How to pass Driving test......

faraj

First I would like to :T MSE for the excellent work .
At last I've just passed my Driving Theory test but I'm worried about the Practical test. Searching the Web I found an e-book called "How to Pass Your Driving Test at the First Attempt...With Just Two Minors!" by Dan J. Has anybody tried it before and is it worth a try?
I'm desperate

i would spend as much time with your driving instructor as possible, doing mock tests and also going out with someone as a passanger in their car. you can then do the ' what if i was driving now' thing where you imagine yourself to be the driver and you will then notice all the mistakes your friend is making. it will also help with you judgement, your friend may pull out when you thought there was not time to do it safely.

i would say if you are that worried about your driving test, try and book it for the earliest time possible when there is most traffic on the road, if you get held up in traffic for 25 minutes, it is 25 minutes where you cant make a mistake ( in theory as long as you dont stall the car ).

your driving instuctor will have taken you on all the local driving school routes so you should be confident about the area your test will be in.


dont spend money on some e-book about passing with 2 minors, how on earth can the author stated that, driving instructors will give marks out as a learning guide to the student, if they pass and have 0 points the driver thinks they are great, the test examiner will give marks as a guide to where the driver should look to improve.

spend the money on extra lessons.

goodluck

my advice is to practice practice and of course practice. on the test day have a lesson and go to the test centre early. this will give you plenty of time to relax. have a chewing gum, anything to relax yourself. when in the car with the examiner just pretend that he/she is your instructor and take it easy. if you made a mistake never mind forget it and concentrate.

using the above i passed the first time

I would echo the tip about relaxing. Took me 3 attempts to pass. First attempt I was too confident and not relaxed, second I was worked up and made so many mistakes, third time I talked to the examiner and relaxed.

If you are ready to take the test, and you can drive properly you won't have anything to worry about. Keep your eyes on your mirrors and the road, do exactly what you are asked to do, carefully, and safely and you will be fine.
