Hi jimbo. Just passed my driving test thank you jimbo....your video are very helpful and great full...appreciate 👍
Congratulations mate on passing!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Hi Jimbo.. I got my Aussie License On 3rd Feb in first go at Castle hill. I watched your videos and they were really helpful to me. Thank you very much❤❤
Congratulations mate on passing 1STGO at Castle Hill!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Hey, at 12:33, because the lanes are merging, do u have to left indicate and check over your shoulder or is that not needed?
You don't need signal but maybe check over your shoulder in case someone is merging on on you.
@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 thanks!
Hey, sorry for asking so many questions haha, but in a 3-point turn if u somehow don't have enough space to do it in 3 turns, like if there's a car parked that's blocking u can u do a 5-point turn for it to still be valid?
Yes just remember to do all the same checks when you back up again and then again before you go forward.
Hi Jimbo, After watching all of your videos I was able to pass my driving test yesterday on my first attempt as an overseas license holder. Your videos were full of valuable advice.
Hi Jimbo, Thanks a lot for your videos!! Isn't it compulsory to indicate every time while making a 3-point turn?
Only when you pull in and pull out when starting it.
Hi Jimbo, I just passed my test at Warriewoord square, thanks so much. Your videos are amazing! If it wasnt for your videos I`m sure I would had fail. Cheers mate!
Congratulations mate on passing at Warriewood!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Been watching your videos Mr Jim. Just did my driving test today and it went exactly on the places you went. Passed 🎉 Thankyou lots!
Congratulations mate on passing!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
18:59 couldn't u have just gone right into the right lane instead of switching lanes after or can u not do that?
@@lucid-ge2cr Yes you could do that.
Hi Jimbo, I’m an overseas license holder here on the Central Coast. I just wanted to say a huge thank you for all your videos! You’re amazing-because of your detailed explanations, I passed my driving test on my first try last Friday. I truly appreciate your help. God bless you, and more power to you! Wishing you a blessed day every day, mate. 🫡👊 P.S. Please give me a shoutout in your next video so other applicants know how helpful your videos are. If they follow your guidance, they’ll definitely pass!
Can one of my hands leave the steering wheel while backing up?
Hi Jimbo after watching all your videos I passed in my first one. You are helping thousands of people. Thanks
Congratulations mate on passing 1STGO!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Hey Jimbo, I have my driving test on 14th march, Can i give test on my overseas driving license? Also, if i pass the test will i get full license?
Hi mate. Yes from my understanding Service NSW will still let you do one driving test even if your licence is deemed invalid. If you fail this test you will need to be on a Learner licence to attempt a second test. If you held your overseas licence more than 3 years then you will get a full licence when you pass.
I see my moms red misibushi
While doing reverse parallel park, the examiner won't mark the signals? He/she only marks the 360 check like right shoulder check, all mirrors, left should check, and back mirror check while reversing. Am I right? Thank you
They mark that you signal on approach. Check out back window regularly not just rear mirror.
good Advice, pleased I have been doing things right for quite a lot of years , just one more check you should add in is to just check carefully the vehicle in the roundabout doesen't have the right indicator flashing, some are very hard to see with some silly modern design cars, also hard to see with some nut case councils or RTA wanting gardens or signs , in the middle of these roundabouts that are of a height to obscure these car indicators.
Hi John yes you are right. Thank you for your input. Stay safe ✌️
Hi Jimbo, Wanted to thank you for all your videos and the way you explained everything clearly. Just passed and got my NSW full licence on my first attempt. Appreciate it🎉 🌹🌹🌹
Congratulations Elle on passing 1STGO!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂

Hi Jimbo, Got my full NSW license yesterday at North ryde. I watched all your videos and mock tests. It helped me a lot. Thanks for all the guidance and tips. You are doing great to the community. Keep doing the great work!
Hi Anup, congratulations on getting your NSW license. I have my test scheduled this Friday in North Ryde/Macquire centre. Can you share any tips please? What was the route taken? Thank you.
Hey Jimbo, your videos have been helpful so far but I have one small doubt. Let's say you and another driver both approach a "give way" sign (basically he is diagonally opposite to you). Now in this case, if you wanted to go straight and the other driver wants to turn right, who gets the priority to go first?
The driver going straight goes first. Then the driver turning right goes second.
hey driving test guy NSW, i passed first try at bankstown today and loved watching your videos in the lead up to the exam, they were so helpful
Congratulations mate on passing 1STGO!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Hi Jimbo Thanks for all the tips. pass in one take.

