Try using some of those periods in the question and not just in the title.

This is going to be different in every state so you will have to let us know what state you live in before anyone will be able to give you an accurate answer.

225 seconds is less than 4 minutes for 25 questions; that sounds like someone is trying to scare you with an urban myth. I doubt they'd give you too much time (like several hours!), but I don't think it's as bad as you've heard.

I couldn't find any details on the test on the ND DMV site, but you could call a branch and ask.

Yes it's true

no big deal- took me 25 secolnds

Well you can always determine the driving part on how you drive. If you feel you are a good driver you will do good.

look forget parallel parking if you do good on everything else it dont matter if you mess that up

I haven't taken my test yet but my sister said just be really polite to the people giving the test but don't be really annoying or they will fail you. They could fail you for the smallest things so you should make sure to give a good impression cuz thts a big part of what's based on. Also, if you don't pass don't stress cuz you could just take it again. My dad took it 6 times!! lol

wow i just got my license today its fuckin awsome. ummmmm brake way before stop signs, and on your parallel park go slow and keep looking behind you. good luck!

uh wrong section

Questions about the signs, if I remember right, is that there is pictures of signs, and you have to name them from the shape of the sign. Like the triangle is the yield sign, and the 8 sided one is the stop sign. The other questions are multiple choice.

its not hard
you should do perfectly fine

Just relax and use good observation. There are a lot of stories out there and believe me being a driver's examiner I have heard them all! Listen closely and repeat it back to me if that helps.
I had a 16 year old on Friday who actually had an L on her left hand and an R on her right. She passed… barely. But we don't put barely passed on your card. (haha)

Yes

Yes.

i took drivers ed in high school and took the vision test in the class. i failed it, told them i got contacts and i didnt have to re-take it at the dmv

Vision requirements vary from state to state.

In Alabama, a vision test is given to all driver's license applicants. If you need corrective lenses to pass the test, this will be noted on your license. (It will be a restriction on your license).

I am quite sure this is common in many other states, too.

Eat bananas before as they help you think,and stop you feeling sick
Have it in your head that it's only money if you fail,
I didn't expect to pass, my knees were knocking, a kid nearly ran out on me in town, I was a wreck and recovering from witnessing a hit and run,
But I did it, 1st time with only 5 minors.
You can do it,
Think it's only money

I used to practice parking in a field with my old man no I race cars !

just take your time
also, always, always ease on the breaks

A monkey can pass a driving test, sorry. I'm not trying to make fun, but a driving test is very easy. And there's no excuse for not acing it.

You need a little practice is all. Get someone to teach you, go out in the open and practice some things.

The testers just ask you to do things you will encounter while driving. Even if there is no need to change lanes, they are testing you on how you perform the task.

Parallel parking? practice makes perfect.

You may also find that you do much better in a particular car, some are definitely easier to drive than others.

This small comfort but I think, judging from the way you formed your statement, you have work to do.
Read the manual over and over again. Relax.
Driving is all good judgment cause and effect. You have to develop anticipation. This is critical to avoiding accidents. Stay calm in all situations. I used to drive a truck and the most mistakes are made because of over-reaction.
Get the car and go to an empty parking lot. Practice……..

KEEP PRACTICING AND RELAX.

Nope…………..

No, just the turn indicator…If the space is to the right, signal right and to the left, signal left.

All the best.

Where I live you signal, shoulder check and make your three point turn. No emergency flashers are necessary.

Read the book carefully. Get a friend to ask you questions out of the drivers book. This helped me a lot.

Learn to parallel park. Always use your blinkers. Always come to a complete stop at stop signs. Keep both hands on the steering while. And don't forget to wear your SEATBELT!

go online to the dmv's website and take practice quizzes. on my test the questions were exactly the same

just read through it, most of the test is common sense. you might want to study the road signs and warning signs…

study real real hard……there might be practice tests on your local dmv website. also get a good night's rest the night before, and make sure to eat breakfast. you will concentrate better not on a full stomach, but if u have something healthy in your tummy. good luck and let me know how u do!

Before the test. make the passenger side mirror alittle lower so you can see the curb. but not to much where you can't see behind you.. also practice in a parking lot and use the yellow lines as the curb. hope this helps.

My wife's a DL Examiner. For the most part, it depends on your immigration status. If you applied as a citizen, u need your passport, as alien, you green card.

