Rummy Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Congratulations to you! I passed mine in December and haven't driven since, why? Cos insurance, cars and fuel are too damn expensive. Still, an awesome feeling knowing you're officially capable of driving a car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Congrats! I passed in June (First time, 3 minors) It's a good feeling I think mine only lasted bout 30 mins if that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conzer16 Posted October 15, 2008 Author Share Posted October 15, 2008 Congratulations First time? Amount of minors? Yup first time with 4 Grade 1's (minors)! Well happy! Congrats! I've got mine tomorrow morning. I'm absolutely bricking it. I was like that yesterday, just get out in the car tonight and drive around for a bit. That's what I did last night. Drove the test route and just practiced some of the manoeuvers. You'll be fine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll be fine I've got an hour driving lesson before my test to get into the swing of things. I know I can pass it, but I feel like I'll make a stupid mistake and fail the whole thing. Arghh! Just want to get it done and dusted!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zell Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 Hope you pass this time Chuck, I know how depressing failing a driving test multiple times is. Just try not to think of it as a test and drive as naturally as possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daft Posted October 15, 2008 Share Posted October 15, 2008 I failed my first test, didn't drive until my second, which was a month later, and then passed with one minor. The second test I did really calmly. Glad it's over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShavenWolf Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 Honestly, as conzer said, it's such a good feeling! I'm really glad I checked out the test routes online first, they make you realise how easy they actually are! As soon as he said "Ok, I'm happy to tell you.." my hands were clasped to my face in relief. So damn relieved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arab_freak Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 I'm glad I have "high-ups" in my family. My uncle got me my license without having me take the exams. :] Not like the ACTUAL test is difficult. You just drive around an S-shape, then drive back through half of it in reverse.

ShavenWolf Posted October 16, 2008 Share Posted October 16, 2008 But where's the satisfaction in that, eh? Also, it means that the Egyptian equivalent of the DSA must be pretty corrupt if they allow that to happen, tbh... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
