Passing Your Driving Test

Advantages: Rule the road
Disadvantages: Stuck with the green card

...Hello to all reading this. My name is Amjad I am 22 years old & live in West London. I would like to share some tips on how to pass your driving test. Also please read other members views as everyone shares there own advice which may be of use to you. Well lets get started. First of all you need to be 17 & have a provisional license to start, don't delay prices are rising I got mine in 2004 cost £35 now £50+ you can pick one up at your local post office. The theory test is one that I think we kinda get a bit paranoid & nervous. So don't be afraid to give one a shot even if you fail no worries I actually passed on my second attempt & consider my self unlucky. Well to pass , you are required to pass both parts of the test. First the multiple choice questions otherwise known as the theory score required 43 out of 50 & secondly hazard...

Review of Member advice on Passing your Practical Driving Test

  Passing your driving test!

Advantages: Freedom! The end of all those lessons, where to go now..!?
Disadvantages: Very expensive, nerve wracking, and frustrating!

...Passing your test! ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ When I first started taking my driving lessons I actually thought very little about the actual test itself and just carried on as normal. I sort of knew I was good enough to pass and had a feeling I?d pass first time? Yep, this feeling was wrong, but there you go. First things first, to start learning to drive you first need to get a provisional license, which now comes in the form of a little green card with ?DVLA? stamped all over it in clear writing. The theory test ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ The theory test is something you should try to get out of the way as soon as you possibly can, in my opinion, so you can focus on your actual practical driving skills. A lot of the theory will make more sense once you have a bit more sense of the roads, for example roundabouts and junctions, so starting...

  My A-Z of passing your Practical Driving Test

Advantages: Freedom and independence
Disadvantages: Cost, nerves

...As many of you know, I passed my driving test recently so I would like to share my experience to help others to pass theirs. I have decided to give the advice as an A-Z; I hope it helps you or someone you know :-) ~ The Driving test - what to expect on the day ~ So you've been learning to drive for a while now and your instructor says you are ready for your test. But what does this involve? You will need to book a double lesson with your instructor, the first of which will be a lesson; the second will be the test with an examiner. When you arrive at the test centre you will sit in the waiting area until the examiner comes out and calls your name. When they do, you will have to sign a green form to say that the vehicle you will be driving is insured and that you are a permanent resident of the UK. You will then have to...

Test Drive Unlimited

Advantages: Detailed island, addictive and fun races, cars graphically beautiful
Disadvantages: poor voice acting, graphics could be better

...Test Drive Unlimited is currently available for purchase on the Xbox360 Story As with most racing games there isn't really much of a story in the game, you just drive around a beatiful island completing tasks Gameplay The main base for much of your racing is the island of Oahu in Hawai, you can either drive around and enjoy the sites or you can compete in various races and tasks of which can be found from your map, you start out having to buy a car and a house, and then you can go on to win races which earns you money, you can also earn coupouns by driving the residents of the island to various places, coupons then can be exchanged for clothes, i think the clothes are an excelent part of this game, as there are many different combinations you can mess around with, as mentioned before...

Driving test

Advantages: greater opportunity to passing first time
Disadvantages: none

...After shopping around for a comprehensive, easy to use driving test software package, I came across the 3-in-1 Driving Test, and found that it has all the budding learner driver needs to get them on the road. This PC CD-ROM comes with three Cd's, the first being the Theory Test. This is the official DSA Theory test question bank for both cars and motorcycles, and gives you an exact idea of what to expect on your Theory test day, and with over 1,200 questions and answers along with voice over, it is an ideal way to get the practice in. There are six meticulously structured Mock Theory tests that are based on the most commonly asked questions, and an appearance which is structured as you would see it in the test. Then there is the Hazard Perception part, which compared with many previous software packages makes its mark, and is far more...

Could Have Been So Much Better! Test Drive Unlimited Xbox 360

Advantages: Lots of cars, island, Xbox Live challenges, cop chases, cheap
Disadvantages: Boring missions, no storyline and bad sound effects!

...Test Drive Unlimited is a driving game published by Atari for the Xbox 360 console. I first played the game because my Xbox 360 came with the demo and I played it and really enjoyed it. I loved the cop chases and the lovely island but there were some things I did not like as well. The things I liked: I liked the fact the game had lots of licensed cars (over 100) which look great and really realistic. These licensed cars come from brands like Audi, Aston Martin, Cadillac, Dodge, Ferrari, Ford, Jaguar, Lamborghini, Lotus, Maserati, Mc-Laren, Mercedes, Nissan, Volkswagen and many more! The game also includes bikes which is a big plus for me because if you start getting bored driving your car around the island you can pop on a bike and do lots of wheelies! You can also download new cars through Xbox Live which adds even more fun to...

Practical driving test - My experience

Advantages: Being able to drive!
Disadvantages: The F word - Failing

...I read all these posts frantically before taking my test and they really did given me an insight into what it is like, so I thought I would add my own contribution I passed my driving test on Tuesday (woo!!) but it was a long journey starting when I was 17? (If you are just interested in the practical test itself skip down to where it says PRACTICAL TEST INFORMATION) So I turned 17 and got driving lessons for my birthday. I had never really been one to think WOW I really want to drive, it just was something I assumed everyone did. My parents, grandmother, sister and uncle all passed first time (no pressure eh?) using the same driving instructor. So my lessons were booked, unfortunately the driving instructor had retired but he assured my mum that I would be in good hands as I could have his Son. At 17 I had just started going...

Test Drive a bit limited.

Advantages: Large environment, real cars.
Disadvantages: Boring, cardboard graphics, lots of aimless driving.

...Ok, I rented this game as I wasn't sure about it's quality, I know that many people have written glowing reviews about this game but I'm afraid I won't be one of them. I was a fan of the early Test Drive Games on previous computer systems and liked the idea of a free roaming map with mission type races and other challenges but somehow Test Drive Unlimited doesn't have quite the apeal I hoped for. First off the look of the game; I know it was released some time ago but I'm not convinced its actually neg gen quality. The trees, cars and houses look boxy and basic, in fact you could say they look like something out of a computer game which isn't what next generation graphics should be. Take Project Gotham 3 for example, released about the same time as TDU but is in a different league from it in terms of graphics. The premise...

Practical Driving test. What happens!!

Advantages: The FEELING OF PASSING!!! The little pink licence.Being cooler than your mates
Disadvantages: how disheartening it is! Knowing your good enough!! THE PRICEEE

...that actually driving without having to give way at least 4983 times in the space of 5 minutes was a rare thing. I suppose this was an advantage because i was used to meeting traffic straight away. 18 hours later with this white-haired OAP, over the course of a month, he hadn't taught me ANY manovres, didnt let me drive off on my own at the beginning of lessons, never praised the things tht I did learn and was still swiping £20 quid every hour, i thought id best sack the poo. I was thinking i should be half way to bookin my test by now and i wasnt confident in anything i was doing, a simple left turn was turning into a nightmare becaus my instructer never let me do it on my own! My next instructor, big old ron, was amazing compared to the other old fogey. The first time i met him he was 10 minutes early, came whizzing around in his...
