So I have my road test finally (im 18) at 3pm. If I pass many good things will happen , like ill be able to get a transfer back to my old store (works in a supermarket and had to transfer because brother got transfered to another store because he was a great produce manager so i went to a store closer to my house) And ill be able to leave this hellhole store finally and work with my friends. And I dont need a ride to school anymore and ill be able to go one town over and hang out with a chick im trying to get currently and do a whole bunch of other stuff. If I fail all this will be pushed back another month! I leave in 1 hour for one more lesson from my driving teacher then i go to the road test place and take the road test itself. Anyone got any key tips? I know , remember to check mirrors, hand over hand, blinkers, look before going. Anything else i shoulld remember?

good luck. wear your seat belt. dont hit the curb when double parking. just picture the instructor in his/her underwear.

I failed my road test the first time. I hit a guard rail. Don't do that.

When pulling away from the curb remember to put your blinker on. Especially after you do the parallel parking. People forget to do it because they excited that they parked correctly.

<p>if you make a mistake, gloss over it. i hit the curb during my driving test, but i didn't acknowledge it. i also couldn't speak because i was sick. and my "tester" was a former marine. yet i passed.</p><p> </p><p>oh and dont forget a lot of ID. i almost missed my appointment coz i had t o drive home to get my birth certificate. </p>

I was close on my 1st test, but failed. On the second time i had the course memorized and I turned before he said to and he yelled at me to not turn. So i didn't, turned my blinker off and cruised right through a light that had just turned red. An automatic failure on the the light turning out of the DMV. It was an awkward rest of the test as you can't just turn back even though you failed. Third test I passed with 25 out of 25 points and the instructor said i got an early christmas prestent. I hope you don't get as nervous as I get. </p>

Don't let your hand "accidently" fall into the tester's lap...pretending to do hand signals!!!!

As your driving put your left hand at 12 o'clock and the other arm around the instructor and ask him if he'd like to park.

I got a 50 out of a 35 limit -.- , i thought i did great. She said I should of let a guy at an intersection go before me even though he stopped and i went. I did the parallel park pretty good i thought, she says i wasn't observant enough. I fucking looked all ways , i did the 3 point turn pretty good , though i forgot to look to my right when at the end of it when going left. I dont see why that makes sense because if there is a car coming it doesnt matter because im getting out of there way and they cant get around me either way so wtf! She said my turns werent good enough that i didnt have good enough control. I think i got a shitty examiner. I know im not a bad driver. Now ill have to deal with "did you pass?" from everyone tommorow.

I failed mine too the first time. No biggie. I even got the same scum bubble that failed me the first time and he remembered me! When I did my commercial licence, I also failed that road test too on the first time, but aced it on the second. Twice is a charm! Go back to the DMV and get a new appointment fast.