If it's road test, u need to practice your K-turn (or 3 pint turn), your backing up (using the right posture: your right hand behind the the front seat, you need to look back through the rear windshield and drive slowly), stop completely at stop signs (no rolling stop) , don't hit the cones (when backing out or when parking between the cones).

Other than that, be very calm and do excatly what the Exerminer tells you. No fret, No stress, no distress. Be kool, kalm and kollected.

There's nothing to it, you'll pass it.

Goodluck.

Uncontrolled: no traffic light working. Basically treat that intersection as a stop and go.

I didn't fail mine and I'm an awful driver … But I only made one mistake and that was with the turn signal. I wasn't driving my car and couldn't figure out where the turn signal was.

I have to say though I kinda wore a tiny skirt and very low cut top with a push up bra, and a male cop gave me the test .. Which I knew ahead of the time.

Just don't worry, really. If you fail it you can take it again, it's no big deal. Pretty much everyone I knew failed it so I accepted that and went to the driving test thinking I was going to fail it either way so I was not nervous. The more nervous you are the more likely you are to fail so just calm down and you'll be fine. It's not like your life will end if you fail it … You can come back the next week and retake it after practicing what you messed up on.

The more you study the handbook, the more you will remember at test time. As a matter of fact, some of their questions will be so ridiculous to you, you'll have to roll your eyes at them. I'm not kidding. I studied everyday, for 2 weeks, and got 100 % on the test. I even shocked myself. The hardest part is the distances and such….Just relate them to other things…. like 15 feet could be 15 apples, etc…. Hey, good luck to you!

Each State has a slightly different test, most States are multi choice. Read the handbook and it will not be hard. You may bring a Friend to the DMV while you take the test, but they can not be in the testing area with you.

For the Road test, you cannot have anyone with you except the tester. Again the friend can wait in the DMV waiting room.

Most states have the Driver Handbook online, just google it. You will see many small differences in State laws so do not take advice from your parents/friends/ relatives who passed the test from another State.

good luck

I don't think you can take it anywhere but the DMV and have it be valid for your license. I'm sure that a driving school could give you a sample test, but you will still have to pass the official one. You could try another branch of the DMV, find one in a less populated area. I know that the one in Lake Oswego is never very crowded.

I assume you mean a U turn
a Y turn is a new one on me and I was a driving instructor in the UK for 12 years

I have never heard of a learner being asked to do a U turn

But they may be asked to do a turn in the road

Ask your instructor
If you don't have a DOT.ADI approved driving instructor don't be surprised if you fail continuously

make a v

Depends on the turn. Often you do hand over hand or just keep them in the same position.
Most teachers don't look at your hands, they watch the turn. So focus more on your driving!

your hands should be at 10 and 2 o' clock on the steering wheel

Your hands should be either in the 9 O'clock and 3 O'clock position or the 10 O'clock and 2 O'clock position. These positions are known to be the safest hand positions while driving. Hand-over-hand is a two-handed technique where you cross your arms while turning the wheel.

Stop at Yellow Lights. When you think you're done parking, pull the parking brake, that means you're really done. And try not to be too nervous lol.

depends on the state you are in. mine was 24 hours.

no tickets, then yes. your license test should be taken.

take a look at this site has video.

Good luck, faith

In Maryland, each motor vehicle testing facility has a road course on the property. It is like a litlle drive to a church, but is not public driving. There is a circle, a left and right turn, a place to paralell park, a 3-point turn area, a straight, some curves, and 4 way stops.

Wisconsin, like MN, we drive in traffic, the tester will have you do "Y," or 3 point, turn, back up for 50 in a straight line, and then test the basic "rules of the road." On my test i got 2 F-ing points of because the stall he told me to park in, back at the DMV by the way, after the test had a car on either side of it and they were both on top of the yellow divider lines and i had to squeeze into the stall. It made me angry, but yea we have to identify all the gauges and shit to.

I thought that same way as you, but I don't know if you are doing drivers ed or not, when I did it they basically coached me through. Im not sure if you would fail for something like that. You would lose points but idk about failure. You can do it though it isn't that hard. The first time I had to do it by myself I kicked its ass. Although, it was in front of a fire hydrant…

You'll lose a few points on parallel parking … but provided you don't make any other mistakes – you SHOULD pass. (depending on your state)

my highschool never taught us parallel parking, so we were never tested on it. to this day (im 25) i still cannot parallel park!

