Good luck everyone. Passed my test today 14/02/2024 on my second attempt with 2 minors. Couldn’t really afford an instructor so I thought myself in my home country in our compound before coming here. Failed the test the first time because I didn’t see the light change from green to amber so by the time I was crossing it was already red & I got a major fault for jumping the traffic light & 3 minors. I was so disappointed because it was close to the test centre where I was about to finish my test, so in a nut shell, I failed almost at the very end. However this time around I was more focused & confident. My examiner & I talk all the way through 😅
Good luck everyone ! I’ve passed my driving test on my 6th attempt after trying 3 times with my driving instructor and failed I decided to try with my own car I manage to pass at my third attempt, and to be honest examinor do feel stressed when they don’t have any control of the situation.. and I could feel his stress and ending up stress even more… on my last successful attempt I just spoke to them as if I was talking to myself on all the actions that I was going to take and could definitely feel that it reassured them cause they knew exactly what was going in my head… I thought I would never gonna make it, I am a very anxious person and hate exams…
Great tips, I also had an examiner called Chris last year who was really chatty but that suited me as I love to chat and he put me at ease as he was so friendly. I said I’d like to chat but if I needed to focus on something I’d go quiet, we chatted and even a few jokes and I did pass. My instructor said I could pass if I could control the nerves which I did.
That's amazing Alison congratulations! 👏 Yes it's nice when they put you at ease. It really helps with the nerves as long as you don't let it distract you.
Hi Josh. I'm a driving instructor in Liverpool. Just happened on your channel. Really good sound advice. I shall be steering my students to your channel. Cheers Derek.
Passed 3 weeks ago with 5 minors. Honestly don’t be scared of the examiner, if you can chat and stay focused at the same time it will take your mind away from the occasion. They are not scary, I stalled and corrected myself and my examiner told me to take a deep breath. Just relax and do your best
The exact same as me. I passed today, stalled, and thought I failed early in test. Was sat talking to him about motorbikes throughout the test. Got to the end and I said "Listen, I know I failed but the thing that gets me mad is how long you have to wait between tests". He turns to me and says "What have you failed on?". I passed with two minors. I legit shouted and was so happy.
@@craigs2023well done. Great feeling ain’t it. It’s mad when your trying to learn to drive you never can see yourself on the road then you pass and time passes and you look back on it. I passed in January it’s now June I’ve moved from Scotland to England and made many journeys back and forth it seems so long ago I passed
Hi Josh,just wanted to say a big thank you for your driving test videos. They helped me get my full practical license here in New Zealand as an international license holder. I just made it today:) your tips were spot on and really made a difference. Thanks a bunch!
i don't have any family with a car or a licence so had to pay for lessons over 70 hours at this point my last test was cancelled due to snow was like a gut punch but am determined to get this done now
I live in the 2nd hardest place to drive round which is Bradford but I'm starting my lessons on the way to getting a license for the sake of my career prospeects. But I love these tips and it has boosted my confidence. :)
Had a test at 8:20 and they cancel it at 7:30 same day. Next test available is in over a month and instructor won’t give me money back for hiring his car for the test. Thanks dvsa
Yeh that's awful if you contact the dvsa and explain that they may refund you for the instructor. Can't promise but definitely worth ago if they cancelled
great video, great advice and on a personal note, good to see driving footage of the area i actually learned and passed my test on, Nostalgia!!!! up the stoke!!!
I recently failed adi pt2 test, think it was nerves and confidence. No reason though to be nervous or not confident, I drive about 800 miles per week, to quite a good standard. I did things on the test that I never do on my own, or on my driving lessons leading up to the test. Forgetting speed limits on roads I use daily, passing speed limit signs and instantly forgetting what it said.
Happens all the time including me. I was just lucky I passed but I remember saying the examiner "I'm unbelievable nervous" and he was just like "focus on the road" 😆
Thanks so much for the tips Josh! I have passed my driving test today, I am so happy! I loved the one where you said we start at 100% and I used that today and it really helped! Once again thanks so much!!
