    Good luck, and remeber to put your mirror slightly of line so you have to move your head just a tad to see in it,that way the instructure will see you looking back now and then.

    well the answer today was that I failed the driving test, what a day made a mistake on the way down so the instructor shouted at me so did another again shouted at me so I told him off .when he said pull over , I think mike You will fail today that for me was the last straw I broke down and said listen I was in pain at times but said carry on he said you should have said , I said ok I was on a road and had pain in my hip and asked if I can pull over you said no you cant do that even on your test , I made a face when I was in pain , you never once said do you want to pull over , I no that you are not a disabled instructor as they have compasion and no when your in pain , you dont have to tell them when your in pain as they have mirrors all around to see just you. He said sorry mike I have played this all wrong : I got 9 minors and 2 serious and 1 major faults and to cap it all the instructor said at my house right thats £100.00 for the day I nearely droped there and then .

    But I am going to see if my neibour son can go down with me for the next test

    Oh Mike I bet you are shattered, but please try to relax now...stress is no good for you.
    You are not the only person to fail first time, so dont be hard on yourself.
    We will all be behind you next time....you can do it.
    Love

    thank you all for your words of support , I am thinking of re booking the test in the next few weeks , I know now that roundabouts is one of my weak points and the msm check. but I will get used to thease points and next time hope I get the same examiner ( which is rare) trying to get an instructor from the disability centre to take me down to the test centre , a £100.00 was a bit much for one day to pay out.

    thank you all
