I am back, after a 2 months absence to write on my first review for the month. Most of you would not have missed me, as I am not too popular here. Anyway, back to the subject.
I started my driving lessons approximately a year ago. I did my theory test last June, failed it the first time and passed it the second time. As time went by, I became confident with my driving and I decided to go for the practical test two months later.
I failed the first time and I went for it again. I failed, failed and failed for the 11th time. I have decided to take a break from driving for now but I will be back to pass this time.
Whose fault is it then?
I would blame the school and my driving instructor. Firstly, my instructor never comes on time and at the end of the day he asks me for a cheque which I reluctantly give. Days before the test, we drive the same routes and he always promises me that we will drive a different route for a change but never do. On the test, every thing will seem new to me. Enough said my instructor is only after my money and not me passing the test. And finally, I blame the driving school for changing cars every 4 and increasing their prices annually (For legal reasons, I cannot mention the school in question).
The final word
I know what I have said is not much but I would advice anyone considering driving to opt for better driving schools like the AA and BSM. These schools want you to pass first time and are not after your money whatsoever.

Wrong diddly wrong wrong buddie. I am 24, true enough, you've obviously looked at my date of birth on that profile thingy. However, my stint as a student has long finished, 3 years past actually. So there. Wrong University too. I'm now a mother of a two year old and work for an internet company. So you couldn't be more wrong really.

Good luck with the next test! I'm learning with the AA at the moment, and my instructor is really good. Once he got the lesson times written down wrong and didn't turn up but gave me a free lesson to make up for it! He takes me on all different routes as well. Whilst I agree with earning stuff that you should be able to drive anywhere when you have passed, whilst you're still learning it is important to go on as many different routes and in different conditions as possible to build up experience - your instructor sounds terrible!