Congratulations mate on passing 1STGO at Macquarie Park!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Jumbo how far should we push in
It depends how big the intersection is, but at least up to the second crossing line.
Jimbo i passed first go! Massive thanks mate. Watched your videos every day for a few weeks beforethe test. Just bought you a coffee- keep up the good work!
Congratulations mate on passing 1STGO!!! Great work 👍 Thank you for your support and thank you for the coffee ☕
Hi Jimbo.. I am an overseas licence holder and passed today - got the full licence. Your videos helped a lot. Thank you
Congratulations mate on passing!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
How can I learn to drive with you?
All the info is here www.thedrivingtestguynsw.com.au
As you said that a learner's license is needed to get lessons even if you have an overseas license. Can I then book a test directly to get a full license, or will i get red P after passing the test? My overseas license is 6 years old.
Will i be allowed to use a 1996 Ford festiva for my driving test?
Yes.
Hi jimbo just got my full driving license it was really easy after watching your videos the instructor were really impressed thanks a lot 😊gonna buy you a coffee for sure
Congratulations mate on passing!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and thanks for the coffee ☕
Hi, Jimbo! Would you known if an overseas licence has been expired just last 30 Dec 2024, if the person can still take a driving test? Thanks!
@@sammplified1939 My understanding is that Service NSW will take you out once for a driving test with your situation.
Hey Jimbo! Very late! - You helped me get my red Ps back in 2021! Finally got my Full License in November last year! just wanted to say thank you!
@@fireaussie7511 Congratulations mate on gaining your full licence!!! Great work 👍
Hello Jimbo... How many maximum Observation error and how many signal to pass the driving check
3 observation errors or 3 signal errors and you are out !
Thank u mate@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424
If I enter the roundabout when the guy on the right-hand side is stopped, and since he has stopped and the oncoming path is clear, I move into the roundabout to turn right. If the guy on the right also slowly pushes into the roundabout at the exact same time I move in, will the examiner ask me to stop and fail me?
Well it really depends. What doesn't help is the bizarre roundabout rules that you give way to those already in the roundabout. So if you get on first you have priority. However it really gets down to this, at the moment you enter the roundabout, if you force the other car to have to brake and there is a near miss regardless of who gave way to who then you would normally get a fail. This will probably happen more with smaller roundabouts as the car on the right is closer. If you both enter at the same time and there is no near miss then should be no fail.
Just passed my driving test in the first time. Thank you, Jimbo. Your videos are really helpful! Great work!
Congratulations mate on passing 1STGO!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
My instructor said that you need to do full 360 scan, left to right even when pulling out from Kerb. Ur saying only do right side check. Is there a negative marking if i do full scan??
If you want to do full 360 scan then do it. I suggest do left side first and then right side. They don't mark left side but you need to check right side just before pulling out.
Can you do the test centre at tuggerah please.
Hi I recently took my driving test in Aubrun New South Wales, and I encountered a challenging situation at a stop sign near an intersection. I had to cross the main road to go straight, but my view to both sides was blocked by parked cars along the roadside. Adding to the difficulty, there was an uphill slope from my left, further obstructing my view of oncoming traffic. After coming to a complete stop at the stop sign, I slowly moved forward to where my car’s front was aligned with the parked cars to get a better view. However, I still couldn’t see clearly to my right. When I saw that there were no cars approaching from my right within my visible range, I began to move forward cautiously. At this point, a car approached from my left, and I stopped immediately. However, a car also came from my right, and since I had moved slightly past the alignment of the parked cars, the vehicle from my right had to maneuver around me. The examiner deemed this a hazardous situation and failed me, stating that I obstructed the intersection and created a dangerous condition. what is the best solution! thanks!

Thank you for your clarification
Hey i was wondering if i can use a car with illegal window tint on my driving test
Well you can try...you might even get away with it.
Do you need to do head checks when turning left or turning right?
@@ciscoenzo6827 It's a good question but cannot be answered with a yes or no. I have answered it in some videos particularly the head check video.
Hey Jimbo, this series is very helpful, it helped me pass 1st go. Thank you so much ....
@@sanmanborate8645 Congratulations mate on passing 1STGO!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Thank you
Thank you for your answer!
Hey Jimbo great video, I actually didnt know about the left and right on red check which you talk about at around 8:02, and was just wondering, why is that scan required?
You have to do the head checks before you leave the lights to see if anybody is running a red light to your left or right.
@@aegis2505 Yes as Christopher says you are checking to see if someone is running a red light. Go to the Dash Cams Australia channel and you will see this in action.
Hi Jim! question, if you are reversing trying to get out of a car park during the actual exam and somebody decided to go though, will you get a deduction should you stop? Even if you are already halfway done to complete the maneouver? Thank you!
@@NicholeBradleyPineda I would say that if the other car is about to hit you then stopping is good. If the other car stops and lets you out then don't stop.
Hi Jimbo, can I get a quote for a mock test costs around Castle Hill or any place that is convenient for you?
@@melisamendez6888 Hi Melissa unfortunately Castle Hill is not an area that is close to me. I would have to quote you 3 hours (1 hour there, 1 hour for the test and 1 hour back) This would currently equate to $255. The other problem is that I have no idea of the Castle Hill test routes. I have no idea where Castle Hill Service NSW is. So even if you wanted to.pay $255 I still would not be able to deliver a Castle Hill mock test.
I want to express my heartfelt gratitude! You are an amazing instructor. I just passed my test in Gregory Hills on my first try, even without any driving lessons, and I know I couldn't have done it without your videos. Thank you so much, Jimbo. You truly are the best! ❤️🌹💕
