Driving/ Theory Test


feeble!

Recommended Posts

Anybody else taken their theory test?

I took mine today, I was fairly bricking it as I'd done almost nothing to prepare for it (wasn't worried about the multiple choice, it's easy as fuck - the hazard perception's the bit that scared me).

Anyway, I passed mine with 34/35 for the multiple choice and 60/75 for the hazard perception, so I'm quite pleased at the moment.

Now all I gotta do is learn how to drive and take that damn practical test :)

hazard perception test? ouch. When I did my theory test (was either the first or second year of it's existence) I got 34 out of 35. Failed my practical test twice though...

On a related note I had to do a defensive driving course (or driver awareness training as it's otherwise known) for work recently. Was an interesting viewpoint to how my driving has changed in the 7 years since I passed my test. Apparently I ride the clutch too much, don't give myself enough time at junctions and don't use the handbrake enough.

when i did my test i had done enough for the multiple choice bits, but had only really found out about the hazard perception a day or two before doing mock tests at the bsm shoppy on on union street, i knew what i was looking for, but frankly had no clue as when i was actually supposed to be clicking or whatever, so i just scraped a pass on theat bit and did fairly well on the multiple choice

definately recommended to get some practise in beforehand, i wish i had... i know you can get dvds, and as i was learnign with a bsm instructor they have the place on union street with mock tests and so on set up, so definately have a look at those

still took me two goes to do the real test though, though that was due to a stupid mistake, and buggering up the reverse parking (after i knew i had made a stupid mistake ;)) the second time it went fine, except for the fact i had no clue where we were going - during lessons the instructor took me round all the routes they use in tests, just when i took the test it was someone from glasgow covering someone being ill, so went a completely different route...
