Failed 3rd driving test
Comments

Most of us had to have 2 or more attempts to pass, in my case it took 3 attempts, so we know how disappointing and frustrating it can be. I was confident in all my tests but like most I was also nervous, as the test got going I was more relax.
Many good advice on here, probably best not to tell anyone next time you have a test and you could decide whether you want your instuctor in the car for the test, that might help as someone pointed out, the examiner are being watched too. All I can say it put in for another test when you get over the disappointment of today. It will take a couple of months to get the date, then start the lessons again.0 -
In fact, might be an idea to pay for tests rather than too many more lessons?0

Is it an option for you to drive with someone else - possibly a family member? For some people this works, but it depends on how calm everyone is and could lead to the worst arguments..0

I failed my first test because of nerves - I was physically shaking... I asked my doctor for some beta blockers and she gave me a prescription for a week's worth (you have to start taking them a few days in advance). I hadn't heard of rescue remedy at the time - if I had, I might have tried that first.0
