Don’t get discouraged Mia! So many people fail their first test. I failed mine twice because of anxiety, and then during my last test, the instructor was making small talk with me so I wasn’t as anxious and it worked and I passed with nothing wrong. I was so happy and relieved when I passed! It’ll be ok Mia! You will get there!
Well done Mia - and don’t worry that you failed it has happened to a lot of us out there, I’m 27 and still haven’t passed after 3 tries 😅Remember to calm your nerves and feel confident, you got this! ☺️
Me too am 27 and failed more than three times and I went to the doctor actually got told I should not drive because I cannot multitask due to my autism I cannot focus on many things at the same time
It took me 6 times to pass my test so I feel Mia!! Changing gears was the most terrifying thing ever until you get used to it. Practice as much as you can and you will improve!! Proud of you for trying!
It’s so nice to see Mia can come home and openly tell you about it and you really give her the time to listen to her and comfort her🥰 I failed three times before finally passing - I knew I could drive but driving tests made me soo nervous! It’s so much different during a test but she’ll get there! I was so worried to come home and tell my parents because I knew they would be really disappointed in me☹️ yours and Siennas reaction was so lovely and genuine - it’s so nice to see that failure isn’t something to be afraid of❤️
I know it’s frustrating about the 30 one when you should have been going 60. But when you mentioned your scared it is probably a good thing that you didn’t pass because being a confident driver and feeling comfortable at the required speed is what creates the safe roads. 🙂 Don’t worry Mia, it takes time. Wait until you do pass, and your driving alone for the very first time. That’s another new ball park! 😂
I just want to add … Darren, Georgie, Sienna .. you’re all so sweet and supportive. The love and understanding is outstanding. You’re such a beautiful family.
Darren such wise words for Mia - Mia you will pass next time don't beat yourself up - it will give you such freedom by being able to drive - you will do it and it doesn't matter how many times you take it - but you will pass! X
Keep moving forward and don't give up. I know that you can do this mia. I am 37 years old and when I was in high school I failed my driving test 3 times and then I just gave up and said that I didn't want to drive. When I turned 35 years old I had an opportunity to become a manager at my job, but it required me to have my driver's license. I went and got my permit and then practiced really hard and that same year I got my driver's license. If I could get my license at 35 after not being behind the wheel for 17 years I think that you can get it too. Keep practicing you got this. I wish you all the best.
My advice for passing your test would be to do lots of mock tests, different sat nav routes around the test centre with your instructor. Practice driving outside of your lessons 🙂 There's also loads of useful learner driving videos on UA-cam.
Mia the best thing you can do is book your test again for a few weeks. I had lots of lessons with my driving instructor and failed twice with him then he told me driving wasn’t for me and to give up. I never gave up and went with a new instructor and passed first time with him and even though I’ve been driving 15 years now I still get a buzz when I pass the old instructor on the road. I’m deaf in one ear and almost blind in one eye and I did so you 100% can do this. Sending love 💕
Well done Mia for even taking the step to do your test. I would recommend taking lessons every week or atleast every 2 weeks up until your test as there’s no limit on how many lessons you can take. Thats what I done and by the time I went for my test it felt normal and I didn’t have the anxiety around driving only around the test as normal. Good luck for next time and I think it’s so great you haven’t got discouraged. Love you all💗
Don’t be disheartened Mia! I passed the second time and I wasn’t learning in a busy london. Eventually all the changing gear and things, comes second nature to you, you won’t even think about it, you’ll just be cruising around forgetting about all this stress now. Keep going! All the best drivers fail the 1st time 😁 Keep going. You got this girl!
It took me 3 times to pass my test and even on the 3rd try I thought I’d failed and I actually hadn’t! Always best to ignore your nerves and be confident in yourself!
Don’t worry Mia it took me 3 times to pass my test and my leg was shaking so much I couldn’t push down the clutch but finally I passed , you will do it !!! ❤️
It's totally okay to fail your first time! Not many people actually pass on their first go. Your first go is a learning curve. I passed on my second go (failed the first time by crossing a double solid line while turning left) and it was stressful but at the same time I knew what to expect more. I actually had a more serious examiner and less nice on my second go which made me feel like I wasn't doing well, but I actually ended up passing. You'll do well next time Mia, we will all be keeping our fingers crossed 🥰
Don't be disappointed Mia! There are so many people who fail first time (I did) and it can be for the smallest thing. When you're in that situation it can be stressful and overwhelming and you may do things you wouldn't usually do. I passed the second time with 1 minor despite the first fail on something silly. I also had a much nicer and friendlier examiner the second time which I think helped so much. Try watching driving videos on youtube as well, even in the background to get you used to things you should and shouldn't do, even when you're not able to be physically practicing. Keep going and you can do it!!
I passed on my 7th attempt, tried both manual and automatic. It’s a great learning curve every time and you will gain more knowledge through your lessons and tests. You got this! There is no rush ❤
It’s okay Mia I failed 3 times! Twice getting my G2 and once getting my G, there’s G1 (beginners written test) G2 (normal roads test) G (highway road test) you have 5 years to pass them before having to start over…the tests can be hard and intimidating but you’re not the only one! Don’t give up! It gets better and easier ❤️
Keep having lessons every week/fortnight and you will get there. Best thing I ever did was bought my car before I had my test, I practiced every day and went out with family & I felt a lot more confident and passed then! Good luck! You will get there 💕
I’m in the US and took my driving test at 15 with an automatic car. It’s a piece of cake to pass, and honestly I wish they’d have made it more difficult because it was super scary actually getting on the road by myself for the first time. I attempted to learn how to drive manual in my 20’s and could not for the life of me get it down, so I can’t imagine having to test with one, even after 30 hours of lessons! Everything is so technical when you’re first starting out, and it takes a lot of practice to get a feel for a manual. It seems like a lot of commenters from the UK are in the same boat, so don’t beat yourself up. You’re learning something difficult and you WILL get it down. Now you know what to expect for next time, and all of this trial and error will just make you a better driver in the future. Don’t give up, Mia!
