only test i have to do, so i guess mine is easier than all of your lol

[color=green]Hi R3TR0

Contrats man. Wow, 15 mins driving test? damn what country are u in? lollll Now drive safely :wink:[/color]

im in beautiful california the land of fruits and nuts :smile:

Congratulations!! Got a car yet? :wink:

:happy:
does a lil dance for R3tro

So how does it work down there R3TRO, can you drive all by yourself or do you need someone in the passenger seat?

yes i have a car its a int condition 2002 gray ford focus (4 door), except i think the sunroof motor just went out :confused:

yes i can drive all by myself except for midnight to 5 am, for the first year, and i cant drive anyone else under 20, unless there is someone who is licensed and 25 or older in teh car with me.

Thats like how it is here. My licence class now is a G2, which means zero blood alcohol and everyone in the car must wear a seatbelt(duh!), and if I want to drive between midnight and 5 I must have a fully licenced driver who’s had a licence for over four years. Thats the test I just did a week or two ago as well.

I don’t have a car though, but between insurance and gas prices, I’m not really letting it bother me that much :tongue:

yeah gas is wow, but i did just get a job like 2 hours ago, so thats a good thing, now i can pay for my gas :smile:

but i have to work :sad:

Wow…strict over there. Texas blows off safety…lol. When we get our permit, we have to wait 6 months before the license, or till your birthday. And with the permit, you have to have a person of 21 years of age or older in the car. After you get your license, you can drive anybody, in any number, at any time. I still have to wait the leftover of my 6 months before I get my permit…so I don’t know if theres more or less of those “laws”…lol. But its somewhere around there.

ANYWAYS…GOOD JOB R3TRO! You bastard you only had to do it 15 minutes…

Congratulations!! :cool_laugh:

I have my G2 too, but I thought you are allowed to drive between 12-5 AM…I thought it was just the G1 where you’re not allowed to do that. If you aren’t than oops lol!

lol thx ben and siiw :smile:
