Snow.
well, i managed to pass next go - without flaw. perhaps the previous tester was just having a bad day
I was totally freaked out a few minutes before my test started. I guess my best advice is to have faith in yourself and keep calm. Most mistakes you do will just be minor stressful ones, if that.davosss said:Hey guys, I've got a test for my p's coming up in a couple of weeks and I was just wondering if anybody has any good stories or tips about getting their P's first time?

they fail you for going too slowly, as well as going over the limit. Im not sure how slow is too slow though, but ur prolly best to stay 5 under rather than 10.katietheskatie said:this probably sounds like a stupid question, but will they fail you for going consistently like 10km/h or so under the limit? because i usually have a bit of a minor speeding problem (like, just a couple k's over) and i'm paranoid that it'll fail me.
also .. if i fuck up my reverse parking but do pretty much everything else okay (like hillstart, 3 point turn etc 'cause i'm fine with them) -- i won't pass, right?
im the same and apparently theyre real cunts about it.katietheskatie said:because i usually have a bit of a minor speeding problem (like, just a couple k's over) and i'm paranoid that it'll fail me.
It depends really, I barely went above 50km/h in my test even in 60 zones because of either the road being short and needing to brake early or because theirs a corner or because of the 3 seconds gap rule etc etc etc. The main thing is to not just sit on say 30km/h in a 50 zone, just accelerate consistantly but slowly.... thats what I did at least.they fail you for going too slowly, as well as going over the limit. Im not sure how slow is too slow though, but ur prolly best to stay 5 under rather than 10.
Yeah, I had a guy who my friends said was a hard arse and even when I heard the way he spoke (Like really professional and monotone) I thought he would do everything by the book, but even he only flicked through it.... even though Im prity sure they are MEANT to ask questions about it but they dont!they don't even really look at it .. they just flick through it and add up the hours, i don't think they really care.
all the man did to my logbook was flip through the pages chunk by chunk and check that there's a signature on the pages he checks.. then takes a photocopy of the inside coverbassqueen16 said:do examiners like to see a pretty full logbook?
woah serious? i hope i get someone like that... so they pretty much dont care woot for me thenCieL said:all the man did to my logbook was flip through the pages chunk by chunk and check that there's a signature on the pages he checks.. then takes a photocopy of the inside cover