All the best people pass second time! I failed my first test in the first 5 minutes but had to carry on and do the whole thing... In my second, the examiner started talking to me about the weather so I knew I had passed! 🤣 Don't give up, it's a vital life skill and you'll be so grateful once you've done it x
I failed my first test in January and then passed my second test last week with no minors! It’s definitely worth the wait! If u don’t want to wait as long then get booked onto a pass me fast course! That’s what I did and it really helped me build confident! Ps. I’m still scared of 5th gear ahaha
Sorry to hear that you failed. It's really tough learning to drive, yet alone in London! Like Mia, I'm still learning in London; it's terrifying! The first time I drove on a dual carriageway (max speed is 50mph where I am) I broke into a sweat and my palms got all clammy as well. I 100% understand the fear, Mia 😩 after some lessons, I feel quite overwhelmed by it all. There's a lot to take in all at once. You've got this Mia #GirlPower
So glad you're not giving up, you've got this 💪🤗 Do it now while you're young, I started driving lessons in my 20s but gave up and now I'm a passenger princess because I'm to scared to learn again and plus the cost factor.
Hi I have my driving test tomorrow and I really appreciate this video and the bravery that Mia has because some people would not have shown this unless she passed and I love how she dealt with it. If it makes you feel any better, on my mock test I had 4 serious faults so you're definitely not alone. Good luck for your next one ❤
Mia, you’re so strong and incredibly brave. It is so common to not pass immediately. It just wasn’t the right time is all. I have faith you will get it ❤ don’t forget you’re so capable
Aw Mia ❤ That feeling having to come back and tell everyone waiting is horrible. Took me 3 tires, by the 3rd time I didn't tell anyone I just said I was away for a double lesson in prep for the test ❤ You've got this!
Aww well done to Mia on trying and fair play to her on driving manual also! I’m currently learning to drive manual also and not too sure if I’ll pass first time either. At least she knows what it’s like now!
I have so much faith that you’ll smash it next time Mia! It’s a really good experience to have, and you’ll know what to expect for next time. Definitely keep at it!❤ I completely understand the struggle to book the test, I’ve had to reschedule mine a few times because I don’t feel ready - I was advised to check for test locations early in the morning or late in the evening (until 11pm)
I did my 1st test 2 weeks ago and failed but waiting to book my next test to try again. Doesn't matter how many times it takes to pass, we will get there! X
Everyone’s journey is different in learning to drive, take your time it’s a massive responsibility not only to your own but others safety, you will get there and it will all be worth it xx
Mia you really tried your best. I had my driving test this morning and I passed first go in an manual. I felt all the emotions you were feeling at the start, it’s totally normal. It’s not the only time you can take your test. Give it another go, you’ve got this, you will get it eventually. Lots of love from Australia🥰🥰
if she's terrified to go faster than 30mph then she wasnt ready to pass the test anyways. she needs to be comfortable with going fast because going slow on faster roads is just as dangerous as speeding
I think it's only a small percentage of people that actually pass their driving test first time, so well done Mia for the determination to try again! 🚙👏 One thing not mentioned was Mia skydiving from a plane a few years ago, how many people would have the guts to try that and at such a young age, that takes courage! 🛩️😰🎉 Also the reasons for not wanting to drive can vary, yes some people just lack confidence which can be overcome, but my daughter has always had difficult with spacial awareness & isn't even confident riding a bike, to the point where its been dangerous, so for this reason she has never wanted to drive. She's brilliant in many other life achievements, but driving on the road isn't one of them. x
I loved all the family encouragement! Especially from D and G! But also the everybody but EXXEPT MIA attack Mia 😂😂😂😂 from Karma. Gosh, that was so hilarious. I love driving manual. It's still most common over here in Germany... I hope that some not too far off day you will enjoy it, too, Mia...
Mia I also failed my first test over 10 years ago. To make things worse I crashed my moms car on my first attempt to drive on my own. That made me feel so insecure that I didn’t have a car or drove for nearly 10 years! Now I am 32, I am driving in the UK (which is on a different side of the road from what I initially learned) and I am planning to buy my second car which is a big step for me so don’t worry! Take your time and you will get there!
You done your best Mia that's what counts and don't give up. My daughter is learning in a automatic cuz she finds it easier that a manual. I'm with you Georgie, a passenger princess 😊 x
You are absolutely AMAZING, Mia! Just because this time didn't work out does NOT mean next time won't! I know it's more common in the UK to drive both automatic and manual, but most Americans don't know how to drive a manual car AT ALL! I don't, that's for sure! It's totally awesome that you have learned both and brave of you as well! You should be PROUD of yourself for doing the test, learning what to improve upon, and still pushing yourself to try again! I'm in my 30s, and I just want you to know that you have just encouraged me to try to learn how to drive a manual because it's something I've always wanted to do but never felt brave enough to do! Like you said, "In an automatic, you don't have to worry about shifting gears," and that's exactly why I never wanted to drive a manual, but if you can do it at 18, I think I could do it in my 30s! Just keep your head up, keep learning/improving, and "Focus on the good!" You got this! 😊❤ By the way, I just love how the whole family is so supportive, caring, encouraging, and loving (plus so much more) towards each other and to others as well! 💓
Well done for trying Mia! Don’t give up, loads of people fail their first test. I passed third time, it’s so easy to get faults and sometimes it’s other drivers, not you. I don’t know if you had your instructor with you while taking your test but for my first 2 i did, then for the 3rd he stayed at the test centre and waited and i think that really settles my nerves not having that extra person watching. I would recommend. Keep going ❤
Hey Mia listen don’t give up you can do it , you don’t learn how to walk or do anything before failing it’s okay see this as a lesson now you know what things you should look out for next time and when your driving . If the examiner make you nervous think of it as they want you to pass , they are just making sure you can drive safely , I would say don’t delay it because i felt even more motivated to do it , find a cancellation company that can book your test with ting two weeks there is plenty online I got mine after covid when it was packed , second of all don’t spread out your lesson when the test approaching make sure you take plenty and you feel confident and trust me you know in your gut if you feel confident. YOU CAN DO IT GIRL , BELIEVE IT, YOU ARE UNSTOPPABLE!!
