Rev the **** off the car and try to hold the wheel spin for 30 yards from the off.

Instructors like to see confidence - Especially in the young .

Just make sure you go into the test without being too nervous etc. and get a good nights sleep the night before.

Oh, and if you fail, be ready for us to take the pee monumentally

Turn in the road is much quicker, and thus safer if you just fly down the road, whack on some lock and yank the handbrake. As she spins get first and have the wheels spinning ready for a quick getaway.

1 SERIOUS tip for you and DON'T forget it! No matter what you do, Do NOT look at there clip board to try and see how your doing as they HATE that and will fail you and be more picky on other bits! True Fact!!!

Anyways good luck with the test!

Tip: Put your rear mirror slightly out of tilt, so you have to make an effort to look in it otherwise the instructor could miss you checking your rear mirror.

If you set your mirror deliberately out he can fail you for it. If you need to move your head to see adequately behind then you may miss something peripherally when not specifically looking, and that would be considered dangerous. Set them right, they won't miss your checks, but they will notice if you set it wrong, trust me.

Tip No.1 Dont drive a scooby as your first car if you have just passed your test. The confidence in the car is only matched by the talent of the driver


Tip No.2 If you pass and the instructor asks you to sign the pass form, dont insist on using a massive blue pen.

Tip No.3 Make sure you Don't drink loads of stella before you take the test

Serious answer - dont think about what you are doing too much - if you have had enough lessons then you will do it naturally and you are less likely to make mistakes by trying too hard and missing something small.

On my test after doing the set things like the reverse park etc... the second half was just general driving around while the examiner was chatting to me about bikes and stuff, and he said I drove a lot better then as I was doing it without thinking.

Also remember your 'life saver' checks over your right shoulder before pulling out or moving off - I got a couple of marks for this, even though I'm sure I had done them, but possibly just not moved my head enough to make it obvious.

Sleep with the instructor

Be prepared for the fact that the lesson before your test will be the worst you've ever driven. Relax and try to drive naturally.

c-o-l-e

Keep looking in your mirrors as if the whole world is out to get you, even if it just looks like you're looking.
Ignore the selfish arsehole behind who's hugging your bumper, they were sat in the same position as you long ago.

Short skirt ,high heels and plenty of make up

Drive exactly as you have been taught, don't ever try to be clever and do what the examiner says. A pleasant attitude helps as well.

Good luck.

How true is that? I was rendered completely incompetent before my test.

Or was that incontinent?
