Well good luck for the test and a hpaay birthday :lol:

I remember that when I took my motorcycle test I ran someone over who jumped out in front of me but I still passed as the eximiner hadn't popped up on that part of the exam route :? :roll: That was in '79

I failed my first driving test on the first attempt in 83 when I accidentally let go of the steering wheel. I was sat at a junction for 20 minutes holding the steering wheel too tightly and my hands were sweating buckets. When I finally pulled out the vinyl wheel slipped thrugh my hands which was an instant fail :twisted:

I'm sure that you will do better!

In Belgium it's kind of weird. You first do your theoretical test (traffic rules, signs, etc.). Once you pass that you get 18 hours of lessons spread over about a week or two. Then you have minimum 3, maximum 9 months you're allowed to drive ON YOUR OWN. If you fail your test after for example three months, the examinator just lets you get back into your car and you have six more months to learn to drive, or kill someone in trying to....

I passed after the three months :wink:

Best of luck with the driving test! :D

I remember mine, they were a total nightmare. I took 5 tests before I passed. I think the examiner took a disliking to me