Hearing Mia say 30 hours, I nearly fell out of my chair! In Australia we have to do 120 hours before we can go for our test, and we have to complete these hours within a year, you are not allowed to go for your licence before before the year is up or if the hours are not done. I understand the anxiety of driving , I get it sometimes when the weather is bad. But I couldn’t not drive, I would feel like I have no independence. Goodluck Mia💕
In some states in the US, no practice hours/driver's ed are required. I just took the driving test when I turned 17. And it isn't at all difficult to pass.
In Canada, it's a graduated system. When you're 16, you can take a test to earn your G1 Learner's Permit. To be able to drive alone, if you took classes, 8 months later you can take your G2 road test. If not, it's a year later. Another year later, you can take your G road test and become a fully licensed driver.
I am from the US and I had to take drivers education to get a permit first. Then I did three behind the wheels, this was at 15. Then at 16 I could take the drivers test. I turned 16 back in April 2002.
Fizz fam warms my heart so much, they focus on the positive things and always give the best advice. I binge watch your videos even repeat some in most cases. I absolutely love your channel it truly has changed my perspective on life. Always stay positive and focus on what’s good Showing love all the way from South Africa 🇿🇦
Happy Toby Tuesday !! 🫶 Mia you’re amazing and the fizz fam are truly so proud of you for even taking the test itself! I’m getting mine in march of next year and I need to practice for my permit test in september and I’m really looking up to you! you did you’re best and that’s all that matters! Love you Mia❤❤
I completely sympathize with Mia. I live in NYC and got my license back in March. It’s so scary learning to drive in a busy city. But once you have that confidence it becomes so much easier. Plus, statistically those who have to take the test more than once are better drivers!
Dont worry Mia, i failed my first driving test with 2 serious faults and kept taking lessons and passed the next test with flying colours. The important thing is to not let it put you off, you've done it once before now so know what to expect!
You got Mia, I failed my 1st test and past the 2nd one and I had to wait 9 months in between as I was working away at the time. You will ace it next time just relax and drive when ever you can.
Darren you are amazing!!! I am going through the same thing as mia i have failed for the first time and you have helped me a lot your words are soo wise keep doing what you do because you are amazing and really helping not only me but the other fans DON'T WORRY MIA YOU CAN DO THIS, EVERYONE IS HERE SUPPORTING YOU!!1 I AM GOING TO TRY AGAIN IN A COUPLE DAYS TIME PLEASE CAN EVERYONE PRAY I DO GOOD ❤👍🙏🙏🙏🙏
I had my driver's license test almost a year ago, and I have to say that I definitely feel you, Mia!!! It's hard for everyone when they start.... imagine that it's been 10 months since I passed mine, and I am still driving only when someone is beside me, even though I'm very comfortable at driving at this point!!! Well, when I started having lessons, everyone told me not to be afraid of the car or of crashing cause if I kept worrying about that, I would never be able to drive properly!!! That's something you should think about!!! Try not to overthink that much and try to find confidence in yourself!!! It's alright, maybe this is a sign that you were not ready yet!!! Take your time to think about it and go for it when you are 100% ready, when you feel most comfortable!!! Also, you are right, it is important that you should have your lessons closer to each other!!!! That way it will be easier for you, because you will be more used to it!!! Don't rush, it's ok to take your time!!!! Having to book your exam that long ago is sure really a problem.... Im not from the Uk, so luckily, I only had to book it 2 weeks ago... P.s. When you finally pass your exam and take your diploma, don't leave driving!! You should often go for a ride, because if you leave it, it will leave you!!! Believe me!!!
Mia congratulations, you gave it your best shot and that’s all that matters. Definitely keep going with learning, cause your determined and I know you can do it. Look for cancellations too and try and get one if you want to do it really soon ❤️❤️
My dear Mia, congratulations for taking the test...! Be proud of that.. I'm proud of you and so are your family and everyone that watches this channel.. and I agree that you should go in an automatic car.. I believe you'll feel more relaxed. Changing gears all the time is just another thing you have to think about ❤❤❤ I believe in you, you've got this Mia ❤❤
Don't worry Mia you hopefully can smash it next time don't let this fail hold you back, sometimes you fail in things you really wished you didn't but that's what makes you go back stronger. I am also learning to drive myself currently revising for my theory I have done 2 tests now and failed I felt so annoyed with myself at the time especially for my second as I was 2 marks off !!! but I am not going to let this hold me back because also seeing you post about taking lessons and learning to drive is pushing me more as I know that is where I want to get to, I want to be at the stage so I can do my test. You have been a big inspiration to me and lots of other girls out there as well as the rest of your family. I relate a lot to you (cough one being short girls😅) but jokes aside I have watched you and your family just after Karma was born and you have grown a lot since then. You are such an amazing influencer and so are the rest of your family don't let this one set back bring you down because you got this we all believe in you 💗 also you may already know this but you can still drive your family car if you wanted to even if you failed. You just need to make sure your insured on that car and either Darren or someone who has had their licence I think its either 3 or 5 years
Well done Mia for giving it a go! I passed my driving theory and practical on the third try but now looking back it made me a better driver so I’m glad! I was also a very nervous driver but after you pass and drive around you do get so much more confident. You can do it!! ❤ xx
You can do it Mia, I took me several times to pass mine, you are such a strong, positive and determined person, you can do , if you don't succeed try try and try again xx
don’t give up! i was in a car crash and 2 days after i got out of the hospital i had a driving lesson, i didn’t let anything stop me from doing what i desperately wanted to do and have passed 2 weeks ago only a month after the incident, you really can do anything putting your mind to it! ❤
Well done for trying Mia! Don’t get discouraged though. I had to take my driving test 3 times before passing. I used to be terrified of driving and had so much anxiety doing the tests and even just driving myself when I had passed. 4 years later and I now looove driving! Practice practice practice. Before you know it, it becomes like second nature and you’ll be able to drive without even thinking about it.
