My friend did that and got a major
Huh? This was literally the only thing I did wrong and I failed for it.
Every examier has a bad day, every examiner has different standards. In the end we are all human. I know it sucks because they are not the ones paying the money, but this is the way of life. @@ryaneagles3568
I failed my driving test for forgetting to check my blind spot!! What how did you only get a minor?
1. First impression is last Impression. Arrive on time, dressed smart casual
2. Have your license in your hand and mobile phone turned off
3. When name called out, greet examiner with a smile and handshake
4. Get show me/tell me questions correct
5. Drive confidently and vigilantly
Another hugely important tip : AFTER you know you have made a mistake or had one pointed out to you, continue to give your best effort. Stay focused and relaxed in the moment (slow breathing recommended) and UNDERSTAND that YOU CAN STILL PASS BECAUSE 100% IS NOT COMPULSORY. You just need to prove that you can drive safely and show an understanding of the rules. Great video tips .
Great. Thank you for taking the time to comment 👍DTC UK
This is critical advice which I always give to my pupils before test. If you dwell on a fault, you are in danger of very soon making another and the first one may not have been serious. Stay focused until the examiner asks you to turn off the engine.
I passed today!!! 😎
Good Stuff 👍Congratulations 👍⭐️👏🎉😃🍾👌Drive Safely DTCUK
I passed my test yesterday with 6 minor. All your tips were extremely effective. Thanks a million...., You are the Best!!! May almighty keep you safe.
Thank you for your kind words. Safe and enjoyable driving. DTC Driving Test Services

Learners/Instructors/Examiners who fail then pass their driving test are the better drivers long term than those who pass instantly. It's not how you fall down, it's how you get back up people.
100% agreed. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😃😃😃😃😃😄😄😄😄😄😄👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👌👏👏👏👏DTC-UK
Appreciate that Boss man. Your channels an inspiration by the way
Thank you for your comments. 👍DTC-UK😄
I finally passed my drving test to day took me 7 years money problem theory test den eyesight now i passed
Mainly good information, but there is a sense that you wan't the person being tested to massage your ego a little bit. Please remember that however competent they are, they're going to be very nervous, feeling under pressure, and also feeling a little bit intimidated. You hold their motoring future in your hands at that point. I mean this in the nicest possible way; Please consider how the student is likely to be feeling, and show some humility and understanding towards them. You were in their position once. Respect goes both ways, regardless of one's own position. And if you impress your students, they are likely to recommend you to their friends and bring you more business. Win, win for both of you.
Hello, Thank you for your comments. I understand that pupils are nervous and many do things that they would not normally do. eg Many learners do not smile at the examiners and some do throw their licence on the table. This is understandable considering the pressure.
My job is to make the candidate aware of this so they can start the driving test feeling positive and ready. Some driving examiner can be very rude when, say the pupil spends time searching for their licence or glasses.
Please keep watching and commenting. Your comments are alway welcomed. DTC-UK
thank you for your comments.. Another hour I will have my test 2nd attempt... Yes they are doing according to.books really unfriendly according to my first experience... Hope today I can make it..
Hello. Did you pass???
This is so helpful. I'm actually having my exam in an hour. I'm very confident that all will go well! 🙏🏾
Hello. Did you Pass? DTC-UK
True about being well dressed, I saw a guy in a suit while I was waiting and he looked the business
So glad I found this video before doing my test. InshaAllah now I am hopeful for my success on test day with yours instructions InshaAllah pls pray for me
Thank you, you are the first person to explain in professional way and have a great success in life.
Thank you for your comments. May we wish you safe driving for life. DTC-UK
I've just passed an extended driving test and the examiner was great he was polite friendly and happy to chat with me during the test.
👏
I'm always polite and friendly, but my first examiner was offhand with me from the outset, so it was no surprise to me that he didn't pass me that day. At the test centre second time round, my heart sank when the same examiner called my name. However, this time he was like a different person and couldn't have been more helpful. After he gave me the pass certificate and congratulated me on a great drive, I asked him if he remembered me, and he laughed and said "Did you nearly kill me?" When I replied no, he said he only remembered the near-death experiences, which made us both laugh. I guess my point is that examiners are human and have bad days too. Maybe he saw his life flash before his eyes while testing a previous student. Who knows. Don't take it personally, and keep trying.
Congratulations. Safe Driving for Life. DTC Driving Test Services.
Well I had failed my test twice miserably and after watching this video yesterday I took my test today and passed with 5 minors. Thanks for the advice dude 👍
Congratulations 👍🎉🍾😄👏DTC-UK
Thank you 😁😁😁😁