Saw the P plate in the thumbnail and wondered what everyone’s experience is using these? I took my daughter for 25 hours, in addition to instructor based lessons, she passed last week with 3 minors. During lessons I was surprised to learn how recklessly people drive around a learner. Pulling out in front of them, racing to get ahead of them and swerving in, not letting them out or move across. Ironically, people weren’t giving her an easy time, they were more reckless… Anything to get ahead. I worry that P plates attract the same mentally from the idiot brigade, and having them would actually achieve the opposite….
My Mum and Dad have actually been taking me out driving for over 3 years now and both have said "You'll Pass no problems" and I still feel nervous. I've never had an accident, I've had my temper tested before but learnt to stop and control it, still learning minor mistakes my Dad noticed and fixing those mistakes by practising whilst I drive. My Mum has fallen asleep at times when I'm taking her out for a drive into the countryside, and she even mentions that I drive better then my Dad, who is an absolute meance on the roads I can tell you. This video actually calmed me down a lot
Well on the comment about never going to see that examiner again. Not for me! I've failed 5x in a row now and gone through them all and 1 I've had twice now. I've been having lessons on/off for 10 years and my instructor is confident I can drive and I just seem to always have 1 small blip on my test. I don't talk and only if they speak to me while we are waiting at traffic lights as in chit chat. I always know when I've failed because they ALWAYS start trying to chat to me after my serious at the next traffic lights we come to. I have Autism ans ADHD so I think that's why it's taking me so long as I drive almost perfect now on lessons and with other people. But the change in routine with a test I think it causes my head to go into overload knowing I'm on a test. Others I've spoken to with ASD and ADHD have said it's took them up to 9x to pass so I have hope. But then I've seen videos where people have said once you've failed 3x somethings seriously wrong and you shouldn't drive so that made me feel like rubbish. I'm almost 32 and I have a 17yo brother in law who's just passed his test 1st time with 0 minors and I'm just so frustrated as I've wanted this my whole life. Its one of my main bucket list goals before I die and I can't even do that :(
Very sorry to hear that dragon fire. Yes it might be a massive overload but you are not the only one out there and you can definitely still do it. Just have to see it as a 10k rather than a sprint😁. My brother in law and sis in-law both took 8-9 tries on there driving test and now they drive. Not well but we don't tell them that.😆 Point being try not get down and just keep going at it till it happens and have faith in yourself!
Have my 4th test tomorrow, Genuinely terrified, I never knew you could have a radio on and i am very tempted to try it as I do believe it could calm me down a bit. 2 or my 3 past tests were ''unlucky'' according to my instructor. In my last test I hit the curb on the way into the test center at the end of the test. Examiner said afterwards that I threw it away. I am so bloody nervous for this. Even though I have done it 3 times and I know how it all works. I am actually so so nervous.
Sorry to hear that alessa. Just keep going at it and you will pass. The important thing is not to give up. It is such a nerve racking thing though I do get it.
@@JoshRamwell my thinking is to TRY to tell myself it’s just a little drive and I’m giving a lift to someone from the side of the road. I never knew about being allowed to turn on the radio. So If the examiner is okay with it. Radio 2 is going on a nice low volume, just to break the ice and break the silence and hopefully. Tomorrow is the day I finally pass 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
All these people that say i had 4 lessons and passed first no faults on line are failing to tell the full story that they also had practice. Not just 4 hours driving. I had 6 lessons and passed first time, but i also had 1 hour practice every day after work plus a weeks driving on holiday around Newcastle with family. Plusi had being shown how to drive from 13 on private land. So i had a lot more experience than just 6 lessons on the road. Take what people say online with lessons with a pinch of salt they migh of had a lot more practice despite only have a few lessons. Its all an ego thing to say i had 5 lessons and passed first time rarther than say 5 lessons plus another 60 hours practice. Another person as had 20 lessons but no practice. The person with 5 lessons plus 60 hours hours has simply had more experience and stands a better chance of passing
Ty Josh watching your videos helped me pass you make feel more confident in myself just watching your videos thank you ❤ keep up the good work 💯 also it's not good when I stamped in dog poo 💩 before my test 😂
Hi Josh , I have my test tomorrow after I got cancelled last minute last week! It’s during rush hour and I’m quite nervous because of the timing , is there any tips you can give me for when it’s busy like it will be? Thanks!