Mia don’t worry about not passing your first test I found it very helpful as I was less nervous the second time as you know what to expect! Chin up keep going :)
Don’t worry, Mia! It took me 3 times to pass & I ended up switching to automatic (best decision I made!). I also recently moved to the US & had to take my test all over again & all those feelings came back. You’ve got this💗
The crash courses are amazing! I did 15hours with pass me fast and I had all the lessons a week before my test (they book your test for u and they have slots really close so u don’t have to wait as long) and I passed last Tuesday!
Hi Mia! So sorry you feel discouraged - please try to not do so ❤️ it’s such a personal thing how you learn, also situations happen and that’s okay 😇😊 back on the horse saddle, you were so confident about it 😍
Passing my driving test is my proudest achievement in life! (I’m 21 now) I passed on my 5th test when I was 18 as the nerves just got to me before. I love driving now. Have as many lessons as you can and don’t worry that someone else can learn quicker. I got a manual license as I wanted to be able to drive camper vans and its so worth it. Manual license is also useful if you go abroad and hire cars as they sometimes don’t have auto options or only accept a full license. Wishing you the best of luck next time. Also watch DGN driving on UA-cam!! Xx
Don’t worry Mia it took me 3 times to pass my driving test because of my anxiety and nerves! Trust me it will get better think of it as a learning curve ❤ proud of you x
You’ve got this Mia!!! I know driving is scary. When I took my test my leg was shaking so much that I accidentally let up on the brake at a stop light! 😬 I can’t wait for the day that you pass! Good luck and keep going. ❤😁 Also I live in the United States so I don’t know if it is normal to drive manual cars in the UK or not but how can they expect you to pass a test with a manual?! I have been driving for over three years now (automatic) and I would definitely still fail the test with a manual.
It took me 3 attempts to pass my test! The best thing I did was not tell anyone I was going for my 3rd test, that way I had no pressure on me at all as if I failed I wouldn’t even have to tell anyone, but I passed with flying colours that time! Also don’t worry about going fast, remember no matter what speed you go the examiner can press the brake at any time so you can pretty much never crash on a lesson/ test. And once you pass it’s like learning all over again as the rules for lessons and tests are so strict! So don’t stress too much, driving in lessons and tests is 10x more stressful than normal driving. Good luck ❤
My 25 year old brother used to drive like a grandma when he was first on his learners. Holding the wheel tight and drifting when he changed gears and it was so funny. He is much better now and is going for his test soonish :D
Happy Toby Tuesday! Can I please get pinned love u guys so much!❤
Happy Toby Tuesday!! 🥳🥳

Don’t get discouraged Mia! So many people fail their first test. I failed mine twice because of anxiety, and then during my last test, the instructor was making small talk with me so I wasn’t as anxious and it worked and I passed with nothing wrong. I was so happy and relieved when I passed! It’ll be ok Mia! You will get there!
The exact same thing happened me x
I failed mine yesterday and I think it was because I was so scared 😂
Same here!
I failed mine 3 times passed on my 4th try
Am taking this step forward probably will take lisence by next year thanks for u advice 💖
Well done Mia - and don’t worry that you failed it has happened to a lot of us out there, I’m 27 and still haven’t passed after 3 tries 😅Remember to calm your nerves and feel confident, you got this! ☺️
Me too am 27 and failed more than three times and I went to the doctor actually got told I should not drive because I cannot multitask due to my autism I cannot focus on many things at the same time
I didn’t get my license until I was 27. Everyone gets theirs eventually ❤
It took me 6 times to pass my test so I feel Mia!! Changing gears was the most terrifying thing ever until you get used to it. Practice as much as you can and you will improve!! Proud of you for trying!
I'm only 17 and got my license first try u should just give up Mia
Same! It took me 6 times as well. DO NOT GIVE UP MIA❤️
STOP BEING RUDE! SHE SHOULDN'T GIVE UP!
@@bredaoneill5010 if you don’t have anything nice say, simply don’t comment at all!
What a rude comment passing first time doesn't make you a better person
It’s so nice to see Mia can come home and openly tell you about it and you really give her the time to listen to her and comfort her🥰 I failed three times before finally passing - I knew I could drive but driving tests made me soo nervous! It’s so much different during a test but she’ll get there! I was so worried to come home and tell my parents because I knew they would be really disappointed in me☹️ yours and Siennas reaction was so lovely and genuine - it’s so nice to see that failure isn’t something to be afraid of❤️
I know it’s frustrating about the 30 one when you should have been going 60. But when you mentioned your scared it is probably a good thing that you didn’t pass because being a confident driver and feeling comfortable at the required speed is what creates the safe roads. 🙂 Don’t worry Mia, it takes time. Wait until you do pass, and your driving alone for the very first time. That’s another new ball park! 😂
100% ❤
Yup! I used to be so scared to go the speed limit but the more you practice it rlly is like riding a bike and you get so comfortable
I just want to add … Darren, Georgie, Sienna .. you’re all so sweet and supportive. The love and understanding is outstanding. You’re such a beautiful family.
