I was exactly like Kitty; would get so nervous before the test that I would either pull out or end up making mistakes because of the pressure of doing the test. I really struggled with the anxiety of feeling that my mistakes were being judged and it took a lot for me to overcome test nerves and just focus on driving and doing my best. It’s important to practice lots so you can learn how to react to different situations in driving and this will definitely help on your test even if you make a mistake you will know what to do to correct it and stay calm. Francis is a great instructor.
@@DrivingSchoolTV I passed in March! Funnily enough my mock test/ practice before the driving test was dreadful. My pre-test nerves kicked in right before my test; I managed to bump a curb when practising parallel park, managed to park in between 2 bay’s during a reverse park manoeuvre and even managed to drive into a culdesack when my instructor hadn’t told me to do anything except simply follow the road round. I took some rescue remedy my instructor gave to me shortly after and thankfully all those silly errors went out my system and I managed to conquer my nerves and pass! I was fortunate that I had a very informative instructor who was very calm and didn’t get angry with me unlike some previous instructors. My instructor knew I could drive and that it was just my anxiety surrounding the test rather than the actual driving. A lot of it is state of mind as you mention in your videos and knowing how to react and plan ahead!Your videos are really informative and show exactly how a driving instructor should be; calm, patient and informative. So thank you!
Yesssssssssssss wellll done Kitty CONGRATULATIONS 🎉🎉🎉🎉 WELCOME TO THE FREEDOM OF DRIVING!!!!!!!! I done mine at Hither Green too and my examiner made me feel nice and relaxed too I'm so happy for you 😊
Hi Francis, it’s Ash. I met you at the petrol station about 20 minutes ago. Thank you for doing this. Passed my test October last month with 3 minors. Your TH-cam channel helped me a lot. A good tip is talking through (or doing commentary driving) helped not only with the nerves, but also a good way of showing the examiner that you know how to drive during your driving test. Good luck to the lady in the video and to all learners out there!
@Francis thank you!! You’re doing a lot for learners and recent passers! I was so stoked yesterday that I forget to grab my jacket and not able to think clearly. Lol It was great seeing you in person as well as Mike!! Cheers!
i found best way to deal with nerves. i was told i ready at 40 hours but my nerves far from ready. i did extra 15 hours but those extra hours i went to much more challenging areas, all questions i had were answered much more tricky location than on test. so on test less thinking about the driving just concentrate on my breathing , mind set before so be it if i pass or not lets just go on nice relaxed journey . at some point during extra hours my mind set changed all i can do is my best and if i pass i pass took that pressure off me. and thankfully i took the extra hours because my test was around 57min to hour it felt never ending the last 15 mins stopped at lights my hands were shaking before moved of few deep breaths my mind i said just keep doing what you doing keep calm doing good. we got back so late all the other tests were out and only ones waiting for my examiner were waiting outside. normally hour test for banned drivers but my first ever test and we rarely stopped for traffic, maybe because i have some disability i don't know but felt never ending. 2 minors in the last 20 mins so passed first time so i feel the extra hours really helped . i was lucky position i save up before even started to learn so i had pot extra money ready, i had to pass first time because i feel it would cost me more than 15 hours to be ready again as my nerves were shot by end the hour test and without the extra changing hours i feel i would really struggled with my nerves even tho told i was ready i ramp up my hours per week. now 6 years in i still not change a thing i learnt so much extra esp how to manage my nerves
I've been doing it for over 3 due to pandemic, and moving 3 hours drive away from Midlands to Kent been here 2 years and finally found a good instructor in kent. Last test was June did 24 hour course took test examiner, was tapping the sat nav throughout my independent driving and put me off, also did something else at beginning I didn't feel comfortable with it at all by him tapping the sat nav with his pen so failed through being distracted at a T junction, 4th test next hope examiner is ok
Good advice. Unless you or theyre up for a chat completely ignore the examiner and what they're doing. And yes the radio is a great distraction from the awkward silence 😊
@DrivingSchoolTV thank you for advice radio sounds good. I've totally ignored the others in a nice way but 3rd examiner i had tapping sat nav was a distraction 😫
@karenFrench-u7v that I'd ls annoying I'd of told him if he don't I'm throwing it out of window. Or more sensible as you are not organised I'll pull over as you are distracting me and you csn get it sorted
@wrightwoodwork was annoying he was tapping it with his pen to say are you looking at the sat nav at one point I said I'm looking at the sat nav but I can't constantly look at it as I'm looking ahead
I have dyscalculia which means I get my left and right mixed up a lot, watching Kitty doing the reversing is very similar to me. It's really confusing because my head doesn't process things the same. It could be why she is struggling with it and a wee heads up for any other pupils out there.
She is thinking what not to do instead of what to do. Thier was nothing wrong with her starting position all she had to do was go I'm having that space so simply aim the left rear side of the car to the front left of the space. . That's the first bit to get correct in the control . When doing the observation dip the clutch and pause your movement slightly give a clance to your right for anyone coming or waiting . Then concentrate on the rear left getting to the front left of your space. Pause again check what's happening around you. Don't worry about what angle you are at any angle is fine. Some you will need to adjust later but not now. As long as you are say anything from 30 to 90 you are good . Some of it is just straight back or straighten up . Let's say you where at 30 and you haven't got a lot of lock on the way you have the whee turned put more on . The left side of the car is fine so forget about a little bit , your aim now is to make sure the right side of the car goes into the right side of the space . You will be a little bit blind on the right using the mirror but don't worry you can keep look out the the bsck window. Then check right mirror that you haven't gone too far right. Don't go over the line, not that it matter but in the future when their is cars next to you it does a little , you can steel a little bit of space from the space next to you within reason. The right side of the car has run wide with full lock on. It's fine just come out of the space and simply straighten up so you are more in line with the space or less of an angle than when you started. Now it's simply gping back check left and right and straighten up and hey presto you've done it. It doesn't matter that you need to readjust. Francis should have said a little bit sooner i feel about reversing left or right into a space at the back of the car park. Which would give you more time in your head to plan. Don't worry about it being perfect as long as you know how to re adjust and how to fix it it perfect in the real world . On a lesson go to a car park on a busy day and you choose one that scares you a little or challenging for you maybe not scares you but is difficult due to other things like junctions cars stopped waiting. The reason it will help even though you will hate it is that by leaning what to do in that environment and you will get their with a few adjustments, you will get their and you will have a massive rush of endorphins and go I can do this which will boost your confidence and that space you struggled with you will go I can do that with my eyes closed.
On a lesson why not go to a retail park say park as if going to a certain shop. Like what we all do when we drive and go to the shops. It then gives decision making to them . They can choose to reverse or forward bay . Parking is much easier if you've decided what to do and where you want to be than I want you to reverse into a space along here and your mind goes where
@@DrivingSchoolTV I had to think how I would do it then brake it down and how I would fix it and how I would fix it . Maybe should see if I could give a lesson with no training on video . That would be more interesting than cam I pass a mock test I'm London . The last time I was in London I had the bike and was going to do London to Paris and had to meet people at some hotel near the eye. As I had a bike bag and could not carry the bags I had the brain wave to get a taxi for the bags and I would draft him over a 15 minutes journey going by Google maps. The driver didn't understand I couldn't accelerate as fast as he could and went up to 35 40 amd I was chasing like mad at 1 point i wished for a red light whem I was at 35mph. I'm sure we did the journey in something like 8 minutes instead of the 16 estimated by Google for a car.
@DrivingSchoolTV when I say debate, I mean question it. Basically, I was asked to take the right turn after the traffic lights, 2 lanes both go straight on and right one for turning right. So I get into the right lane behind a van that isn't signalling. Lights turn red, on green we set off and he suddenly signals to take the right for the lights, so I'm stuck behind him until he turns and I got a fault for awareness and planning. Which I disagreed with
Her only weakness is In decision making. The parking and lanes only went wrong because she is going should I I shouldn't I. The lanes when wrong lane which is fine. Simply go I need to make my way to the left lane and look for the safe space or ask to be let accros . Also look at the sat nav. If you are more this is exactly what I'm doing the mistakes won't happen . You know what to do it's the decision part leading to the mistake
I failed my test with 0 minors because I freaked out at a no entry. Some man started shouting at me as I was reversing to fix it, and in my nerves I asked my examinor what I should do :(
Damn sorry to hear that! nerves get to the best of us but at least you know if you didnt even get minors anywhere else you must be at the right standard to drive! book it again you'll be fine next time if you can find a calmer headspace
failed the other week with one minor and a serious for letting a woman out a petrol garage. Examiner was in a shit mood from the beginning. Dont feel this should of been a fail for being in his words to nice
As unfair as it is the result was. Did you have to noticeably alter what you did, so skiw right down which would be unpredictable for cars behind. Or where you at crawling speed and going to have to stop even if they weren't their. The decision is based on how your road is flowing. If it was free flowing then keep going as by stopping you are showing lack of confidence to the examiner and they think you don't k ow what to do. Unless they have entered the road and blocking traffic or you will have to stop keep going it's thier responsibility to join safely. If they mske a mess and you can deal with it . Its good
I just want to say thank you since your videos has helped me improve drastically but I'm stuck... I got a test in 12 days and I can do mspsgl, junctions, roundabouts, planning ahead, doing maneuvers, tomtom etc however my instructor has to make very small interventions like when I go on countryside and I'm close to the kurb so he has to wheel my steering very slightly back to positon etc What do I do since that would technically according to dvsa mean that someone isnt test ready, shall I push the test back or still attempt it, I'm struggling to decide
I was having a similar issues, my test was meant to be in 12 days too but I decided I still didn’t feel comfortable and my instructor kept saying you’d fail, you wouldn’t be wise to take a test so I decided to move it. But if you feel comfortable and I think you can correct those mistakes with a bit more practice!
@@jazzsxngh8926 you’re able to amend the test up to 4 working days before, I would take as many lessons as you can before then to judge how you’re feeling! Wish you the best of luck and I’m sure you’ll pass!!!
You can buy and own a car whatever your licence status is! You just need the correct licence and insurance to be able to drive it. So if you can buy it and find someone else to drive it home for you you're perfectly legal to own a car

