    good luck mate, for all that are struggling to pass, try a rural centre

    I failed at Anniesland - examiner that failed me was also notorius for failing young men, I failed on driving to close to road works - utter bollox

    Passed at Springburn - Doddle

    Passed again at Springburn 5 years later (long story) - Doddle in my dad's car no refresher tuition or such

    My other tip offset your mirrors so you are making your observation more obvious for the examiner to spot
    observation observation and observation

    Took me three tries to get mine even though I made more major * ups in the 3rd one that the other two. At least I thought I did until he told me I passed. Happy days

    Driving is over-rated. Just far too much money to keep a car on the road. Insurance prices here in the North are * mental

    I'll hopefully be doing my driving test in a month or two. I hope this thread helps me to pass. Just like Mo Bangura helped me to pass my theory test.

    Passed mine at the first attempt last month with 4 minors. Even managed to stall the car for the first time since about my third lesson lol think the nerves got to me. Also was sitting in a lane of traffic for about five minutes before I realized I hadn't got the handbrake on. The stupid * never even realized. He could have easily just failed me.

    took me 3 times.

    failed first time because i hit a curb doing a 3 point turn.

    Should have passed the second time but someone pulled out in front of me and he hit the brakes. I had it under control but the guy was a *. He was huge too, i kept rubbing his legs changing gears :smiley-laughing002:


    Good luck with it :50:
