i'm having a real nightmare with getting my QLD licence. I'm one of these people who needs silence to concentrate and i've taken the test 3 times now - each time just failing by one or two. I'm so pissed off with the QLD transport offices being like Picadilly circus and there being no facilities for you to go some where quiet to take the test that i'm not sure i can actually be bothered to try again.

) but Rosalie wasn't noisy at all so he passed 2nd time. Bit of a journey for you, though.

it is straight forward - although there a a few "banana skins" thrown in to trip you up. I got a classic "what do you do when you see a amber light" - i answered prepare to stop............. WRONG....
Its not an abmer Traffic light its an amber light like on an RACQ vehicle they are talking about - correct answer is slown down and prepare to give way if necessary .........
its so crazy but my lack of being able to concentrate because its always so flaming noisy trips me up on STUPID questions like that