You won't fail because of one issue, but just go find an empty parking lot and put car in reverse and back up in circles this will increase your eye hand coordination.Then try to do it ( parallel park)you'll be totally surprised.You can do anything you decide to do

As long as you remain calm and relax you should do fine. One of the first things they check for is if you are wearing your seat belt and usually just have you do the basics ( merging into lanes, reverse, how you handle the car). Not often do they check for parral parking. Hope you do well on your test!

It's really easy. I don't understand why people have trouble with parallel parking, it's the easiest part of the test for me. You should get 3 chances to do parallel parking. (and parallel parking is required on every driving test in the US).

I think the hardest part is being perfect. If the speed limit is 25 mph, go 25 mph EXACTLY. I failed my first test because I was going 27 mph. Call that perfection!

Another tip: Exaggerate your actions. While looking both ways, turn your head so that the examiner can really tell that you are looking.

Also, know your basic controls. For me, they asked: turn signals, windshield wipers, low beams, high beams, 4-way flashers, and (opening/closing) windows.

Good luck!

The questions will involve rules of the road and other various things. Study this…

http://www.mass.gov/rmv/dmanual/index.htm

just drive as often as possible to get some practice in with a good experienced driver.

if you're going for your learner's just study the book for a few hours.

Here is a stupid mistake i made when i took mine.
I stopped at the traffic light when it was red of course., But i stopped on the line. Well that didnt cut it with him, u must stop BEHIND the white line not ON the white line. Well it was stupid but while i am driving i still do it sometimes and i see lots of others so keep that in mind!

I was absolutely terrified of my drivers test.. i hated driving.. i still do..

But it's not that hard.. just pay attention.. try to have the radio OFF if possible..

during my road test i had to answer a few questions.. (keep in mind these are michigan's questions)

I only remember one… and that was.. "if you are going to hit something.. and can NOT avoid it.. what do you do?"

I read about this question in my book before i took the test.. the answer seemed.. so obsurd.. but it was "sideswipe it"

so i told my instructer guy "The book said sideswipe it" Because personally thats not what i would do XD.. and hes like "the book was right!"

So read you book, stay calm and focused.. you'll do good.

Most people have problems with parrallel parking..
Personally.. i have no idea how to do it, and i did it perfectly. XD

During any maneuver if you touch the curb it is scored as a scrape. However that alone would not cause you to fail a test. What else happened? Maybe I could give you some advice.

You could try placing two objects far apart and try parking in between them. It's just like double parking between two cars. My dad this for me. He used buckets lol. That way, If you hit the object, you won't get in trouble for hiting someone's car.

put two plastic or rubbermaid garbage cans about a cars length apart in a non busy area, put a rake or a broom in each one to make it easier to see. Then practice parallel parking. It won't matter if you hit a rubbermaid garbage can… they bounce back.

you've just got to find an area downtown or something to practice over and over again at.
In some states, they don't even have you do parallel parking anymore for the test. I just took my test a few weeks ago and they didn't have me do it.

get 2 cone set them a car link and a half, empty parking lot is a good place

Practice with nothing and then get some cones to mark your obstacles.

Look before you make a turn. Its that simple. Practice looking both ways. I like to do this. I look to my left, my right and than my left before I make a turn.

Just go for a practice drive before you go and take your test again. Think about all the things that the person tells you to do. If you feel it is necessary, go over the book again if you have to. Try not to be so nervous as well. The more you think about how you failed the other test the more likely you are to fail it once again. Try to pretend that you are driving with a friend that is telling you where to go, ect. Well, good luck and I hope you pass your test

I sucked at parallel parking and failed due to that. I ended up paying for a private parking lesson with the driver's ed instructor. That really paid off in the end and I was able to pass no problem.

instead of trying again
try to look in the local paper for drivers ed classes.
i got my permit a while ago.
and i took a drivers ed class over the summer in Florida and if you complete the course you dont have to take the test at the DMV to get your "licence"
just a thought,
Ben

Just practice a lot with your parents. Look at the sheet the examiner gave you and see what you got docked points for, and ask your parents to point out when you do those things.