Hey Kelsey, the best advice for a busy time like that is to expect traffic and think about people because that's when the zebra crossings and pedestrian crossings will be busy and when you are most likely to miss someone crossing or traffic lights changing. Take your time with the traffic, try keep up with the flow but don't rush. Good luck let us know how it goes 😁
Good luck tomorrow! I failed twice and then was so so nervous for the next one but I had the loveliest examiner for the 3rd one and I told him at the start how nervous I was. He told me just to take it easy, don’t rush, take time to think things through but don’t OVER think, and just look at it as another drive with my instructor. I passed with one minor. Let us know how you get on 😊
You are funny. Seriously, the information is good. I took your suggestion about booking anywhere in the World, joke UK and am now using an app to get a test in the test centre my driving instructor uses. I only, signed up yesterday and I've received approx 5 dates. I'm gonna check out your course.
Got my test on June 18th in a test centre with ONLY 2 examiners and hard to book into .... Let the battle commence!! You mentioned Wolverhampton... My hometown and I know my way round the place but I live in Stafford these days, shame my instructor doesn't know Wolvo as I'd love to rally him around the city 😂
I've got my test on the 1st of October 2024, and I have not stopped being anxious, but I have confidence since my mum has let me practice in her car for the past couple of months (plus 70+hours with a instructor) but I know I will leave room for failure and accept if I have a bad day its OK..but obviously I would really like to pass 1st time
I’ve got my test tomorrow; failed my first test and I’m absolutely bricking it for tomorrow! Trying not to put too much pressure on it but the nerves are getting to me! Your videos are helping, gonna spend today trying to relax and accept whatever happens!
Hello Josh I don’t know why you slowed down on doing the mock test videos but if I may request , please could you do more mock videos. It’s quite helpful following the routes along with the driver at the comfort of one’s home. Imagine making a mistake in a driving lesson and then remembering Josh has a video for that particular route? Easy peasy , switch on your tv and follow Josh’s video on that particular route on a mock test. I know many viewers are silent viewers but I bet they enjoy it as much as I do . There’s very limited TH-cam resources for routes in stoke-on-Trent . Thank you .
The driving standards of students released over the last 20 years has dropped by far. No awareness of their surroundings, no courtesy to other road users, relying too much on modern technology spacial awareness is shocking. A 3 point turn turns out to be a 19 point turn. the list goes on. The standards of some are way below par from a driver that had been taught years ago. There are many drivers should not be on the road, even after they have passed their test !!
This is so specific but say they get you to park on the right and get you to reverse back two car lengths- are you okay to reverse back and stop at a drive way? Or do u keep going back until you’re clear from one?
Hello I have a question what happens when a police car with his sirens on goes through a red light and almost hits someone in intersection? Who would be in the wrong? is it a major fault?
You have to just keep getting out there. My sister in law was the same 5 years ago but she's okay now. It just takes time. Lots of small journeys out your comfort zone.
In my driving test I ended up chatting to my examiner during slower easier village roads but then I got to the tricky roundabouts and faster roads it was complete silence
@@JoshRamwell thank you for replying. I am definitely gonna report him . He is so aggressive and rude during lessons . Which really makes my confidence low 😞
One of the instructors I had, accused me of fraud because I was 16 in my picture ID which look different to what I look like now at 23. She made me more nervous as a result before my test began.
i prefer not to speak if i speak i will be in big trouble, in big trouble.. And i do not want to be in big trouble Yesterday i was travelling on the bus to go somewhere The bus was waiting behind in front of the queue in a four way temporary traffic light here in south west London While waiting, a car literally speed through while this was on red light and luckily no accident happened. Very dangerous, i repeat very dangerous josh. Yet, the DVSA Say i am not a safe driver What a joke. A lot went through my mind of course A driver does this idiotic thing and i am not seem as a safe uk driver Biggest joke of 2023 We all know why i failed, i put so much pressure on myself during the six month wait for a test i am aware some will say i have a attitude i am only reflecting on what i saw while sat on the bus 🤷♂️ For those who think I’m a hater, I’m not. I’m simply annoyed at myself on failing. i can drive Manuel and i know the understanding of the clutch gear shift. As i say, i prefer not to speak.
