:):):):):):):):):)

[Riggy]

congrats on the theory , and best of luck for when you book the test ,


best start saving for insurance though lol

[NovaLad]

Cheers :)

Allready started saving a bit ago + i think my dad will go halfs with me :)

[michael squeak]

good work mate, is it hard i got mine mon

[NovaLad]

Err even though i failed twice 1st i found the theory well easy because i had took the test before loadsa times...

If you revise loads it really pays off because you get there and know the answers to the questions straight away.

The only bit i found hard was the Hazard Perception but all you can do with that is practice. Good Luck lol.

[5T1G]

When i took my theory, few years back, they had only just bought the hazard perception out. I just looked for the same car in all the clips and clicky clicky lol

[Alex.]

The theory is the easy bit lol

[NovaLad]

Just booked a lesson with a crash course guy for saturday and he will tell me how many lessons in a crash course i need to pass because i don't want to wait more week to pass would rather finish it all in a week lol...

Been waiting since april :(

[Riggy]

lol the national average for lessons is 35

[NovaLad]

lol the national average for lessons is 35

Fooking hell where you find that out??

[Alex.]

lol, ok children.

The theory IMO is hard! the HazardP isnt. Although i passed first time. I Revised my nuts off. Novalad. Book it now! im still waiting 4 weeks for my test. Dec 12 here i come! :D

See I thought the questions were easier. Like Jack's said, it's hard to classify what you class as a hazard and what they might class as a hazard.

People want to pass before christmas! lol

yer i agree, But when u get questions like

"wat do u do when your car cathes on fire in a Tunnel?"

Its kinda Hard to think of anything else other than Run! lol
The actual answer is too drive as far as u can until u reach the end! I mean wtf! :confused:

[NovaLad]

Novalad. Book it now! im still waiting 4 weeks for my test. Dec 12 here i come! :D

That's another reason why i want to get my test done because the waiting list... My mate has re booked his 2 week ago and he has to wait till after christmas lol

Oh, And good luck with it ;)

[NovaLad]

I had a dodgy 1..

What do you do if someones headlights are blinding you in front.

Answer:- Cover your eyes.... Like WTF lol

[Matt2107]

Whats the point in booking an intensive course then?
Why not phone and book a test first.

I passed both theory and practical first time.
One of my old school friends took several attempts at his theory and 5 attempts at his practical.

IMO some people are supposed to drive and others should be banned from the road.

Edit: My brother booked an intensive course and still failed... now he's had to have a load of lessons which in total cost him more than just taking regular driving lessons.

[Stuart]

crap posts removed.

Alex you started the flack so yourself and RJ have no ground to stand on in that case. (if you wish to whinge, pm me)

Well done for passing yer theory.... no idea how the funk I'd do with a new test lol

[NovaLad]

Cheers Stu

EDIT:- You can have my old 35 questions cd if you want lol...

[Stuart]

If I get a ban Ill have to nick it off you :p

[NovaLad]

Well actually that would be useless because it's now 50 questions but was offering it you for a laugh if you wanted to try it out as i don't need it... lol

[Jack]

50 questions?! Christ...

As said, use the crash course (perhaps "crash" isn't the best way to describe it lol) as a refresher and make sure you get a decent amount of practice tests in before you do the real one!

Incidentally, what is the "correct" (i.e. what they want you to say) answer to the bright headlights one?

[NovaLad]

It was seriously something like ''Cover your eyes with your hand'', That was on the 35 questions cd that i have But never saw it during theory test.

I answered use your sun visor (LMAO!) because cover your eyes with your hands sounded a bit silly.

EDIT- When i buy a new drive for my comp i will find out the exact question and screenshot it.

[Jack]

:eek:

Just goes to show the "correct" answer isn't the best one! Yikes...

btw, if you do get dazzled, drop your eyes down and follow the verge or edge lines on the road. Thats how I survive, and with the celica being low I get dazzled a lot lol

[Stuart]

try driving a car where your head is at number plate height to most cars!

[NovaLad]

What cars that?

[Stuart]

my gayness vx220

[John]

Theory test? Meh, i never had to do one of those, had 11 lessons too.

