Gday Jimbo, I am so glad passed 1stgo, on my own little manual car, saving me hundreds of troubles cause I was on oversea licence, if failed I will be issued Learner Licence and need to be supervised to drive. Thank you so much, I shared this exciting news to all friends and share your videos to those who also struggling to learning drive in NSW and hesitating to book a test.
Congratulations mate on passing!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Just found your channel the past week, and passed my driving test first try today and got my P's. Thank you !! 👍👍
Got my test tmr, what should I expect??? 😅
@uu-tq2lx testing officer will tell you where to turn and when to stop, just stay focused and make a point of doing your head checks :) when you park all you have to tell them is when you're done, then you'll take off again. Take your time and best of luck to you 👍

Passed my test first go just then jimbo, first thing I did was come here to thank you for all the lessons I was able to watch. YOURE A LIFE SAVER! ❤️
Hei Jimbo! Just got my p-s on first go! Wouldn’t have made it without you as I’m in a rural place enough (Narrabri) that I couldn’t take lessons with a proper instructor before the test (they only come here from Tamworth once a month and there’s no availability for August) and while my supervising driver taught me wonderfully, he wasn’t 100% up-to-date on what the test is like nowadays so I had to look many things up myself. So lucky I stumbled on your channel! Thank you so-so-so much! Stay safe!
Congratulations Helina on passing!!! So glad my videos helped you out. Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
OMG! I literally just passed my exam in Castle hill 1st GO! Thank you so much! Your videos helped a lot. I’ve watched them for the whole week. My instructor discourage me on taking it, but I took it with all your help! Will definitely recommend your videos on others..
Congratulations on passing 1STGO!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Hi Jimbo, Both my wife (1ST GO) and me have greatly benefited from your videos (passed from Blacktown). Special mention of your mock test video with Abdullah which we watched on loop on the day prior to our respective driving tests... you are doing an amazing service to the community in bringing up a safe generation of drivers on the NSW roads. Godspeed.
Congratulations to both of you on passing!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂

Hey Jimbo! I’ve passed my driving test on Monday, 26th June at the Testing Centre at St Mary’s. Didn’t pass the first one 4 weeks ago, but I think I should have. The testing officer failed me on 2 items: failing to indicate 3 times and crossing an invisible centre line. I have no recollection of either one, but I took the challenge and gave myself another 4 weeks. I thought I failed again on Monday coz the testing officer kept on scribbling 😂 Imagine my surprise when he said, Congratulations! 😳 I was like “Really???” And his reply was “You did really well and you’re a really good driver!” Now that I’m out of the euphoria, I would like to thank you for your very helpful videos. I never hired a professional driving instructor. I had to sit with my ex partner for the last 14 months. I discovered your videos on UA-cam 8 weeks ago before my first driving test. I binge watched all your videos. Who needs a professional driving instructor? 😂 From the bottom of my ❤️, thank you very much. I have recommended your videos to my niece & a very good friend of mine. I wish you more success on UA-cam and in your chosen career. Keep rocking, Jimbo! All the best ! 🙏🙏🙏🦋
Congratulations Emmy on passing!!! So glad my videos helped you out. Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂

Evening Jimbo, I just passed my P1 driving test in Hornsby first try. I was asked to perform the 3 point turn manoeuvre and thanks to your video I knew the right sequence in regard to head checks and dry steering the wheel. Furthermore, your videos on lane changing and even the reverse parallel park were extremely useful. Thank you for all your informative videos! Cheers Jimbo!
Congratulations Baylee on passing 1STGO at Hornsby!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Did my test last week and passed first go because of these videos, thank you 🙏
Congratulations zro on passing 1STGO!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Cheers for the video Jimbo! Experienced this today on my driving lesson. Learnt to put the indicator on to request lane change rather than waiting for a gap and risk missing your turn.
Great work 👍
Thank you Jimbo, your clips are very useful to all the people who tried to pass the driving test like me. Today I had my red P at first go. 😊
Congratulations on passing 1STGO!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂

Legend!! I passed on my first try at Macquarie Shopping centre (ryde). Thanks for all your videos. I never took driving lessons, only your videos. The only tricky thing is that at my first red traffic light the line wasn't no marked on road, but changed to geeen as I got closer.

Thank you very much for sharing your videos, they are of high value in terms of knowledge. I am watching them to learn with you. The reality has failed 3 times and I am discouraged from resubmitting the test again, but I am going to resubmit it. Thank you for your explanation. I really want my P red and I need a driving instructor.
Best of luck Carmen. Thanks for watching 🙂

Super useful tips as always Jimbo! Thanks for sharing!
Ahahaa the Alex mentioned at the start reminds me of myself, I have been on my Ls for a very long time like him because of fear of failure and I want to conquer it this year. Your videos give me more confidence. I guess whatever happens will happen. I can always retake the test. It's always better to try than not at all. Thanks Jimbo for all your great content
That is my biggest fear that I go in and the car keeps accelerating because you have an L and they don't want to give you space because there are a lot of mean people when they know you are on your L's
Yeah those people suck.
I passed my driver's test 2nd go 105/107 in Macquarie Park thanks Jimbo!