Failed my last test, pulling out of a junction, turning right a car coming from a left bend come speeding round as I was already pulling out to turn I failed because they had to slow down because they were speeding? I was so gutted. Got my test in two hours and I’m even more nervous than before because of this 😂
It's a shame really, because people read the Highway Code,and are very worried about the test,but most of you will be very poor drivers on a short time,you will never read the Highway Code ever again. It's just a fact of life.
Lives are priceless, road's are slipary dark nights country lanes poor visibility, Animals crossing rail bridge coming down road's ditchies, no electricity emergency petrol points phone's, Car's are built like toy Car's not robust, young people generation support is needed, Having a passenger's who have no knowledge off danger 's out there just fancy pushing a new drive to give life's, Dangerous while the individual laughing joking on their mobile phone Dangerous, It's very bad on road's unmarked police emergency service speeding , STOP ✋️ selling diving lessons like no one matters , Parents Grandparents under pressure to buy small cars as first car very dangerous

It becomes a battle of the minds when you are in the car with a driving test examiner. And that is a battle with only one winner. And one failer.
There sure is, hopefully it's you 🤣🙌
@@JoshRamwell you're hoping I fail? Lovely
@@jewelsgleaming401come on that's clearly not what he meant

@@ThesamuraikaiDid you pass?
@@thebritishteacup8677did you pass? How was it?
Failed my driving test with the same examiner lol so I did see him again meh got my 3rd test Saturday coming wish me luck 🤞🏽
I’ve got my test tomorrow; failed my first test and I’m absolutely bricking it for tomorrow! Trying not to put too much pressure on it but the nerves are getting to me! Your videos are helping, gonna spend today trying to relax and accept whatever happens!
Did you pass
GREAT VIDEO 👍
Glad you enjoyed it
Hello Josh
I don’t know why you slowed down on doing the mock test videos but if I may request , please could you do more mock videos. It’s quite helpful following the routes along with the driver at the comfort of one’s home. Imagine making a mistake in a driving lesson and then remembering Josh has a video for that particular route? Easy peasy , switch on your tv and follow Josh’s video on that particular route on a mock test. I know many viewers are silent viewers but I bet they enjoy it as much as I do . There’s very limited TH-cam resources for routes in stoke-on-Trent . Thank you .
Hey Vickie I will get some done for you in the next few weeks. 😁
Got my 4th test tomorrow, hopefully 4th time's the charm😅
how did it go?
My lessons tomorrow. In 13 hours. Absolutely shitting bricks
The driving standards of students released over the last 20 years has dropped by far. No awareness of their surroundings, no courtesy to other road users, relying too much on modern technology
spacial awareness is shocking. A 3 point turn turns out to be a 19 point turn. the list goes on. The standards of some are way below par from a driver that had been taught years ago. There are many drivers should not be on the road, even after they have passed their test !!
This is so specific but say they get you to park on the right and get you to reverse back two car lengths- are you okay to reverse back and stop at a drive way? Or do u keep going back until you’re clear from one?
Hello I have a question what happens when a police car with his sirens on goes through a red light and almost hits someone in intersection? Who would be in the wrong? is it a major fault?
Thank you ☺️
Mine made conversation passed first time. Got a car insured it n im terrified to use it still. 😅
You have to just keep getting out there. My sister in law was the same 5 years ago but she's okay now. It just takes time. Lots of small journeys out your comfort zone.
Good advice .
Already passed but I still watch these 😂
Well done Sophie hope you are getting lots of driving in 😁🙌

In my driving test I ended up chatting to my examiner during slower easier village roads but then I got to the tricky roundabouts and faster roads it was complete silence
Got my second test tomorrow!

Hi, please, can you recommend that which app is the best? About theory test to be instructed driver.
DVSA app.
Coming from someone originally from Dudley/Wolverhampton….do not go there!!! Newcastle under Lyme is a much easier test avoid all of Birmingham lol
Agreed 😁🙌
I passed at Dudley but not planning on driving to Birmingham!