Wow! Just like me…I'm 16 and have failed my drivers test TWICE! I'm going to take it again tomorrow morning and I hope I pass. I'm nervous, but I try not to think about it, and I just try to remember what I learned in Drivers Ed, and also try to relax. Take deep breaths and keep on practicing i'm going to practice more today too! Good luck on your test!

Get your instructor to put you through a mock test so you are used to the procedure.

Practise, practise practise. You really need to develop a sense of how close things are to you, backwards or forwards. And you need to be consistent in the way you approach backing up. Don't change your style every time your reverse.

Everyone is nervous for their first driver's test.

When I sat my test (which is a LONG time ago) my tutor got me to put a mark on the rear window (sticky tape) which was directly in line with the kerb as I looked around. When you are reversing, as long as you keep the mark in line with the kerb, you'll stay on line.

As for jitters….try chewing some gum!

Well the jitters are going to be there. It is part of taking your test.

But when backing up…put your left hand on the back of the passengers seat and turn your body around to look out the rear window. Keep your car wheel straight! And you will do fine.

Good luck!

oh i was the same in the first but after that you will be very good driver
Don't be afraid and tell your self that you that control the car not vise verse
are you Russian??

Just make sure you stop when you hear something crunch.

The biggest thing that you need to keep in mind when backing up is not to turn your wheel too early. Here is a recent article with some driving test tips including instructions on backing up:

Killing your Driver Examiner (And 5 Other Mistakes to Avoid on Your Road Test)
by: Jeff Kelly

If you're one of the millions of people who will take their driving test in the United States this year, chances are it's a very big deal to you. For teens, passing the driving test marks a right of passage and is one of the biggest accomplishments in a young person's life. For others, passing the road test can mean the freedom to take better care of their family or to pursue a more lucrative job.

Unfortunately, about half of those taking their test for the first time will fail. And it happens for a variety of reasons. As a former DMV examiner, I have seen just about everything that can happen on a road test. I've been in a car that has pulled in front of an oncoming semi, I've been rear-ended after stopping for no apparent reason and I've had someone hit the gas instead of the brake and plough right into the DMV building (much to the delight of my fellow examiners). I've even seen other examiners end up in the hospital. If you have a flair for the dramatic and a car that you're looking to get rid of, there are plenty of heart-stopping ways to fail your drivers test. Here are five mistakes that may seem harmless but can lead to dangerous situations.

1. Stopping in a yield.

Looking for an excellent way to get hit from behind and fail your drivers exam? Look no further. Stopping unnecessarily in a yield is a great way to write off that old clunker that mom lent you for the road test. Even if you don't get hit from behind, simply forcing the person behind you to slow or stop unnecessarily will probably get you a failure. The correct procedure? As you enter a yield to make right hand turn, look at the traffic in front of you. If it is slowing or coming to a stop, do the same. If it is not stopping or slowing down, take a look to your left to ensure that it is safe for you to go. If there is no traffic coming and it is clear in front of you, keep it moving!! On the other hand, if it isn't safe to proceed, then slow down or stop. The point is that you should keep moving if it is safe to do so. Otherwise, you may find your trunk in your back seat.

2. Signalling too soon.

Where there are two upcoming streets on the right side of your vehicle and the driver examiner tells you to make a right hand turn at the second one, ensure that you do not start signalling until you have passed or are very close to passing the first street. The reason for this? If you signal too soon, traffic waiting at the first street may see you approaching with your signal on, assume that you are turning right away and pull out in front of you. Anyone for a juicy t-bone? Ouch.

3. Signalling too late. Signalling too late is also a problem. When making a turn, make sure that you signal before you start braking. This warns the car behind you that you will be slowing down and gives them extra time to prepare for it. Even if you don't cause an accident, signalling too late will cost you points on your test.

4. Hesitating.

Often, new drivers are either so nervous or so determined to show the examiner how careful they are that they hesitate to go when it is safe to do so. Sometimes they even wait for awhile, realize that they should have gone earlier and then pull out in front of oncoming traffic at the last second (kind of like a squirrel crossing the street). It's one thing to make sure that it is safe before proceeding. It's another thing to sit there so long that your car begins to rust. Be careful but be confident. Hesitating is not only a nuisance to other drivers but can result in a dangerous situation.