@@DrivingSchoolTV Francis I have a question about using your own car for your test. I'm going to be using my car for my test coming up, it's a hybrid and doesn't have a physical dipstick to measure the oil level, I was looking for it forever the other day 🤣I have to check it using the dash interface. If my show me/tell me question is about the oil level, would I just have to say 'in this car you use the interface to check but in most cars you would locate the dipstick and wipe etc etc' then would I show them how I'd actually check it in my car? Thanks!
lol i think it's a great bit. So many people struggle with left and right and it's really frustrating trying to work it out and I know it'll be relatable and help more people 😊
23:50 Wow lucky you. Driving too slow and you were marked as minor. I was not slow, i was driving at reasonable safe speed close to the limit while observing the road conditions but was failed for progress. EXAMINERS can be harsh. Congratulations you were paired with a happy examiners that was good and lenient to you. Congrats on passing. I'll be taking my second attempt on the 24th December 🤞 hope I'm paired with an examiner like yours.
I failed my test just over 2 weeks ago with 14 minors and 3 serous faults my instructor said that many faults and for me to message her to book in for more lessons I did a week later so start again next month
Hey Sharon so sorry to hear you failed your test! Remember it's not a setback it's just another opportunity for learning. It's inconvenient but hopefully you know what you need to work on for next time 😊
@DrivingSchoolTV when you want something badly and im not getting any younger I want to pass so.much and I think I know what put me off is that I forgot to put my seatbelt on then I heard the beeping sound and just stopped the car thought it was a fail within a few minutes but was only a minor I do know where I went wrong thankyou for the advice
Francis, I'm extremely proud to tell you that I had my driving test a couple of days ago - AND I PASSED W/ 0 MINORS!!!!! 🎉
Jheeeeez thats awesome!! Super congrats that's not an easy thing to do you mustve absolutely smashed it!!
Congrats, got my test in a few days hoping for the best!!
@@oliverr.01 how did it go
So delighted for Kitty! I'm a fellow pre-COVID learner who took a break, and then passed this year. Well done Kitty!!