This video was so helpful I passed my driving test today in goodmayes!
👍 Congratulations 👍well done
😃DTC-UK
I watched this video an hour before my practical exam. Really helpful tips and advices. I passed my practical first time with no faults. Thank you for video!
I watched this video yesterday and weirdly followed his advice and I passed 2nd time with 6 minor. The examiner called Chris was down to earth and made me feel comfortable.
Oni Aden wow thats great!
Thanks for this vid...driving test in a few hours. Pray for me guys! Thanks.
Hi 👋 there, I watched a lot of your videos and today I have passed my practical car diving thank you very much for your help thanks again!! 🇬🇧🤗😊😁🎈🎈🎈
Congratulations 🎈🎈🎈🎈🎈😊😊🎈😊😊😊👏👏👏👏👏👍👏👍👏😄😄😄😄🙁🙁😄🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉DTC-UK
You passed because you drove in a safe, progressive manner, not how you looked. Well done.
👍
Great advice, watch this video 3 times. Once directly before my test.... Then switched my phone off. Passed my test first time with 6 minors. Thank you. Left a 5 star rating for my test center.
Hi Shak! I passed my driving test yesterday in Switzerland! I had a calm examiner. Thank you for all your tips!
Great job!
DTC has great instructors! One-stop-shop for lessons, car hire and (re) scheduling your test earlier. After taking the driving test a few times to no avail, a friend of mine recommended Shakti @ DTC. Few lessons, much-needed adjustments and I passed! Thank you!
To Smileygal. You need to be in the right gear for the turn, usually 2nd but maybe 1st if its a sharp bend. Remember the MSPSL routine. Do all your slowing on the brakes, into 2nd (block change from 4th) then you're in the correct gear to accelerate past the junction. Hope this helps.
👍
That's helped so much, thanks Mike!
Thank you brother Mike that was clearly explained and I found it useful.
2:17 give him a handshake 2020 corona
No secrets, impress your examiner by driving well 😂
That's the best way
DTC Driving Test Services goes without being said really 😂😉
Sign in the box! I cracked up at this. It I could imagine someone doing it outside of the box with such a nonchalant attitude. Throwing the card on the table is a unwritten code for insolence and I for one will not stand for it. I’ve passed already but this tips are still useful, thank you
I think examiner would rather see you behave naturally/be you, just don't be rude or arrogant obviously..
What absolute nonsense this is. You are not there to impress an examiner but to demonstrate that you are a safe competent driver. All the stuff about throwing the licence and shaking his/ her hand, Really. The examiner will ask for you by name and will be polite and courteous as is expected. In my thirty four years of teaching people to drive I have never once had a pupil throw a licence down when asked to present it. As for signing the declaration it’s all normal practice. It’s a Driving test and not a popularity contest. Examiners are civil servants doing a job and paid by you the public.
Dear Shakh,
I shall always thank god that you choose to teach.
Gopidas
impress them by being able to drive properly and not being a prat😁
And all these precautions and worries BEFORE the hardest part even began? The test itself? What a hell is life.
I failed my test and was wearing my work shorts, did I fail cuz I was too casual?😂
Ailsa Main that’s what I feel today I had yesterday
Thank you so much for your valuable tips. I am going tomprrow for my test tomorrow and I will definitely apply all of your great advice.
Hi Shak!! Thank you so much for all your great driving videos. I have passed my test yesterday in Leicester. It was my first attempt and I passed with two minor faults....your great videos helped me a lot to prepare for the test day, specially your Parallel Park!! That was absolute perfection. Thank you and please keep continue such great job!!
Thank you. Congratulations on your success. DTC UK
I saw this video recommended the last 2 times I had a test and I didn't watch it. Hopefully some of these tips will help me pass on my third in regards to my examiner. Inshallah, I'll let you know next week! 🤲🏼
I PASSED TODAY
so glad I found this video before doing my test. Great work sir. thank you for your time and effort :D
+Sajida Deniz 😄
I pass my driving test yesterday with two driving fault. Your advice is help me thank u
Firstly, Congratulations 🎈🎉🍾👏⭐️. Thank you for taking the time to comment. Safe driving for life DTC-UK
congrats :)
What a load of waffle... it’s not a job interview, you don’t pass a driving test by being nice and polite.... furthermore, you may display a conflict of interest by being too friendly. Driving correctly and safely will keep the pen off the paper.
Hello James. You're correct that " Driving correctly and Safely will keep the pen off the paper". However, being polite always helps DTCUK
Yep. Drive well and you will pass. Make a serious error and you won't. Get a good trainer who doesn't waffle on too much, and plenty of practice. All the "good impressions" are practically irrelevant.
I know right, you pay £60 for the test and they expect you to be polite and dress smartly. Should be the other way around.
@@dtc_uk I agree , manners cost nothing and can even some times make THE difference . The examiner is only human after all ;D
If a examiner dosent like you he is likely to be more pickey he is more likely to be forgiving not that he should be forgiving
mr shak am watching your video and i think it made be helpfull i got my driving test on friday
Thanks for helping me pass my test for the first Time 💪🏽
Congratulations. Drive Safely. DTC UK
National speed limit is 70 mph in case you didn’t know, two minutes later national speed limit is 60 mph.
Thanks for that Ashley
This might need updating with Covid 🤣 no shaking hands and he won’t be able to see you smile under your mask.
😐
im doing my lesson so proud of myself :) done about 9 lesson behind the wheel doing roundabouts also ive done double roundabout today but also Im taking all this information
Followed these tips and the examiner was so impressed he passed me there and then without me taking the test. He made particular reference to how well my tuxedo has been ironed and my eye contact during our nice firm handshake.
What a load of waffle.
"Give them a handshake"
2 weeks later: mass deaths of driving examiners and pupils after contracting COVID-19 from test centres.

