Need to pass driving test
    #14535476 - 05/30/11 11:49 AM (12 years, 9 months ago)

Shits tough here in UK man.

I spent over a grand trying to pass and just kept failing.  My nerves always get the better of me.

Its not a test of how well you can drive.  Its a test of what a good robot you can be on the test day.  :mad2:

I made 1 little mistake.  Forgot to pull up a handbrake when stopping during a 3 point turn.  Instructor even tells me I drove perfect apart from that :facepalm:

It does my head in.  We have a rule here... you have to wait 3 months between tests.  So now I have to spend another half grand on lessons cuz they are so expensive.  Talk about under pressure - every test is a potential half k loss if you make 1 little mistake :sad:

I sat here beating myself up for ages now.  Honestly makes me so angry and sad.  Worst thing is, I know this cocky twat who drives like a maniac and because he has no nerves, he passes first time :mad2: Now hes going around being the cocky twat he is and endagering lives, yet a safe driver like me loses out because I'm precautious.

Fuck my life.  I'm gonna shoot loads of people and blow my brains out.  Not really but dam it pisses me off bad that the testing system is not even testimg for decent driving ability.  Its only testing for confidence.  Which I have when driving normally without some cock next to me failing me for forgetting 1 puny fucking handbrake.

Who the fuck uses the handbrake when pulling a 3point. The sounds fucking stupid.


In my state you also have to wait like 3 months after failing, but it is relatively cheap.

You have to.  There the rules.  If you don't you fail.


Even worse.  Its not even 1 test here in UK.  You have to do 2 tests and in a few weeks they are making it 3 tests.

Also because I failed this time.  I have to do the first test again.  Which is another 50 quid!!!!  FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU



Just fuck me in the ass gov, fuck me good

I got a perfect first time on my test, but my instructor was kinda weird.

He told this girl who went before me to park in an empty shopping cart return. :lol:

You have to use it every stop in the 3 point turn.  You also have to stop and use it if anything else near you is moving - pedestrian or car :facepalm:  Might as well just fucking cause a 20 car pile up cuz its dumb as shit

Same here.


Mine was kinda pointless after I drove halfway out of the hood with it on though.


Lol OP throw the ebrake on before you start driving for the test. They can't fuck you for not using it if it was already on to begin with.

That honestly makes no sense, seems like a lot of unnecessary e-brake use. Don't they call it a parking brake or and E-brake for a reason? You use if when you park or in an emergency to stop. I always try to make my 3 point turns quick so I don't clog up traffic. I dont think I would be able to do that if I was fumbling the the parking brake and trying to shift quick.



I failed my parrallel parking and I accidentally rolled through a stop sign because you couldn't see it, I still passed here though.

na in an emergency stop you have to pump the foot brake to prevent skid but stop fast.  If you use the hand brake you can skid out :confused:

In reality no-one uses the handbrake in 3 point turns - its just some BS rule.  Just sucks for me that its a major fault meaning you fail the whole test for that 1 mistake.

That sounds fuckin' stupid.  The only purpose of the handbrake is for parking.  Over here we call it a parking break or emergency break (don't get that one, if I need to stop in a hurry, I'll just stomp the foot break.)

Yeah I know but I was talking about the manouveur we have to do here called "emergency stop"  you don't use it if someone jumps in front of you unless the foot brake has failed.

I did study.  I got nerves and forgot to pull up 1 handbrake because of nervousness.  No amount of study is going to stop nerves :confused: unless you mean anti nevere meditation or something