Darren such wise words for Mia - Mia you will pass next time don't beat yourself up - it will give you such freedom by being able to drive - you will do it and it doesn't matter how many times you take it - but you will pass! X
Keep moving forward and don't give up. I know that you can do this mia. I am 37 years old and when I was in high school I failed my driving test 3 times and then I just gave up and said that I didn't want to drive. When I turned 35 years old I had an opportunity to become a manager at my job, but it required me to have my driver's license. I went and got my permit and then practiced really hard and that same year I got my driver's license. If I could get my license at 35 after not being behind the wheel for 17 years I think that you can get it too. Keep practicing you got this. I wish you all the best.
My advice for passing your test would be to do lots of mock tests, different sat nav routes around the test centre with your instructor. Practice driving outside of your lessons 🙂 There's also loads of useful learner driving videos on UA-cam.
Mia the best thing you can do is book your test again for a few weeks. I had lots of lessons with my driving instructor and failed twice with him then he told me driving wasn’t for me and to give up. I never gave up and went with a new instructor and passed first time with him and even though I’ve been driving 15 years now I still get a buzz when I pass the old instructor on the road. I’m deaf in one ear and almost blind in one eye and I did so you 100% can do this. Sending love 💕
Dont give up Mia. Book another test. Take your lessons closer to the test date. You are a smart confident young lady. You got this!!!
Well done Mia for even taking the step to do your test. I would recommend taking lessons every week or atleast every 2 weeks up until your test as there’s no limit on how many lessons you can take. Thats what I done and by the time I went for my test it felt normal and I didn’t have the anxiety around driving only around the test as normal. Good luck for next time and I think it’s so great you haven’t got discouraged. Love you all💗
Don’t be disheartened Mia! I passed the second time and I wasn’t learning in a busy london.
Eventually all the changing gear and things, comes second nature to you, you won’t even think about it, you’ll just be cruising around forgetting about all this stress now.
Keep going! All the best drivers fail the 1st time 😁
Keep going. You got this girl!
It took me 3 times to pass my test and even on the 3rd try I thought I’d failed and I actually hadn’t! Always best to ignore your nerves and be confident in yourself!
Don’t worry Mia it took me 3 times to pass my test and my leg was shaking so much I couldn’t push down the clutch but finally I passed , you will do it !!! ❤️
It's totally okay to fail your first time! Not many people actually pass on their first go. Your first go is a learning curve. I passed on my second go (failed the first time by crossing a double solid line while turning left) and it was stressful but at the same time I knew what to expect more. I actually had a more serious examiner and less nice on my second go which made me feel like I wasn't doing well, but I actually ended up passing.

Don't be disappointed Mia! There are so many people who fail first time (I did) and it can be for the smallest thing. When you're in that situation it can be stressful and overwhelming and you may do things you wouldn't usually do. I passed the second time with 1 minor despite the first fail on something silly. I also had a much nicer and friendlier examiner the second time which I think helped so much. Try watching driving videos on youtube as well, even in the background to get you used to things you should and shouldn't do, even when you're not able to be physically practicing. Keep going and you can do it!!
I passed on my 7th attempt, tried both manual and automatic. It’s a great learning curve every time and you will gain more knowledge through your lessons and tests. You got this! There is no rush ❤
It’s okay Mia I failed 3 times! Twice getting my G2 and once getting my G, there’s G1 (beginners written test) G2 (normal roads test) G (highway road test) you have 5 years to pass them before having to start over…the tests can be hard and intimidating but you’re not the only one! Don’t give up! It gets better and easier ❤️
Keep having lessons every week/fortnight and you will get there. Best thing I ever did was bought my car before I had my test, I practiced every day and went out with family & I felt a lot more confident and passed then! Good luck! You will get there 💕
AWW! Koa eating the apple was too adorable. Hes grown so much
Well done Mia I remember when you were only 12 you’ve grown up so much and are absolutely stunning as always ❤
Good luck for Mia. I hope she did well. Good luck Mia.
Don’t worry Mia, some things just take time!
Love you guys so much. TOBY TUESDAY!!
Happy Toby Tuesday Anna 🥰❤️
I am really nervous when I get some else cars xx
mia, i’ve taken my driving test twice and failed both times, i’ve had my permit since 2020. we’ll get it, it’s okay to take our time.
I’m in the US and took my driving test at 15 with an automatic car. It’s a piece of cake to pass, and honestly I wish they’d have made it more difficult because it was super scary actually getting on the road by myself for the first time. I attempted to learn how to drive manual in my 20’s and could not for the life of me get it down, so I can’t imagine having to test with one, even after 30 hours of lessons! Everything is so technical when you’re first starting out, and it takes a lot of practice to get a feel for a manual. It seems like a lot of commenters from the UK are in the same boat, so don’t beat yourself up. You’re learning something difficult and you WILL get it down. Now you know what to expect for next time, and all of this trial and error will just make you a better driver in the future. Don’t give up, Mia!
All the best people pass second time! I failed my first test in the first 5 minutes but had to carry on and do the whole thing... In my second, the examiner started talking to me about the weather so I knew I had passed! 🤣 Don't give up, it's a vital life skill and you'll be so grateful once you've done it x
I am so proud of Mia ♥️❤️. Sending love from Australia and love your channel and keep up the great work ❤
Mia! I failed my first test a similar way and had to wait 8 weeks. Don’t stress. You’ll pass! And you’ll be a confident driver when you do
I failed my first test in January and then passed my second test last week with no minors! It’s definitely worth the wait! If u don’t want to wait as long then get booked onto a pass me fast course! That’s what I did and it really helped me build confident!
