Anyone recently failed on their motorcycle test?

Question

Im just about to do my test on Tuesday for my DAS course, im pretty nervous about the questions and the physical part of the test, i can ride fine, but nerves sometimes get the better of me, has anyone recently failed / passed their test, tell me what it was like?

Answer 1

Good luck to you, I'm hoping to get mine in before the changes in October, i too have your problem with nerves. I think alot of the test is about road positioning and looking over your shoulder plenty lol Fingers crossed for you, all the best  

Answer 2

I failed the computer test. It's 25 questions and you can only get 6 wrong. I failed by the 13th question. I though I could pass based on experience. They need exact phrases and choices from the DMV manual which I hadn't read. I just studied the book and retook the exam and passed.

Answer 3

You'll be fine...just stay as calm as is humanly possible. I passed in May and was crapping it. Until the day of my test I hadn't been able to do a U-Turn without putting my foot down but determination got me through on the day.

Just don't rush anything and just look ahead. Talking to the examiners and instructors most people who fail do it on something stupid like not switching off an indicator after a turn, or on shoulder checks so just constantly talk yourself through what you are doing even the simple things like indicator on, shoulder check, lifesaver, turn, indicator off....that sort of thing...it helped me stay calm on the day, and if you do something stupid don't stress about it your examiner will be doing his observations aswell so you never know he might have missed it!!

Good luck.

You would have to be a Mikey Tuttle to flunk your test. Think positive, make sure you study and practice and the night before close your eyes and see your self passing. There you've don it.  

Answer 5

Just relax and try your best. Think about how awesome it would be to past instead of what would happen if you fail. And just review a bit to make you more confident.
