Have you failed a practical driving test? If so... how many majors and minors did u have and what were they?

Question

and how many lessons did you have? How much did you pay per lesson?

I have my test next Wednesday!! x

Answer 1

Yup ive failed too. I took a load of lessons with an instructor, failed twice cos of him. Took 4 lessons with a new instructor with a good reputation and passed with flying colours! What i would say is that if your looking for lessons, go to somebody your friends highly recommend! On the morning keep your head, thinking clearly is half the battle! And remember if you do fail, ok it doesnt feel great, but you can always go again. Im 19 and most of my driving friends have failed first time round, theres no real shame in it! Best of luck, you'll be fine!

Answer 2

lol ive failed twice had same examiner both times and failed me on bull ****.

didnt get too many minors

got 2 majors both times

the first:

had to emergency stop at a round about cuz a car full of chavs cut up the people to their right who they shud hav slowed down for so it wud b ok for me to go but they didnt next thing i know they wer about to hit me.

the other was for goin in the right lane of a dual carriage way cuz we wer gonna take a right turn off it it was the only lane to take a right off it and he said we got undertaken therfore major fault but you gotta slow down to turn!!!

second:

apparantly i could have stopped sooner for a car when i was doin reverse round a corner hav no idea how as i saw him turn into the road and stopped

then i got one for gearing! as i turned into a road that i didnt know was gonna be steep so the car slowed down befor it sped up so the car behind apparantly got too close! thats his bloody fault n my instructor said if that was the case i should have only got a minor fault

drivin test is such a scam my mates dad was an examinor he said there are defo quotas and the best time to take a test is the first week of the month and if ur male under 21 you have a 1/8 chance of passin 1st time

Answer 3

I failed mine 8 times, never passed it.

I learnt for 7 years.

I had 20 lessons for every test, so 160 lessons.

I paid between £10 and £20 a lesson.

I got enough errors each time to fail me, with 2 exceptions.

2nd test I nearly crashed the car, got a D for dangerous and had my test terminated

8th test, I MIGHT have passed but I ahd a go at the examiner at the end and she failed me

OK you can all stop laughing now!!!! Good luck for next week :) xx

Answer 4

I had pretty much one lesson a week for 5 months, failed my first test but passed my second one two weeks later.

I got one major because I was told to take the second exit on a roundabout but I didn't notice that there was an exit right next to the one that I was emerging from. So I took the third exit. Although the third exit was actually straight ahead so I don't really blame myself for missing the first one.

I only got 6 minors as well so I was pretty close to passing.

Good luck on your test, the reason most people fail first time is because of nerves so try to relax.

Answer 5

I failed with 1 major and 2 minors.

Failing to look both ways while making a right hand turn is what got me!
