i knew i had failed even b4 i went out on the road, but i wanted to carry on to get the experience. i have got 1 more chance of the test and then thats it cos at £300 for a test is a lot of dosh.

Never mind mate. Im sure you will get it next time. And now you know what to expect on the test.
I agre its alot of money for a retest but just think youve wasted your money on the training if you dont see it through to the end
Sorry to hear you did not get it this time vigfanbke
and I wish you good luck for next time.
Good luck for the retest mate
Good luck with the retest
Hard luck mate - such a lot of money… better luck next time.
I’m waiting till August for my 3rd attempt…
I was thinking about a holiday in Poland/Czech and doing it there for a third of the price. Does anyone know anybody who’s tried this? Now that Po/Czech and UK are all the ‘same country’ there shouldn’t be a problem should there■■? Nice chicks over there, cheap beer
Hard luck matey
Get back on the horse as soon as you can and show it who is the gaffer
Unlucky, vigfanbke. Better luck next time.
As has been said before, you know what to expect, so you can just get in there and give the examiner a good drive.
How did the rest of the test go?
Good Luck next time.
Good luck with the next one . How did the drive go?
■■■■ happens mate good luck with the next one and dont give up took me a few attempts
Unlucky vig, at least you got some test experience which should help for your re-test. Best of luck.
I know every one has said it before but try not to be up set as there is all ways tomorrow and you will pass, relax and as for the shunt manouvere
try to do alittle practise and on the day relax as much as possible and think of all those nice places in those far flung lands that you will soon be visiting as a LORRY DRIVER,
As has been said, sorry to hear about your test and good luck on the retest.

Unfortunately you need residency status, to take a driving test in another country, even within the EU. If you then move on to another EU country, your car licence is valid for up to two years but a vocational licence isn’t. Before you can become a truck driver in your new country you need to pass the local driving test, there is a bit of leeway, but not much and it is down to each country, how much leeway you get. Needless to say, in the UK that is practically zero.
better luck next time
i failed a s well mate but on my gear change of all things , everything else went ok 1 shunt reverse… of all the daft things to do with nerves etc etc i put it in reverse now i didnt want to do that…my next test is the 18th or there abouts

Awwww…'tis a shame
I hope it goes ok for you the next time.
When I failed mine the first time, my hubby didnt speak to me for 3 days!! …Its very easy to forget how nerve wracking it can be.That was 4 years ago now, but I still shudder when I think of my test!

You’ll do it next time mate. GOOD LUCK.