5. Backing up improperly.

This one happens A LOT, usually right at the start of the road test. If you are parked in a stall at the beginning of your test and need to back up, make sure that you are aware of the vehicles parked on either side of your car. Remember that if you are looking behind you and start turning the steering wheel as soon as you begin to back up, the front end of your car will swing out sideways and hit the parked car next to you. I can't tell you how many times I had to grab the wheel out of someone's hand to prevent this from happening. It's an automatic failure so be careful. Make sure that you have backed up straight far enough so that when you turn the wheel, the front of your car will clear the car parked next to you.

Remember these five driving tips and keep both you and your examiner on the road and out of the hospital. Good luck and good driving!

14 inches is probably too much…i think it should be a lot closer. just don't get really nervous or you'll screw things up that you usually wouldn't. make sure to stop BEFORE the stop sign and say your name before you start up again. make sure that you NEVER turn onto a one-way street, always look before you turn into a street, EVEN if your tester says to turn! Just relax, you'll do fine!

Hey!
You should only be 8-10 inches away from the curb. If it is more, then yes, you will pass the yellow line.
Good luck on the test!
Also, remember to grip the steering wheel lightly, but firm enough so that you still have control over it. And grip with your thumps UP. Don't wrap your thumbs around the wheel because of airbag release.
-Look both ways at the intersection when crossing it, (my instructor used to yell at me everytime i'd forget)
-and remember to always apply the brakes a little early so you come to a smooth stop.

& the rest is cake!
Again, good luck and i hope i helped! =]

it's almost all common sense….and if you can't pass it then I personally dont' want to be driving with you

For my test, I needed to know the controls in my car: headlights, windshield wipers, defroster, emergency light, etc.

Then, I had to practice driving and stopping, switching lanes in traffic, parking on the side of the curb, backing up in a straight line, turning right against the light, turning without stopping. During the whole time, I needed to periodically check my rear view and side mirrors.

I don't specifically know what the DL form is, however, I grew up in Ohio and had to take driving classes if I wanted my license before I turned 18. I need to drive with an instructor for a specific number of hours and have classroom time as well. Check out this website for more details
http://www.dmv.org/pa-pennsylvania/first-time-drivers.php

Here are a couple links to forms that you may need:

http://www.dot10.state.pa.us/pdotforms/dl_forms/dl-180.pdf

http://www.dot10.state.pa.us/pdotforms/dl_forms/dl-180c.pdf

http://www.dot10.state.pa.us/pdotforms/dl_forms/dl-59.pdf

Here is additional informaiton regarding applying for a Junior License:

When you're ready, make an appointment for a road test. You can do this online or call (800) 423-5542.

When you arrive for your test, be sure to bring:

Your learner's permit.
A completed Parent or Guardian Certification Form. This certifies that you completed 50 hours of on-road driving. It must be signed by your parents or guardians.

http://www.dot10.state.pa.us/pdotforms/dl_forms/dl-180c.pdf

The registration for the car you're testing in.
Proof of car insurance.
The license of the person who accompanies you to the test.
If you pass, you will be handed a camera card and directed to a Photo License Center. After getting your picture snapped, you will be handed a junior driver's license, valid for four years.

Now that You have Junior Driver's License

With a junior license you will be allowed to drive alone and choose your own music?provided it's between 5 a.m. and 11 p.m. If you drive after 11 p.m., you must be accompanied by a licensed parent or guardian who is at least 21 years old, or a licensed spouse who is 18 or older.

The lone loophole is if you need to drive during this time for work. In this case, you must carry a notarized affidavit from your boss confirming your employment.

Step 4: Driver Training and Regular License

You can apply for a regular license at 17 1/2 years old provided you've had your junior license for one year, have a spotless driving record, have the consent of your parents or guardians, and have successfully passed a PennDOT-approved driver education program.

If not, you must hold off on your official license until you reach 18. Your junior license will then automatically upgrade to regular driver's license status, sparing you the hassle of renewing. If you want a new card, however, you can apply for a regular driver's license by submitting an Application for Change from a Junior Driver's License to a Regular Noncommercial License and paying a $10 replacement fee.
Testing Requirements

Written (Knowledge) Test

This exam consists of 18 multiple-choice questions. You need to answer 15 correctly to pass. All of the questions are based on information contained in the Pennsylvania Driver's Manual.

