whitewitch Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 Past first time, had to take another driving test a few years ago for the job Im doing, passed that one too, although the second time around it was really hard to keep my hands at 10 to 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carboy42 Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 I think the problem is with the examiner rather than my daughter! They have mark sheets that list what items she failed on and I guess they will show you the reason! so ask your daughter to explain them and if you both feel he's wrong ask for another examiner or a witness to sit in the back during the test.

0114owl1867 Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 passed 1st time in '89' tho it was a lot easier then, from hillsbro, i went up to wisewood, lower walkley, stalled it in the first 5 mins, then i thought damn i've failed so i drove carefree without stress (as i thought i'd failed) then he gave me my pass sheet, that was in my own car ( a 2 yr old xr3i) that i wish i still had, and as a previous poster on here has said i was from/lived at grenoside at the time (wish i still was) maybe the pass rate up there is good still Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here, in fact I was in the car with one on Friday and he is a superb driver, although he is about as legal as a knuckle duster covered in uranium.

Leah-Lacie Posted June 20, 2011 Share Posted June 20, 2011 A girl that my auntie works with took her driving test last year. APPARENTLY (and I say this as its only what she has told me, with no proof) the driving instructor got into the car with her, but had forgotten his glasses. He got out and went back into the office, leaving his clipboard on the passenger seat. She got a bit nosy, and picked up his clipboard, and started looking through. She saw a list of names with (pass) or (fail) by the side of them. Hers said (Fail). Bar in mind she hadn't even started the car yet. When he came back, she obviously queried this with him, and was a little bit upset and angry. He told her to calm down, and he would pass her, as long as she didn't tell anyone. She passed first time. However, she has told everyone, and has APPARENTLY (again I have no proof) made an official complaint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manofstrad Posted June 20, 2011 Author Share Posted June 20, 2011 Leave him alone. He passes the days in his bedsit living on JSA by pretending to be rich. Think he's trying to attract some young gold digger. He's Slimsid I think? Don't do that Frank, it's not really your forte! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manofstrad Posted June 20, 2011 Author Share Posted June 20, 2011 12 lessons and passed 1st time Well done flash blade, I had quite a few friends that passed first time which kind of put me under a lot of pressure. I have since made up for it though and have many awards and trophies for outstanding driving, I also passed a special advanced driving test some years ago in order to be able to own and drive a certain high performance car.