Ps. I’m still scared of 5th gear ahaha
Well done Mia. Sometimes you get unlucky and the examiner is stricter than others. Just try again you’ll be fine x
I love how whole family comforts Mia!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ You have family is so full of love❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Just remember you can always take it again! You’re still so so young x
Sorry to hear that you failed. It's really tough learning to drive, yet alone in London! Like Mia, I'm still learning in London; it's terrifying! The first time I drove on a dual carriageway (max speed is 50mph where I am) I broke into a sweat and my palms got all clammy as well. I 100% understand the fear, Mia 😩 after some lessons, I feel quite overwhelmed by it all. There's a lot to take in all at once. You've got this Mia #GirlPower
So glad you're not giving up, you've got this 💪🤗 Do it now while you're young, I started driving lessons in my 20s but gave up and now I'm a passenger princess because I'm to scared to learn again and plus the cost factor.
Hi I have my driving test tomorrow and I really appreciate this video and the bravery that Mia has because some people would not have shown this unless she passed and I love how she dealt with it. If it makes you feel any better, on my mock test I had 4 serious faults so you're definitely not alone.
Good luck for your next one ❤
Good luck for tomorrow! I passed on my third test (silly mistakes in first two), so no matter what happens, don’t give up!
Mia, you’re so strong and incredibly brave. It is so common to not pass immediately. It just wasn’t the right time is all. I have faith you will get it ❤ don’t forget you’re so capable
Aw Mia ❤
That feeling having to come back and tell everyone waiting is horrible.
Took me 3 tires, by the 3rd time I didn't tell anyone I just said I was away for a double lesson in prep for the test ❤
You've got this!
Aww well done to Mia on trying and fair play to her on driving manual also! I’m currently learning to drive manual also and not too sure if I’ll pass first time either. At least she knows what it’s like now!
I absolutely love how motivating and supportive Georgie is! Best mom 💖
I love you guys TOBY!! Can’t wait to see good luck Mia 🤍❤️💗
Happy Toby Tuesday Amelia 🥰❤️
I have so much faith that you’ll smash it next time Mia! It’s a really good experience to have, and you’ll know what to expect for next time. Definitely keep at it!❤
I completely understand the struggle to book the test, I’ve had to reschedule mine a few times because I don’t feel ready - I was advised to check for test locations early in the morning or late in the evening (until 11pm)
Good luck mia u got this cant wait to watch till the end to find out ❤
Aww my mom heart 😭 Sending huge hugs and lots of love to you, you got this Mia! Stay strong 🥰
I did my 1st test 2 weeks ago and failed but waiting to book my next test to try again. Doesn't matter how many times it takes to pass, we will get there! X
Good luck for your next test Chloe 😊❤️
I’m so proud of Mia ❤️
Everyone’s journey is different in learning to drive, take your time it’s a massive responsibility not only to your own but others safety, you will get there and it will all be worth it xx
Hope you’ve had a great TOBY Tuesday!! Can’t wait to watch! It’s my birthday in 4 days, on Saturday (27th Of May)!! ❤❤🎉
Happy birthday Hannah! ❤️❤️
Thank you!
This has made me feel a lot better about my driving.. feels like a never ending marathon!
Mia you really tried your best. I had my driving test this morning and I passed first go in an manual. I felt all the emotions you were feeling at the start, it’s totally normal. It’s not the only time you can take your test. Give it another go, you’ve got this, you will get it eventually. Lots of love from Australia🥰🥰
if she's terrified to go faster than 30mph then she wasnt ready to pass the test anyways. she needs to be comfortable with going fast because going slow on faster roads is just as dangerous as speeding
I think it's only a small percentage of people that actually pass their driving test first time, so well done Mia for the determination to try again! 🚙👏 One thing not mentioned was Mia skydiving from a plane a few years ago, how many people would have the guts to try that and at such a young age, that takes courage! 🛩️😰🎉 Also the reasons for not wanting to drive can vary, yes some people just lack confidence which can be overcome, but my daughter has always had difficult with spacial awareness & isn't even confident riding a bike, to the point where its been dangerous, so for this reason she has never wanted to drive. She's brilliant in many other life achievements, but driving on the road isn't one of them. x
I loved all the family encouragement!
Especially from D and G!
But also the
everybody but EXXEPT MIA attack Mia 😂😂😂😂 from Karma.
Gosh, that was so hilarious.
I love driving manual.
It's still most common over here in Germany...
I hope that some not too far off day you will enjoy it, too, Mia...
I think this will be really helpful for everyone failing at something.
Mia I also failed my first test over 10 years ago. To make things worse I crashed my moms car on my first attempt to drive on my own. That made me feel so insecure that I didn’t have a car or drove for nearly 10 years! Now I am 32, I am driving in the UK (which is on a different side of the road from what I initially learned) and I am planning to buy my second car which is a big step for me so don’t worry! Take your time and you will get there!
You done your best Mia that's what counts and don't give up. My daughter is learning in a automatic cuz she finds it easier that a manual. I'm with you Georgie, a passenger princess 😊 x
You are absolutely AMAZING, Mia! Just because this time didn't work out does NOT mean next time won't!
I know it's more common in the UK to drive both automatic and manual, but most Americans don't know how to drive a manual car AT ALL! I don't, that's for sure! It's totally awesome that you have learned both and brave of you as well!
You should be PROUD of yourself for doing the test, learning what to improve upon, and still pushing yourself to try again!