Road (Skills) Test

Your on-road driving test will last about 10 minutes. Your examiner will scrutinize your ability to flow with real traffic while obeying signs and not posing a danger to other drivers. There's a good chance you'll be asked to parallel park?the biggest cause of test failure?so make sure you practice before the exam.

i rode a bike
sang a three blind mice

and

built a lego phaser rifle

for the driving portion of the exam you must competently do several things proper lane usage (left or turning lane) turn indiacator usage. 3 point turn. parralel parking. first adjust your mirrors, make sure you and passenger are buckled in state the question back to examiner to make sure you understand. say out loud what you are doing, dont worry, you can take it again neice had to take exam 4 times.

No. They will assume you know it seeing that you passed the computerized/written part. If you ask them they will know you don't know and will send you back. Go to the DMV and get a booklet and look for the speed limits in different areas.

Better to ask questions than fail for speeding….but don't ask unless you absolutely dint see any signs or anything telling the speed

study driving. study signals test. pass. get license. drive to vegas. have fun

try not to get nervous during the actual drives and stay alert keep your head moving and looking for things, study the book well and pay attention in class and you will do just fine.

Well in CA you just walk in they practicly give you your drivers license hahaha j/k. I recently took my test about 5 months ago it was kinda wet so i just kept it 5 under the speed limit and I passed with no errors. Stop at the stop signs. Dont worry about what the person in the passanger seat is writing they only write to distract you shut off the radio keep both hands on the wheel and know your hand signals for turning. Depending on what state you live in its different in CA it consists of the Permit test "book smarts" then the Driving portion the driving portion is the behind the wheel actions. If they ask you where your hazards are DO NOT reach through the steering wheel reach around. Know where all the pretest things are hazzards, defrosters, and others. Dont be nervous your just going on a drive with your g/ma who is afraid of going to fast keep it at least 1mph under the speed limit and in a school zone slow under 25, it earns points with the instructor they think you care. Most of all after you've got your licence make a few dounuts in the DMV parking lot no im just kidding save that for later.

Just calm down. Let me tell you something, nerves play a critical factor in driving as it is an action of pure hand eye coordination. If your nervous, you'll fail, but if not, you'll do perfect. Its as simple as that.

Also, no written test, just road.

no written test but you have to relax.try going over the course before you take test parking is all in using the mirrors right so make sure your side view and rear view mirrors are set right for you.
have the side view set to see the right side of car and ground

Practice, practice, practice. Go out and practice everything you can think of. If you practice, it will become second nature. You will parallel park like a pro.

know distances and times, like tailgating is a 2 second space. Also know how to parallel park. I hear it is the hardest part of the road test. good luck!! Only 2 years and then I get to take it!!

Everyone's nervous at first. You should be alright. Just remember, not to drive on the sidewalk. Good luck.

You need to find a way to relax and BREATHE. Also, sucking on a piece of candy when you study for anything, and then sucking on the same type of candy when you're taking the test, really helps. The flavors and smells take you back to when you were studying.

Don't worry about failing. Many people fail the first time they take the test. If you do, just study better-often, but not really longer. Just take 'small doses'. You can do it!

Worrying about if you will be nervous will stir you into a frenzy, so stop worrying! Just breathe and believe!

Good luck!

What kind of car did u got for XMAS

points

Usually you just get points taken away. Depends on what state you live in. And don't feel bad, a lot of us can't parallel park.

You won't fail the test just for that. Take your time and use your rear and side mirrors and turn the wheel gradually.

You'll be fine…Like you said, you've done it well in the past! Good Luck!

You didn't say what State you are in. In California, parallel parking is no longer part of the drivers test. It used to be, but no longer. I guess it's felt that most people park diagonally these days. Good luck on your test. Don't forget to make a complete stop at stop signs!

give it up and ride the bus

just study the general manual about driving, available at the dmv. Keep calm and you'll do fine. good luck.

Take a deeeeep breath, focus and concentrate, dont be nervous, you can do it and will have alotta good driving years ahead of you!! Just remember in your "new found freedom" of having a license…Wear your seat belt and DONT Drink/Drug While Driving!!! Now, go ace the test!!! Varoooom!!!

For the written test make sure you read that book, several times. It is best to take a high school Driver-Ed class to supplement your studies.
Find someone who knows the material to ask you verbal questions over the book, or go on line and find questions.
Don't think TOO hard about questions. Studies have showed the first impulse answer is correct 80% of the time.

