Crouchie's Lawyer Posted 3 September, 2008 Share Posted 3 September, 2008 I passed my test officially first AND second time. FACT. I think I would pass, but as above mentions, would incur a few 'minor points' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al de Man Posted 3 September, 2008 Share Posted 3 September, 2008 I often "practise" driving back home from Bursledon Tesco within the speed limit but only after midnight so as not to p*ss off every other road user, so know I can do that. I imagine I'd fail on observations though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jillyanne Posted 3 September, 2008 Share Posted 3 September, 2008 Fail, probably on Highway Code questions alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatch Posted 3 September, 2008 Share Posted 3 September, 2008 Fail, probably due to being over the limit, or swearing at Micra drivers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponty Posted 3 September, 2008 Share Posted 3 September, 2008 I'd pass, but only because I'm aware of everything I do wrong and I'd correct it for the test. If I was tested without my knowledge I'd probably fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pip87 Posted 3 September, 2008 Share Posted 3 September, 2008 I think i'd pass - i passed very well originally and haven't done an awful lot of driving since so I can remember a lot of the stupid 'driving test rules'. But as Ponty said - if it was done without my knowledge i'm not so sure. Some news programme did do a few tests recently on people who've been driving for a while and all but one failed (the person doing the news piece). The main thing they failed on was observation - checking mirrors and pulling out of junctions when there wasn't really enough time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saint francis Posted 3 September, 2008 Share Posted 3 September, 2008 (edited) It was an "observation" gag Ponty. Clearly wasted. Fail. Edited 3 September, 2008 by saint francis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ponty Posted 3 September, 2008 Share Posted 3 September, 2008 It was an "observation" gag Ponty. Clearly wasted. Fail. That was a hell of a stretch. You might as well have posted it on another forum. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaintKenny Posted 3 September, 2008 Share Posted 3 September, 2008 Haven't taken it yet, probably fail it if I did take it though, cause I have only had 2 lessons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weston Super Saint Posted 3 September, 2008 Share Posted 3 September, 2008 Fail - probably for driving too slow and annoying so many other drivers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poshie72 Posted 3 September, 2008 Share Posted 3 September, 2008 Fail. Driving too fast, too close to the person in front, braking late. and thats just according to the bf Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

St Landrew Posted 4 September, 2008 Share Posted 4 September, 2008 If I re-took it unprepared I'd fail. I'd pass if I studied beforehand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ponty Posted 4 September, 2008 Share Posted 4 September, 2008 24/35 erm... back to school for me. What are these various zoo-themed crossings? Also I panicked a bit because of the time constraint when asked about stopping distances, etc., because I learnt them all in yards and suddenly the oh so familiar numbers were gone.

Deano6 Posted 4 September, 2008 Share Posted 4 September, 2008 26, but I'd defo have passed with a little revision and learning the numerical ones. Got 34 in my real test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CabbageFace Posted 4 September, 2008 Share Posted 4 September, 2008 Its the hazard awareness thing that is mental! I failed with a whooping 6/35. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Bateman Posted 4 September, 2008 Share Posted 4 September, 2008 ****, I got 24/35! Surprised at that, haha! I'd fail anyway ... like Al said, sometimes when I'm bored I try to drive "properly". I can't feed the steering wheel at all. It's too slow and I almost crash ...

Guest Dark Sotonic Mills Posted 4 September, 2008 Share Posted 4 September, 2008 I surprised myself by passing the theory, 30/35. I've had my licence for 28 years and I thought I'd forgotten everything in the Highway Code. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poshie72 Posted 4 September, 2008 Share Posted 4 September, 2008 24/35 not bad after 19 years. Makes the 3 questions I had to answer on the highway code seem easy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al de Man Posted 4 September, 2008 Share Posted 4 September, 2008 I just passed with 30/35 and thought I did sh*t. It was all the towing of caravans and pedestrian crossing questions that got me and since neither concerns me whilst I'm driving other than being "inconveniences" I can't say I'm overly bothered.

Hatch Posted 5 September, 2008 Share Posted 5 September, 2008 Did you complete the ones which had more than one answer? That's what caught me out. I got 24/35. The only ones I got wrong were the ones about Flamingo crossings and White Argentinain Snow Leopard crossings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draino76 Posted 5 September, 2008 Share Posted 5 September, 2008 18/35 All the ones I got wrong were irrelenant, IMO. Like the motorway speed limit and giving way to pedestrians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Colinjb Posted 5 September, 2008 Share Posted 5 September, 2008 Without doubt i'ld fail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al de Man Posted 5 September, 2008 Share Posted 5 September, 2008 18/35 All the ones I got wrong were irrelenant, IMO. Like the motorway speed limit and giving way to pedestrians. Absolutely.

Guest Hacienda Posted 5 September, 2008 Share Posted 5 September, 2008 23. I'd fail now. Far too many bad habits. Have you tried that feed the wheel routine? I'd crash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pip87 Posted 5 September, 2008 Share Posted 5 September, 2008 27. There are some odd questions that weren't there when I did mine. Makes me feel old :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TopGun Posted 5 September, 2008 Share Posted 5 September, 2008 Not bothered with that test. I know I'd pass. I remember driving how to pass a driving test like it was yesterday. And I'm sure the theory would be a piece of ****, just visualise the distances in the main. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