I'm in my 30s, and I just want you to know that you have just encouraged me to try to learn how to drive a manual because it's something I've always wanted to do but never felt brave enough to do! Like you said, "In an automatic, you don't have to worry about shifting gears," and that's exactly why I never wanted to drive a manual, but if you can do it at 18, I think I could do it in my 30s!
Just keep your head up, keep learning/improving, and "Focus on the good!" You got this! 😊❤
By the way, I just love how the whole family is so supportive, caring, encouraging, and loving (plus so much more) towards each other and to others as well! 💓
So sorry you were unwell Mia. I hope you feel better 🌸 you’ll get your license soon! Keep going!
Well done for trying Mia! Don’t give up, loads of people fail their first test. I passed third time, it’s so easy to get faults and sometimes it’s other drivers, not you. I don’t know if you had your instructor with you while taking your test but for my first 2 i did, then for the 3rd he stayed at the test centre and waited and i think that really settles my nerves not having that extra person watching. I would recommend. Keep going ❤
Hey Mia listen don’t give up you can do it , you don’t learn how to walk or do anything before failing it’s okay see this as a lesson now you know what things you should look out for next time and when your driving . If the examiner make you nervous think of it as they want you to pass , they are just making sure you can drive safely , I would say don’t delay it because i felt even more motivated to do it , find a cancellation company that can book your test with ting two weeks there is plenty online I got mine after covid when it was packed , second of all don’t spread out your lesson when the test approaching make sure you take plenty and you feel confident and trust me you know in your gut if you feel confident. YOU CAN DO IT GIRL , BELIEVE IT, YOU ARE UNSTOPPABLE!!
Hearing Mia say 30 hours, I nearly fell out of my chair! In Australia we have to do 120 hours before we can go for our test, and we have to complete these hours within a year, you are not allowed to go for your licence before before the year is up or if the hours are not done.
I understand the anxiety of driving , I get it sometimes when the weather is bad. But I couldn’t not drive, I would feel like I have no independence.
Goodluck Mia💕
In some states in the US, no practice hours/driver's ed are required. I just took the driving test when I turned 17. And it isn't at all difficult to pass.
In Canada, it's a graduated system. When you're 16, you can take a test to earn your G1 Learner's Permit. To be able to drive alone, if you took classes, 8 months later you can take your G2 road test. If not, it's a year later. Another year later, you can take your G road test and become a fully licensed driver.
I am from the US and I had to take drivers education to get a permit first. Then I did three behind the wheels, this was at 15. Then at 16 I could take the drivers test. I turned 16 back in April 2002.
Georgie pretending to be a car crashing in the background…😂😂😂
Fizz fam warms my heart so much, they focus on the positive things and always give the best advice.
I binge watch your videos even repeat some in most cases. I absolutely love your channel it truly has changed my perspective on life. Always stay positive and focus on what’s good
Showing love all the way from South Africa 🇿🇦
Happy Toby Tuesday !! 🫶 Mia you’re amazing and the fizz fam are truly so proud of you for even taking the test itself! I’m getting mine in march of next year and I need to practice for my permit test in september and I’m really looking up to you! you did you’re best and that’s all that matters! Love you Mia❤❤
Ahhh can’t wait to watch this love you fizz fam ❤❤❤
I completely sympathize with Mia. I live in NYC and got my license back in March. It’s so scary learning to drive in a busy city. But once you have that confidence it becomes so much easier. Plus, statistically those who have to take the test more than once are better drivers!
Dont worry Mia, i failed my first driving test with 2 serious faults and kept taking lessons and passed the next test with flying colours. The important thing is to not let it put you off, you've done it once before now so know what to expect!
You got Mia,
I failed my 1st test and past the 2nd one and I had to wait 9 months in between as I was working away at the time.
You will ace it next time just relax and drive when ever you can.
Darren you are amazing!!! I am going through the same thing as mia i have failed for the first time and you have helped me a lot your words are soo wise keep doing what you do because you are amazing and really helping not only me but the other fans
DON'T WORRY MIA YOU CAN DO THIS, EVERYONE IS HERE SUPPORTING YOU!!1
I AM GOING TO TRY AGAIN IN A COUPLE DAYS TIME PLEASE CAN EVERYONE PRAY I DO GOOD
❤👍🙏🙏🙏🙏
Mia YOU GOT THIS, don’t give up, we believe in you ❤️love you, your my inspiration to do my driving test ❤
Don’t be annoyed you are amazing and don’t give up ❤
I had my driver's license test almost a year ago, and I have to say that I definitely feel you, Mia!!! It's hard for everyone when they start.... imagine that it's been 10 months since I passed mine, and I am still driving only when someone is beside me, even though I'm very comfortable at driving at this point!!! Well, when I started having lessons, everyone told me not to be afraid of the car or of crashing cause if I kept worrying about that, I would never be able to drive properly!!! That's something you should think about!!! Try not to overthink that much and try to find confidence in yourself!!! It's alright, maybe this is a sign that you were not ready yet!!! Take your time to think about it and go for it when you are 100% ready, when you feel most comfortable!!! Also, you are right, it is important that you should have your lessons closer to each other!!!! That way it will be easier for you, because you will be more used to it!!! Don't rush, it's ok to take your time!!!! Having to book your exam that long ago is sure really a problem.... Im not from the Uk, so luckily, I only had to book it 2 weeks ago...