Your last minute tips really helped me to pass my test today.

This is actually helpful unlike most of the driving test videos out there. Thank you👏
Thank you. DTC UK
thanks very much i am preparing for my practical exam
Great. Let me wish you good luck. DTC UK
I like this video, it is very useful for me to get ready for my first test, it is also clearly to state what I am expecting at the beginning of the practice driving test which is my first time. Yes, ' A smile goes for a mile' !
I do believe that the first impression to the examer is really important at the driving test.
Thank you. First impression is usually important everywhere. Especially interviews. This is basically a driving interview DTC-UK
Hello thank you I passed my test 30 min ago I get really halpfull your video
Thank u very much, i watched most of your videos and helped me pass my driving test first time with 2 minor just last week tuesday.
👍Thank you for commenting 👍Congratulations on your success DTCUK
Coming up to my Third Test next week! Hope I pass!
1st attempt was failed do to another driver and I messed up on a manoeuvre.
2nd was because I had no minors and was a little cocky and stalled at the roundabout junction (was a serious) right around the corner from the test centre on the way back.
3rd: Hopefully it's a Pass and I have a nice examiner and I'm calm on the day. No matter what gets thrown in my direction. (Hopefully I get a turn in the road manoeuvre to make this quick but most likely it won't be)
I can do all manoeuvres, even after a little rust.. most I found difficult was the bay park. Easiest Parallel park don't know why.
I'll update you on if I fail or pass, stay tuned..
Edit: I Passed With 4 Minors! 3rd Attempt!!!
Thank you for commenting. I personally passed third time. The best drivers do 😆 DTC-UK

I passed my test today first time, with the help of most of your videos. They were a great help thank you
I understand your accent soo well..I wish I won't have some posh examiner :(
If you don't understand the examiner, ask them to repeat instructions. DTC UK
Hi all the info you give is all basic teaching what your instructor should teach you as part of your lessons, I have been a grade 6/A instructor as it is now for over 32 yrs as as far as I’m aware your being judged totally on your safe and reasonably competent driving and not what you look like or behave.
Hi i have passed my test today 1st time with 2 minors only.your videos helped me alot Thankyou :)
Congratulations 😄🎈🎈🎈🎉🎉👍👏⭐️⭐️😃Drive Safely DTC-UK
Got my driving test Thursday, these are really good points. Will definitely be doing all this☺️

Barney B did you pass bro?
yh did you pass?
Did you pass
Good luck!
Loooool. Never knew had to be well dressed too. These videos just make one brave man nervous.
You don't. You dress however you want. You pay £60 for the test, not them. The driving test isn't as bad as it sounds. As long as you treat it as a driving lesson then you will be fine. With someone who has passed a driving test over a year ago all you need to do is apply what you have learnt in your lessons into your test, that's it! This video is bs if you ask me.
very good thanks for tips my test is next week will follow your tips thanks brilliant instructor
Thank you comment. Please continue to watch and share. Let us know how you get on. DTC-UK
Thanks very much Shaq. Your videos have been of immense help to me. After failing three times of my driving test, I finally got hold of your videos and I passed the test yesterday. I am extremely excited and grateful to you. Greetings from Manchester.
Firstly, congratulations on your success. Thanks for commenting. Drive safely 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😀
Good message respect sir
Thank you Peter
please please if you are in Sheffield, record a video from Middlewood test centre while driving, and share with us in UA-cam. This is very helpful for people like me to get familiar and used to the area so that my 'plan ahead' and 'awareness', 'position in time' and many problems is solved.
Hello thank you for the information and that video helped a lot, I just passed my test first time today at 12:38 and now I know first impression is important.

