^ also, you only have to do the hazard spotting thing on your full licence...

Restricted is like a walk in the park!!

OMG they going to test me again?  Fuck this licence thing taken for ever . Yeah only got my learners just got paid today so booking in to do my restricted . But saying that I have done over 16,000 ks since having my learners so Im hoping I will pass. I drive over the bridge twice a day in peak hour . Mum reckons Im ready for it.

Just do what I do and roll restricted for like 8 years haha, I only got my full cos wanted to hire a car in the states for my honeymoon!!

Not trying to scare you or nuffink but...

When my girlfriend sat her restricted in the 205 GTi (which did look pretty haggered but was WoF'd/reg'd) the dude testing her went over it with a fine toothed comb to the point he even checked the tyre pressures!  He reckoned the pressures were too low so she couldn't sit the test!  Failed without even starting the engine...

Now personally I think that guy was simply being a complete cock cos he didn't want to go out on a driving test at 8am, would rather be back inside finishing his coffee, so you'd be pretty unlucky to have a repeat of that incident.  She rebooked, went back a week later and got a totally different person who was nice and she passed with no problems at all.

Moral of the story: If your car looks dodgy make sure it's all up to snuff (horn, indicators etc) and make sure you've got air in the tyres so if you get a fuck-nut for a tester they at least can't get you on that technicality!

like I said not trying to freak you out though   Generally if you can drive you should be fine - just look at some of the terrible drivers out there who got their licenses! 

[Reviled]

Sh*t, I actually don't think they are allowed to do that eh? Did she contact AA and complain?? Total BS if you ask me... There really are some absolute cnuts who do the tests eh... I had some fat bird and was chatting her up and being all nice to her   

When I went for my full, checked my brake light at home, drove 2 mins down the road to the test, dude checked my brake light and one had blown   

Needless to say I had a pack of like 4 spare bulbs in the glove box next time I went for my test

Yeah tbh the guy was just looking for a reason to not have to go out I think.  Jin actually said later she was glad cos with an attitude like that he probably would have failed her anyway on principle...

She did complain but they said something about safety being the priority and if the person testing thought there was a safety issue (despite having a WoF less than a month old) then they could call off the test.

lols

I had risky for 5 years only sat my full cos I wanted to be able to drive in uk.
Just relax don't get too worked up about your test, check your car over before hand and just roll down there and play it
cool. I pissed myself both times cammmy's mate crashed my cars, was epically funny and I'm pretty
laxed so I wasn't at all bothered in fact I think I encouraged him the first time haha told him to cut loose and two corners later he'd
scratched my wing mirror on a lamp post after mounting curb, funny as fuck.

Also when I said beard it was actually a goatee when I did my test
but I shaved down the middle and used to gel it (looked like two horns on my chin)
but on my license photo its un gelled as was after work so it just looks like two tufts.
I think I did have it gelled in my passport photo though haha.
I have a bit of of beard now though, generally kids find it easier to approach me outside school
when I have a beard as they get lost in epic beardedness and don't notice that
I have no pants on

Wow that dude was just Anal . Ok will give the car a good wash , Not to much as it washes the black paint ,  check air pressure , Check to see if the guy has a carrot stuck up his a$$ . lol. I better be prepared then not so I thank you for the heads up! . I watch some guy test a car today and he just checked indicators and brakes lights and horn . That was it!  I'm booked the same time as that guy passed one  girl so that good.