You having a laugh? The A500 up Stoke is like a road to hell 😮 I prefer Wolvo or Stafford lol
I have my test on wednesday, so scared! haha wish me luck 😊😅
how did it go?
Got my test tomorrow
Is a driving instructor allow to scream and shout at you during lessons ?
Not unless they went to get reported 😆
@@JoshRamwell thank you for replying. I am definitely gonna report him . He is so aggressive and rude during lessons . Which really makes my confidence low 😞
my test is tomorrow (tuesday) hopefully i pass
Good luck my friend 🤞
How did it go?
I hope i pass my test on coming monday IA
I make 100 pound a day working 8 hours a day.
After expense, i made 50 pound a day.
Pray for me,,
test on 27th of june 8.00am hope i pass
I have exam today please pray for me 🤲🙏
Oh, yeah I can speak for England, so I'll limit that on the test just to concentrate better
Yes and me, it gets me in trouble sometimes 🤣
I had the same examiner twice so changed the test centre. Screw that pressure again 😰
I turned up in a t shirt jeans and hoody.
I have 8 fails în luton with examinaters and with my instructor I have 0 minors 0 fails
That's stressful
Test tomorrow 😳
One of the instructors I had, accused me of fraud because I was 16 in my picture ID which look different to what I look like now at 23. She made me more nervous as a result before my test began.
Hope I pass
I have practical test today
How did it go?
"Leave a comment bellow"??
I think you mean, "below".
I think I probably do
i prefer not to speak
if i speak i will be in big trouble, in big trouble..
And i do not want to be in big trouble
Yesterday i was travelling on the bus to go somewhere
The bus was waiting behind in front of the queue in a four way temporary traffic light here in south west London
While waiting, a car literally speed through while this was on red light and luckily no accident happened.
Very dangerous, i repeat very dangerous josh.
Yet, the DVSA Say i am not a safe driver
What a joke.
A lot went through my mind of course
A driver does this idiotic thing and i am not seem as a safe uk driver
Biggest joke of 2023
We all know why i failed, i put so much pressure on myself during the six month wait for a test
i am aware some will say i have a attitude
i am only reflecting on what i saw while sat on the bus 🤷♂️
For those who think I’m a hater, I’m not.
I’m simply annoyed at myself on failing.
i can drive Manuel and i know the understanding of the clutch gear shift.
As i say, i prefer not to speak.
Sorry to hear that but great advice. I see it all the time. A lesson learned and thank you for sharing ☺️🙌
@@JoshRamwell you’re welcome
Failed my last test, pulling out of a junction, turning right a car coming from a left bend come speeding round as I was already pulling out to turn I failed because they had to slow down because they were speeding? I was so gutted. Got my test in two hours and I’m even more nervous than before because of this 😂
That's a shame! Doesn't matter though you will nail it this time 😁🙌
@@JoshRamwell passed with 4 minors 🤣🤟🏻
@@courtney9139 of course you did! 😁 Well done Courtney!
Hi
completed 80 mock tests and passed 73 of them.
Am all good for real test ?
im sure your not allowed to drive your parents car even if they sit there with u
Yoy do, but you need Provisional Driver Licence, aka Learner's DL and they need to have a valid UK DL.
It's a shame really, because people read the Highway Code,and are very worried about the
test,but most of you will be very poor drivers on a short time,you will never read the Highway Code ever again.
It's just a fact of life.
Lives are priceless, road's are slipary dark nights country lanes poor visibility,
Animals crossing rail bridge coming down road's ditchies, no electricity emergency petrol points phone's,
Car's are built like toy Car's not robust, young people generation support is needed,
Having a passenger's who have no knowledge off danger 's out there just fancy pushing a new drive to give life's,
Dangerous while the individual laughing joking on their mobile phone Dangerous,
It's very bad on road's unmarked police emergency service speeding ,
STOP ✋️ selling diving lessons like no one matters ,
Parents Grandparents under pressure to buy small cars as first car very dangerous
got my test in a few hours, shitting it
how did it go