P.s. When you finally pass your exam and take your diploma, don't leave driving!! You should often go for a ride, because if you leave it, it will leave you!!! Believe me!!!
you can do it Mia! I’ll be having my test some point soon and I’m awfully nervous but we can do this! what will be will be and we’ll keep persevering❤
Mia congratulations, you gave it your best shot and that’s all that matters. Definitely keep going with learning, cause your determined and I know you can do it. Look for cancellations too and try and get one if you want to do it really soon ❤️❤️
6:50 omg I love koa he's so cute ❤️❤️❤️
Remember Mia never give up all your family and fan's love you lots ❤️❤️❤️
My dear Mia, congratulations for taking the test...! Be proud of that.. I'm proud of you and so are your family and everyone that watches this channel.. and I agree that you should go in an automatic car.. I believe you'll feel more relaxed. Changing gears all the time is just another thing you have to think about ❤❤❤ I believe in you, you've got this Mia ❤❤
It's alright Mia, don't give up! You'll pass next time xx😊
Don't worry Mia you hopefully can smash it next time don't let this fail hold you back, sometimes you fail in things you really wished you didn't but that's what makes you go back stronger. I am also learning to drive myself currently revising for my theory I have done 2 tests now and failed I felt so annoyed with myself at the time especially for my second as I was 2 marks off !!! but I am not going to let this hold me back because also seeing you post about taking lessons and learning to drive is pushing me more as I know that is where I want to get to, I want to be at the stage so I can do my test. You have been a big inspiration to me and lots of other girls out there as well as the rest of your family. I relate a lot to you (cough one being short girls😅) but jokes aside I have watched you and your family just after Karma was born and you have grown a lot since then. You are such an amazing influencer and so are the rest of your family don't let this one set back bring you down because you got this we all believe in you 💗 also you may already know this but you can still drive your family car if you wanted to even if you failed. You just need to make sure your insured on that car and either Darren or someone who has had their licence I think its either 3 or 5 years
there’s so much pressure to pass first time, there’s nothing wrong with it taking more than one try cx
i love how you all have such a positive attitude towards things ❤
Well done Mia for giving it a go! I passed my driving theory and practical on the third try but now looking back it made me a better driver so I’m glad! I was also a very nervous driver but after you pass and drive around you do get so much more confident. You can do it!! ❤ xx
Good try though Mia !! Only the best people past second time 😉 learning to drive is so tough you will get there keep giving it your best shot !
You can do it Mia, I took me several times to pass mine, you are such a strong, positive and determined person, you can do , if you don't succeed try try and try again xx
don’t give up! i was in a car crash and 2 days after i got out of the hospital i had a driving lesson, i didn’t let anything stop me from doing what i desperately wanted to do and have passed 2 weeks ago only a month after the incident, you really can do anything putting your mind to it! ❤
Well done for trying Mia! Don’t get discouraged though. I had to take my driving test 3 times before passing. I used to be terrified of driving and had so much anxiety doing the tests and even just driving myself when I had passed. 4 years later and I now looove driving! Practice practice practice. Before you know it, it becomes like second nature and you’ll be able to drive without even thinking about it.
Mia don’t worry about not passing your first test I found it very helpful as I was less nervous the second time as you know what to expect! Chin up keep going :)
Don’t get discouraged Mia I think if you practice more and try again you will pass wishing you all the best!!💗😊
Don’t worry, Mia! It took me 3 times to pass & I ended up switching to automatic (best decision I made!). I also recently moved to the US & had to take my test all over again & all those feelings came back. You’ve got this💗
Good try Mia!! Never give up! You’ll do amazing next time! Love you ❤️❤️
Good luck Mia I hope you pass your test today and you deserve it your such a wonderful person
The crash courses are amazing! I did 15hours with pass me fast and I had all the lessons a week before my test (they book your test for u and they have slots really close so u don’t have to wait as long) and I passed last Tuesday!
Hi Mia! So sorry you feel discouraged - please try to not do so ❤️ it’s such a personal thing how you learn, also situations happen and that’s okay 😇😊 back on the horse saddle, you were so confident about it 😍
Mia will get it, good things take time and patience to achieve and if you believe you can achieve.
Passing my driving test is my proudest achievement in life! (I’m 21 now) I passed on my 5th test when I was 18 as the nerves just got to me before. I love driving now. Have as many lessons as you can and don’t worry that someone else can learn quicker. I got a manual license as I wanted to be able to drive camper vans and its so worth it. Manual license is also useful if you go abroad and hire cars as they sometimes don’t have auto options or only accept a full license. Wishing you the best of luck next time. Also watch DGN driving on UA-cam!! Xx
Darren is the greatest supportive, motivating dad 💖
Don’t worry Mia it took me 3 times to pass my driving test because of my anxiety and nerves! Trust me it will get better think of it as a learning curve ❤ proud of you x
You’ve got this Mia!!! I know driving is scary. When I took my test my leg was shaking so much that I accidentally let up on the brake at a stop light! 😬 I can’t wait for the day that you pass! Good luck and keep going. ❤😁
Also I live in the United States so I don’t know if it is normal to drive manual cars in the UK or not but how can they expect you to pass a test with a manual?! I have been driving for over three years now (automatic) and I would definitely still fail the test with a manual.
Happy Toby tuesday!! Well done Mia for trying!
It took me 3 attempts to pass my test! The best thing I did was not tell anyone I was going for my 3rd test, that way I had no pressure on me at all as if I failed I wouldn’t even have to tell anyone, but I passed with flying colours that time! Also don’t worry about going fast, remember no matter what speed you go the examiner can press the brake at any time so you can pretty much never crash on a lesson/ test. And once you pass it’s like learning all over again as the rules for lessons and tests are so strict! So don’t stress too much, driving in lessons and tests is 10x more stressful than normal driving. Good luck ❤
My 25 year old brother used to drive like a grandma when he was first on his learners. Holding the wheel tight and drifting when he changed gears and it was so funny. He is much better now and is going for his test soonish :D
