The driving test

[jorge]

I have it in a month, any tips on passing it? Ive heard its a tricky test and they fail you for stupid things.:o

Passed mine a couple of months ago. A lot easier than I thought and once you're able to drive competently you should be grand. Get a few lessons in advance of taking it(even if you think ya don't need it) and practice as much as you can. Don't forget to look over rules of the road and under bonnet of car.

Keep checking your mirrors.You got to learn how to drive to pass the test which is slightly different than just learning to drive.

remember to drive just off the centre of the lane. Overuse side and rearview mirrors. Indicate for everything. Practice reversing round a corner and parralel parking as much as you can. Take a few pre-test lessons with an instructor and he'll take you round all the routes used by your testing centre. You'll be grand, i passed mine first time even though i got a few of the pre-test "rules of the road" questions wrong.

Good luck hooped scum. :p
