  • Today I FINALLY passed my driving test! However, this was not my first attempt: I'd already failed three times! Here's my story about how I managed to mess it up three times and why it doesn't matter.

    Failed twice already, months later i'm looking to book my 3rd test. At Least research has supposedly says that the more intelligent you are the more times you're likely to fail because your brain over analyses situations resulting you in forgetting to do an obvious thing.

I took it hard because if I hadn’t messed up that park I would’ve passed, but this video really helped me realise what you said, it’s not a reflection of my driving, just my driving in those 45 minutes.

That didn't make it easier eventhough I am proud of her for passing. I just wish to get my license as soon as possible. The hardest part is having to wait for the next chance.

    I failed my second test yesterday and honestly I feel awful about it. My first test I nearly passed but I made 1 stupid mistake. I booked my second test for over a months time away and I became a much better driver in that time but I failed again and this time the test went worse than the first time! It's so true how every test is different. My second test was much harder with way more hazards and I ended up making misatakes that I would never make in my lessons. It's knocked my confidence massively as I am a huge perfectionist and not used to failing. Now I have to go through the stress of another test. I just want to pass so badly :(

Although the stupid thing here is an exam costs around £200.00 (€235.00) and you have to take 2/4 lessons prior to your re-exam, which costs ~£35.00 (

    😂) 2nd time I was lit 2 minutes away from the test centre and a man walks out in front of me and examiner grabs my wheel and today I failed because I didn’t turn my head dramatically enough to the right when I had to reverse back 2 car parking spaces.... fingers crossed 4th time lucky.

I did but it was a short turn and I went into the wrong lane so I moved back into the other lane the examiner told me like “you’re in the wrong lane” I’m like fuck I kno I’m just nervous and failed … I was pissed my nerves just keep getting to me ugh.

    Failed my test the second time today! I'm planning on going like two days from now and hopefully, I can pass. I failed the first and second time both with immediate disqualifications, making the test end early, so I've never even gotten to the three-point turn on any test I've done even though I know how to do it! It sucks because most people I know who fail are super responsible drivers fail just because they're not being defensive enough. It's normally other people's actions on the road that affect you. But thank you for this video it really makes me feel a lot better. I'm hoping just to hop right back in and pass cause it's so frustrating. I think failing the second time is the hardest because after failing once you're like, "I've got this next time," and go in with a bunch of confidence only to be let down. I love your videos so much though and this one is currently giving me some much-needed therapy.

    I failed my test and everything that could've gone wrong, did go wrong. The break lights stopped working minutes before the test so I was late, I got a mean examiner who rarely passes people and a horrific test route. Not to mention I live in LONDON so it was busy anyways considering my test was 8:20 and I had to do reverse around the corner on a hill, it's like I was set up to fail. My next test is soon though and I hope to pass but we'll just see what happens, it can't go worse than the first one anyways 😂🤷🏾‍♀️

  • @arthurshelby9955
    @arthurshelby9955 4 роки тому +3

    I passed first time, here are 4 tips I can give
    Have a good night sleep as it’s vital for concentration.
    The morning of your test (or whatever time it is) get excited for passing and think good thoughts. ( Don’t get overconfident though).
    REALLY TRY TO CALM THE NERVES ONCE YOU GET TO THE TEST CENTRE.
    And finally, if you do make a mistake during the test. DO NOT dwell on it and prove to the examiner you’re a good driver by just carrying on and you may just get a minor or they probably will ignore it.
    Anyone taking their test, best of luck hopefully you come out on top👊👊

    After 2 fails I finally got my license! It's pretty easy for the evaluator to fail you for simple mistakes so keep your head up if it happens. Failure doesn't necessarily mean you're a bad driver. Keep practicing and go at it again. You're bound to get someone who believes in you. But for me I took a step further by contacting a private license and professional dmv agent that helped me to write a provisional letter to bypass the test drive and i was given a provisional driver's license which will last for 12 months. I got a license now and it will serve for 1 year then I renew again.
    My little advice.
    * If you think are too nervous for the test drive then you can easily switch to a provisional driver's license which you won't need to test drive.

Like big fkn deal I was driving safely and my turns were great! When stopping on the side of the road I was more than half a metre from the kerb so got more points off and ahhh the only thing I know I didn't do well was using the clutch too much and occasionally being in the wrong gear compared to my speed, but the other stuff my examiner was just nitpicking little things!