[Jcb]

seems a good time to point out that although it sounds silly, i really don't think the practical tests are perticulaly valid. they should at least be restrcutured. i have a few mates who have passed first time and are awful drivers. yet i know other people who it took them many attempts and are better drivers for it.
i got failed on my last test on a reverse park. the guy thought i was going to hit the car i parked behind when driving back out. yet full lock reversing into a space is exactly the same as full lock going out of the space. annoying or what!!!

[NovaLad]

full lock into a bay space ?? or on a street?

well i beg to differ but i know numerous clever little ****s that boast they passed there test first time etc then within a week theyve stacked there motor!

hmmm passing first time realy makes you a better driver dont it

[Jack]

I passed first time, and was said to be a pretty good driver. I didn't really know how good I was as I wasn't experienced enough at the time to pass comment, but I do recall driving as much as possible to get more experience.

Depends from person to person really, it doesn't matter how many times it took to pass your test, as its how you drive afterwards that counts. And if you drive like you had to on your test, then you're asking for trouble IMO lol

[Alex.]

All you've gotta do on your test is just be confident. Which I didn't do very well, hence why I took my test a few times! lol
But I think if I'd have passed first time I wouldn't have been as confident to go out driving then I was when I eventually did pass.
You do appriciate passing something more when you've failed it a few times. Whatever it is. lol

[NovaLad]

Couldn't agree with you more on that one, Failed my HP on my Theory twice by 1 point and i was gutted both times and felt like ''Hurting'' the Dsa lol!

Then felt like giving up till another mate passed and it just made me want to pass it more so re-booked it and passed and i havn't been this happy about something in a long time lol.

Infact the last time i was this happy i had just got my CBT and insurance for my moped haha

[Adam]

well i beg to differ but i know numerous clever little ****s that boast they passed there test first time etc then within a week theyve stacked there motor!

I think something like 60% of people who pass first time, have a crash within there first year of driving,Lol.
Whereas only about 20%(or something like that), of 2nd time passers do.


Novalad-Congrats on passing, now you can have a crack at the proper test lol

[goldengraham]

well done on passing :D
like above, book the practical :p

[Stuart]

took me 5 days to have my first crash/bump after passing first time.... atelast it wasnt a bad one.

[NovaLad]

I'm very carefull on the roads i know what they are like i spent a year on a moped on them.

I know when you can and can't push ya luck... lol

And know how to talk to the feds if i get pulled lol.

[Jcb]

they say once you've passed your test you start to learn how to drive properly anyway. learning to drive with an instructor is learning how to pass a test. guess it's a bit strange but you just have to do it until you have that green card!

[smcgsi16v]

Well done Novalad.
I done my test that long ago I didn't even have to do a theory, so christ nows what there about.

I crashed twice in a year after passing my test, a head in a mini and then in my first Nova I crashed into a pig car. But hav'nt had an accident since.

So good luck with the practical, just don't drive like a **** when you do pass.

[carls nova sri]

in passed my theory first time and my test on the second attempt plus had no lessons. just drove with my mam at the side of me for a few weeks

[just vaux trev]

:thumb:

[NovaLad]

Thanks for the congrats etc...

I hope this crash course guy doesn't charge me an arm and a leg lol

[Dar]

I hope this crash course guy doesn't charge me an arm and a leg lol
Nah just your testicles:D Congrats on the theory pass.

[NovaLad]

Had my lesson with crash course man (dave) today, did a few maneuvers etc... and he recks a 1 week crash course of 2 hour lessons for 5 days in a row and on the 5th day do my test also which i'm happy with.

Just got to wait for him to ring me in a day or 2 with a test date now woop!!!

:):):):)

[FUSION X16XE]

unfortunatly if were you live is anythink like down here ull be waiting ages ive got my practiacal on the 20th of this month and i booked that about 2months ago lol but theres always cancilations (sp)

[NovaLad]

Nope you get everything twice as quick when you do crash course because they specialise in passing people quick lol.

If theirs a free space i could do it next week but i'm busy next week lol.

[goldengraham]

yeh its a long waiting list here to, i failed first and got a cancellation 2 weeks after

[mowgli]

don't think that what you do on the pizza bike will help on your car test.....
no popping it on the pavement, undertaking, or trying to pull 14year old girls with it will be any use at all. Maybe a tight fitting skirt will help!
