    I am finally in the ‘I passed but am still watching’ crew. The best advice I can give is to remember that the examiner is a person, and they’re at work! They’ve seen people all day every day and in the least rude way possible, you’re not special! It’s not a test, it’s a check to see if you’re safe to be out on your own. If you’re not safe, you don’t want to pass! You don’t wanna be out there on your own if you’re gonna hurt yourself or someone else. Stay as calm as you can, as soon as you meet the examiner you’ll start to feel better. Deep breaths, you’ll get there!! Try not to think about all the reasons you want to pass and instead think about where you’re gonna drive. Think ‘dot to dot’ one thing at a time!! Good luck!

      Totally agreed. Better to fail and work on it until you're capable, than passing when you're not ready or due to lucky and go out their and cause danger to yourself and others. Traffic accidents are mistakes that can't be fixed.

      Please may I ask how many majors you had in ur mock test 2 weeks before, my test is on the 11th of October and I had 3 majors in a mock test ( my instructor is very harsh) do you think I should give it a go because I do feel confident in myself or should I cancel it?

      I passed yesterday - first attempt, but take my thoughts with a grain of salt.
      Two weeks prior to my test I also had serious faults and a series of mistakes in a mock test route (I even had one serious mistake in the first mock test of my last lesson!). Initially, my instructor even suggested I delay my test, and by then I’ve had well over the recommended driving lessons hours!
      However, I was determined and made sure that I focused on the areas I made mistakes to iron them out by my test date.
      Also, take greater ownership over your last few driving lessons. Your instructor should be open to listen to your suggestions and try to go over/practise the routes where you made the errors.
      Lastly, maintain your confidence, keep practising and tell yourself: “I will pass”. When you’re a learner/new driver mistake will happen, the key thing is to note them down and improve. Remember making a mistake/minor fault doesn’t automatically mean you will fail, stay focused and you’ll surprise yourself.
      All the very best!!

Everything I've seen and read about it on TH-cam etc is overwhelmingly positive. I want something a little different than the popular cars you see everywhere. I've also considered the Peugeot 208 (newest generation), Suzuki Swift, Kia Picanto and a few others but the Ibiza is currently favourite. I still wear Adidas trainers BTW ;-)

Only had two lessons before christmas and used those dual control cars twice from Arnold Clark with my cousin and father. These videos were a massive help and I'd safely say they contributed to me passing. Good luck to everyone that has a test coming up!! Stay calm, the examiner wants you to pass.

    Wanna say thanks Rich for being very insightful.
    My best advice to anyone taking their test soon - try to get in the mindset that you’re having a driving lesson with a new instructor, just keep calm and focus - they really aren’t bad they want you to drive the best you can ! Be confident :)

    Thanks for all the work you put in during your spare time Richard, I have been doing lessons with my dad who is a driving instructor for about 2 months now and I already have my test booked for the end of October. It seems like a very long time away and I am continuously dreaming about the day I can drive my own car, but I'm sure with your videos and extra training, the time will fly by. Take care Richard, the un sung hero of TH-cam.

    I passed with two minors. Just remember examiners are human, make them feel safe and comfortable. Apart from following the rules of the road make sure you also slow down over humps, brake smoothly, slow down before you turn. Remember you can’t fail for checking the mirrors too much, so check them. Another thing that helped me is positive self talk as I was on my way to my test, tell yourself you are a driver, you drive safe, you know exactly what you’re doing. Good luck to anyone with an upcoming test, you will pass if u set ur mind to it

    Just wanted to thank you for all your amazing content! I've been watching all your videos while learning myself how to teach my daughter to drive. We watched this video on the morning of her test and it was just the trick to get her focused, we also watched your two step junctions video and I noticed right on our practice run that she was staying in 3rd gear too late on some roundabouts and was then rushing her decisions, so we put that process right into play and I also made her say to me "I can go" which added another second of thought time (obv in her head on the test), it just totally changed her whole approach to a much slicker, smoother one. ( You are a great presenter by the way!!) She said she put it all into practice on her test and knew she was doing well but on the last part had 3 cyclists in front of her and was thinking "oh no!!!" but she did well, overtook the first as there was a gap between that one and the first two, then remained calm and didn't try to overtake when it wasn't safe.. luckily they turned off and she passed with only 1 minor.