3:41 Right on the round about, 2nd exit. Kitty turned on signal without checking her right mirror.
Sometimes it's hard to tell if someone checks their right mirror, especially with glasses on.
Congratulations Kitty,Happy Safe driving my lovely ❤🎉x

Forgot the left and right nonsense just think where you want to go
@@wrightwoodwork100%
Look at where you want to go and your hands will follow, a big reason for messing up is from focusing on the wheel or overthinking.
Simply use the reference point to do your bay parking. Instead of this many complicated process.

Stop looking at the gears when changing. However, well done. I passed first time with 4 minors, i debated one but accepted it in the end.
Congraaats!! There's no point debating minors it doesn't show anywhere on your licence. Take the certificate and RUN haha

I failed my test just over 2 weeks ago with 14 minors and 3 serous faults my instructor said that many faults and for me to message her to book in for more lessons I did a week later so start again next month
Hey Sharon so sorry to hear you failed your test! Remember it's not a setback it's just another opportunity for learning. It's inconvenient but hopefully you know what you need to work on for next time 😊
@DrivingSchoolTV when you want something badly and im not getting any younger I want to pass so.much and I think I know what put me off is that I forgot to put my seatbelt on then I heard the beeping sound and just stopped the car thought it was a fail within a few minutes but was only a minor I do know where I went wrong thankyou for the advice