For the actual Driving Exam:
Some tips:
Stay BELOW the speed limit
If you have anything other than 20/20 vision wear glasses if you have em so you can easily get a good read on far away signs
Have your parents tell you random controls to activate/deactivate in the car you are testing with. Go through them all at least 3 times so you don't miss any easy points.
If possible set up cones in a parking lot to simulate tight turns and wide turns, both left and right to get used to the maneuvering capabilities of the car.
If the Highway Patrol officer starts muttering a few things inaudibly disregard it as it will make you more nervous if you don't.
Take a drive through the possible routes w/ your parents (you should know if you've been through 2 times) so you know the locations of all the stop signs and speed limits.
And most of all, stay calm. Not doing so will only spell failure for you.

think of the instructor as your best bud
it helped me after the 7th time

continue to study b/c if you don't pass, you don't drive.
Mom of B & D

keep both hands on the wheel

ur fine

Dont worry….. i failed mine on the first try…its not that big a deal trust…and everybody in my school new about it…everybody was really nice and supportive of me…..Youll be fine!!!!!!!! Good Luck!!!!!

Other things they like to look at is parallel parking. Don't forget to check your side and rear-view mirrors, hands at 10&2 position and hand over hand when turning. If you come to an intersection that has a hedge on the corner….remember to stop at the stop sign, then AGAIN at the edge of the hedge to see if it's clear to proceed.
PS- If you fail the first test, you won't exploid. Your arms will just fall off. lol

Here are some important tips:

*GO the EXACT OR UNDER the speed limit.
*Turn your blinker on EVERY time
*make sure you look over your shoulder before you make any turns. (to watch for pedestrians or bikers).
Good Luck.

keep both hands on the wheel and whatever you do…show them that you ALWAYS look in the mirrors..

i want to leave a rude answer but you ruined the fun
i hope a police officer does get you

Go the speed limit, and always make sure you're doing that 4 step process…I forgot what it's called. You look in the rear view mirror, then side mirrors…make sure the person sees you moving your head [but not too much], when your switching lanes.

Just stay calm. They will be writing down a lot of stuff while you are testing. That does not mean that they are making negative comments they just have to record all events. Remember turn signals at all times and stop behind the crosswalks. Know where all the buttons in your car are and keep checking your mirrors. You will do fine. Good Luck!

RELAX, what's the worst thing that can happen? you flunk and have to retake it…big deal…Just relax and do your best

Keep both hands on the wheel.Be sure to not go over the speed limit, remember to stop behind the crosswalk at traffic lights, always check your blind spot…when the instructor says to take the next "possible" right, make sure the next road is not a oneway and proceed to the next one…when parallel parking, pull along side the car so your drivers doors are even, remember to put your car in park when you are done…remember to "cover the brake" when driving through uncontrolled intersections.

DON"T HIT THE CURB WHEN PARKING. or go over it. you will fail for sure. when pulling out always look behind you to see if someone is coming. Buckle up and both hands on the wheel.

get very very drunk.

Don't worry about it, most driving testers really aren't very strict. They pass almost anyone.

I am an experienced driver but I failed the first test because I stopped totally at a stop sign which was before a junction so I had to stop again at the junction. There was no line at the stop sign…….
Go and see first where they do the test and drive around first before the test date.

Learn some deep breathing exercises. Do not breathe shallow. Draw in and push your belly out. This will cause your diaphragm to expand. Try it. You can feel the stress level drop. If that doesn't help just remember you can always take it again if you goof up, the tester is human just like you, and in the big picture this really doesn't matter.

if you get like 2 tries, the first time have some fun and just gun it the whole way, then the second, take it seriously.

i passed mine.

What is the question? Is there anything specific about driving tests that you want to know?

what about them

Just a lot of practice in an empty parking lot. Good luck to you.

I drive a big car myself and I can't really tell you what the secret is, I just do it. I took my test in my big car and did fine, just don't sweat it. Although, maybe you should find a different car to use, it doesn't have to be yours you know, you could borrow a friends if they let you.

All I can say is slow down – keep looking and checking your corners.

If you can find a similar vehicle to practise in (get a friend to take you to a big car park and put out some cones).

Remember you can always take the test again – so no pressure … relax – look at the idiots you know who have a licence – you can do it !!

lots of practice in a empty lot or sometimes schools or places will set up little courses …those help….good luck

get another car for the test, something small, much easier