Thanks for your videos
Hey Jimbo! Thanks for your videos
Can you possibly do one for reverse parking into bays?
Hi Kevin. Yes that's coming up soon. I just did a reverse steering vid and we can use the skills in that for the reverse into a bay vid. Thanks for watching 🙂
Hello Jimbo I know that this isn’t directly linked to the driving tests , but I have a question. Can an individual drive a P plate prohibited vehicle if they are accompanied by an individual with a full NSW licence. Because on your L plates you were able to drive any vehicle you want next to a full licensed driver. Thank you.
im wondering this too
My understanding is that you cannot drive a prohibited vehicle unless you have applied for and been granted an exemption. I always refer you to Service NSW if you want an official answer.
I have been on my L's for 7 years as im not very confident. I had many lessons with a driving instructor who was an assesor before and he said try your luck with the test. I have been going with my friend as well for driving classes. Im thinking im just going to watch your videos and book my test. Any advice Jimbo?
Hi Jemma has your driving instructor done any practice tests with you? If so how did they go ? Were there any weaknesses?
In this scenario, when will we do a head check/ shoulder check?
When you can see the other car is backing off then do the blindspot check.
Hey Jimbo, can u please make more videos on tight parking spaces in malls? I passed my P but am very confused reversing and parking in tight parking lots :/
No worries will do. 👍
Hey Jimbo, I passed the driving test on my first go as well, thank you for your mock test videos! I have a question. Now that I am on P1 and can't go above 90, can I drive in the middle lane in freeways? Or should I only drive on the leftmost lane?
Stick to left lane you will piss people off driving in the middle lane
@@zc23465 But then I'm pissing off the big semis driving on the left lane and they get constantly forced to overtake me.
You should keep left unless there is someone slower than you and you can overtake them. The trucks will go around you. Congratulations on passing!!!
Hello mate, i don’t have back camera, can i adjust left side mirror while only doing reverse parking while in test.
Yes you can. Try and remember to adjust it back up.
Hey mate, I've got a quick question. I failed my test a few days ago for missing head checks, though I'm confident I did them.
I head checked every time I turned a corner (they say every time you put your blinker on where I live) or merged into traffic and during my kerb side stop and 3 point turn, including looking out the back of the vehicle. I also did the right and left checks when I was first in line at the traffic lights.
I should've asked what I missed but I was too disappointed and just wanted to leave but it has me wondering because in all my lessons leading up to the test I was fine with head checks and I remembered to do them.
I'm really stumped on where I went wrong and how I need to fix it before my next test. I know it's my fault that I didn't ask her to explain and I should've. However, do you have any advice? Appreciate it :)
Sorry to hear you didn't pass. I dont really know what checks you missed either. So just rebook and have another go. Best of luck 🤞
Hey jimbo what happens if you cannot move into the left lane if there is an ambulance is that still considered a instant fail?
As I explained in the video if you cannot make the turn then just do something that you can do legally and the examiner will attempt to get you back on track.
Jimbo… question please
I’m 25years old. I’ve had my license since I was 17. Now I’m finally ready, and in desperate need to be independent!!
Do I need a log book now that I’m 25? If not, is there anything I need?? Also, if I do fail… how long till I can try again. Thank you sooo much
Hello Kara. Now you are 25 you do not need the logbook. However you still are doing the same driving test so the skills one picks up by completing the logbook are the same required to pass the test (especially 1STGO). This includes the topics of the learn goals and having the driving experience. If you fail the test you have to wait a minimum 7days.
just passed my test with a score of 106. thanks heaps for your videos. also is a score of 106 good? also going to buy you 5 coffees my man.❤
Congy Dan on passing !!! 106 is great 👍👍👍. Thanks for watching 🙂
hey Jimbo I'm a new driver so how do I tell if they're letting me go? i tried changing that once but got honked
Well you observe them hanging back to your speed. It's something that practice will improve for you.
Hi Jimbo
I have a question which could be silly
How can I judge that my car is in the centre of the lane
My husband always comments that the car is deviated to one side which I don’t feels is the case
two ways to tell: first way is by comparing your left foot to the road. since the left foot is the closest to the centre you wanna look at your left foot and look at the road if youre too stuck on one side your left foot compared to the road will look like its glued either to left or right. second way is by looking at both side mirrors. if youre too glued on one side one of your side mirror will indicate that your car is too close to the white lines. hope this helps
I have had students that drive too far to the left and they see it as normal and it's not centred. To see if you are centred I would have to actually be in the car with you. If we assume your husband is correct , get him to position you where he feels your are centred and then read the edge and centre lines and get familiar with that. Every time you veer off get him to move you back. Do this until you are good.
