and i was just wondering if there is anything in particular that i should watch for or things that could fail me

how is it

is it diffucult of what cause i am just stressin and i ns help
 
don't break the godforsaken speed limit by one godforsaken mile/hour. i know, it's ridiculous. also hands at 10 and 2 (like a clock). and don't hit any grandmothers or blind folk.
 
wrong...they dont really care if you can parallel park perfectly as long as you get it done somehow. but make sure you dont hit any curbs. and watch out for pedestrians looking to cross the street, instant fail if you dont stop for them, same with riding up on curbs.
 
thats the easy part. I've been called out twice on left hand turns at a greenlight intersection. just remember, watch for the person opposite of you when you have green. if they have their signal on, go for it. Collisions are a bitch.

pay attention, everything else is easy.
 
I think it depends where you live. I didn't have to parallel park at all in my test (which is good, cause I'm terrible at it).

Besides that, remember to use your turn signal all the time, like when you park and stuff. It shouldn't be too bad, don't worry.
 
my brother failed his first time, he took the test in the city (NYC) and there was a no right on red sign like in the middle of no where, and he didnt see it. turned him right around, had to take it again.

i get my permit at 16, in new york, you now have to wait till your 16 and a half to get your juniors, and at 17 you get your full license
 
know how to drive and then do it. Only times I've heard of people failing was because they made some really stupid mistake so just pay attention to everything and don't be nervous. And where I took it they did care about parallel parking, I had to parallel park behind the cop's car so that shit was kinda intense but I was in a little sedan so it was fine. Also bring the cop a six pack to butter him up a bit, then ask for one during the test.
 
Relax, stay calm throughout the test and you'll be fine.

The only bit of advice I can give is to stay in the right hand lane if you're on a 2 lane highway (2 lanes going each way).

When I took my test I got in some freaked out zone and didn't change lanes, someone passed me on the right and luckily I immediately changed lanes. My instructor said if I didn't then I would have failed.
 
The driver test is based on a point system like such:People= 10 pointsdogs= 0-5 depending on breedcats = 5racoons/ possum/ other vermin = 30mail boxes= 2garbage cans= 2Automatic failure if you hit other cars or caught by the police.
Just try and score around 90-100 points and you're good to go
 
It is seriously the easiest thing ever. I had my test 3 weeks ago.

As long as you don't hit anything when parallel parking in the 50 foot long space then you are golden, it doesn't have to be that good, my guy didn't even check how close I was to the curb.

Just pay attention to the small things like putting on your signals when pulling over.

Don't worry about it, it is super easy.
 
Watch for tricks.

Around here we get bus loads of people from Toronto ( were in a small town 3 hours out of Toronto) to take their test, and the instructor always asks them to go the wrong way down the only 1 way street in town, and they all fail.

Moral : dont go down 1 way streets the wrong way.
 
hahaha i broke the speed limit by 20km/h 80 in a 60 zone..but i didn't see the sign, the guy was cool aobut it though

jsut remember all the road rules, be polite to the guy, don't go in a pimped out car or anything, they'll think you're a hoon and fail you for the smallest thing, find a little hatchback or some smaller car...

oh one of my friends lost his licence about 2 hours after he got it, like 120 in a 60 zone or something stupid...i think he got the record in the whole of our city, if not state
 
head check every turn and back up maneuver so hard and obvious you get whiplash. make sure the instructor sees you head check
 
don't be super cautious.

one of my buddies took it and was being super careful going alittle under the speed limit. looking like 5 times at stop signs and stuff like that and they failed him because they thought he was too afraid of driving to have his license. No Joke. He want back a few days later and just drove and got a 92.

Thats the truth
 
it's easier than it seems, just drive the speed limit or a little under, speeding will get you nailed, just pay close attention and drive as safe as you can, it's pretty hard to fail, at least in vermont it is...
 
Signal at all times, and parking is easy as fuck, if you mess it up just say your going to fix it you have infinite chances. Blind spots and remember to stop on all the white lines at stop signs and what not, never ever ever break the speed limit and make sure to keep over in the right lane if you can
 
Hands at 8 and 4 NOT 10 and 2. It used to be 10 and 2 but It's now 8 and 4 because if the airbags come out your hands will be out of the way I think. And make sure to signal for everything you do, even when you are parking and there is no one around.

And I don't know about anybody else but in my test the most difficult thing I had to do was backup along a curb after I parked like 2 inches from it....
 
9 and 5 i just had drivers ed today and thats what they said...you have the most control that way
 
Go to it drunk.i did and i passed.
ok so i wasnt drunkbut its just that damn easy
if you fail it you are honestly the biggest piece of shit on earth. ive never met anyone in my life who has failed it.
dont worry about it dude, you will pass for sureeven this one jew at my school passed...
 
I talked to my instructor about the computer game "red alert" the whole time. he said I sped, but everyone speeds so whatever.

That is all I remember. It was over six years ago.
 
if you have one ways thats the biggest thing to watch out for, they are tricky instructors will tell you to turn down the wrong one.

i failed my first time...it was on a one way...i was traveling down it and had to make a right turn, i was in the left lane and made the right turn from the left lane, insta-fail...you have to move lanes (ie, right turn from the right lane, left turn from the left lane)...went back a week later and got a 100 percent, its easy...like everyone says its the little things.
 
remebereyout signals at all times, and remember to look around... just be super cautious... like your driving withgod or sumthin... lol
 
Everyones missing the #1 most important part of the test. Put your seatbelt on as soon as you get in. If you go without it immediate fail.