Thank you. Please continue commenting.
thanks for this video as back in October last year i passed mine first time due to this video and more clips so thanks mate from andy leeper Nelson lancs
Thank You. Safe Driving. DTC UK
i Watched this video the day before my 3rd test today, I think dressing smartly can alter examiners opinions. The first test i did i was dressed in a tracksuit, i failed because apparently i was too late turning left (6 minors). The second test i did i was also in a tracksuit and i failed on the last straight road coming back to the test centre as i wanted to change to gear 3 and it slipped into gear 1 (3 minors). However, today i dressed smartly had jeans and a comfortable top and i honestly though i failed because i was in the wrong lane at a roundabout, however i safely got to the other lane the examiner explained and i Passed! ( 5 minors) . I Hope this helps, just remember, dress smartly. don't be afraid of failure be confident, smell nice and just drive you'll be fine!
Congratulations 👍 DTCUK
no it's just how well you drive
Thanks a lot Mr for all your advice very helpful you r a master I passed my test in the first time big thank you💪🙏
Congratulations. Well done
Omg this is me thinking his gonna tell his some secret but its a lesson of manners.We aint all rude or dumb
👍Hello. Thank you for commenting. You are correct. It’s simple manners. A smile goes a mile. 😃 DTCUK
Very helpful, thanks, will be sure to implement all of these things.
Good Luck. DTC UK
Very good and effective information indeed. Thank you so much Shak!
Thank you. 👏👏
Hi Shak, I am really impressed the way you present, it's really short and sweet. Can you advise me please how to pass as I've had tests a couple of times. The last 3 times were just one serious fault each time, i.e. firstly, at the beginning of the test from the centre, when I pulled out I did check mirrors but a car suddenly went past me so the examiner failed me. Secondly, on a junction, I was about to take the right onto a dual carriageway, so I was waiting for the oncoming traffic from the opposite direction. However, I thought a motorbike was waiting for me so I drove off but the examiner braked and later on failed me for this reason. Thirdly, on an independent driving, as I pulled over the middle lane to change to the right, I saw there had already been a long traffic so I tried to take the advantage of a gap but the examiner stopped me, later on failed me for just one fault. I appreciate your advice.
+Reaz Ahmed Hello. The driving test is based on safety not how good your are. Focus your attention on safety and you WILL pass. If you come across any situation that you're not 100% sure do what you feel is safer.
Example- At a junction if you're 99% sure that you can make it DO NOT GO
You need to be 100% safe but without hesitation
Good luck with your driving test. DTC-UK
I think this advice makes really good sense. Thank you so much. I'll let you know the feedback.
Thank you Reaz. May I wish you all the very best of luck. Yes. Please do let me know how you get on. DTC-UK
Those saying this counts for nothing, examiners are still humans, this will absolutely count subconsciously. A woman I know hesitated, went around a round-about 3 times no indicator and left it without. Still passed. I failed for doing 32 in a 30 for about 30 yards on anotherwise perfect run.
Hello Steven. Thank you for commenting. Have you rebooked your driving test?
The sooner it's taken after failing, the better.
Hay that is so impressive it helped me out a lot boss thank you
Thanks for commenting
You are a very kind man and wise words thank you for sharing this common sense info : )
Very good informations
👍 Thank you for your comments. Good luck with your driving test. Please let us know how you get on. DTC-UK
My main man big Shaq
I was very personable with my examiner... in spite of the fact that he smelled like week old garbage... It was actually slightly off putting during the test as I had to open a window whilst we were driving along. I was really taken aback by it since he's meant to be an official and therefore presentable.
I'm sorry to hear about your experience 👍You have the right to complain to the DVSA should you wish. 😳DTC-UK
Driving Test UK I don't think it really affected my test too much... as soon as I started the test my focus was on driving well and not messing up... I made a couple of serious errors but that wasn't down to him. I felt perhaps I should have made a complaint to someone if only so they maybe had a quiet word with him about his personal hygene to make it more pleasant for other students.
👍
Thanks for share very helpful video!!!
Glad it was helpful!
