Failed driving test ...?

Question

I just failed my driving test for the 2nd time and im pretty disapointed with myself not to mention the amount of abuse that im getting from my dad and friends for failing. First time i had 1 major mistake (mini round about for hesitating, instructor never explained them properly, some pl signal some dont i stayed so i failed .. ) Second test was just stupid, i had 2 minor mistakes and 1 major, the major was for moving of safely, so i do my manover paralel parking, he says move off, i wait loads of people on the street, i look around i see a van behind but i think its far enough so i move out ... problem is as i moved out half way the van was already behind me waiting and the guy was anoyed because i made him wait ... instructor seen that and its a major. Im not a bad driver, i drive safe and decent enough or so i see myself ... should i just give up ..?

Answer 1

Oh, come on, failing two times is not that bad.

DON'T GIVE UP

I knew a guy who had to test seven times... and he eventually passed it.

Answer 2

No don't give up! Usually I'm just messing around on here but seriously I had a similar thing happen to me when I was 16. I also failed twice but the third time was the one! I was frustrated because I felt I was textbook the second time but still didn't pass. The only thing I really did differently the 3rd time was that I made it aware to the instructor that I was aware of my actions and also of the actions of others (and the location of objects) around me. It worked! I hope this helps as odd as it sounds! Oh and by the way...I'm now 34 and have NEVER been in an at fault accident. :-) My point is that a license doesn't make one safe, it only makes one legal!

Answer 5

First relax the next time you take your test make sure that you there not alot of traffic out there. mid morning or afternoon. I drive big trucks and have to take 6 written test that i have to take & I dont want to fail but you have to over come that.

Best Luck to you.

Answer 6

Don't sweat it man, when I took my test at 18 I came with in a few points of failing, I got penalized for rolling past the line at the crosswalk because I couldn't see oncoming traffic and then going to fast over a dip. My bro is 20 and still doesn't have a license. Some instructors are different from each other, but don't give up, just focus and do your thing. Third time is a charm.

Answer 7

If you pulled out in front of a van that you already saw you are NOT a safe driver. Keep on walking.
