Driving lessons Grrrrrr!
OK, I have been taking lesson (which seem like forever) to try and pass my test before we head back to Oz.
Why is it that as soon as my instructor tells me that he is going to do a mock test and gets his bit of paper out, I go to pot :mad: Thought he'd say I was ready to take my test today but I made some silly mistakes so yet again, he said we will look at it in a couple of weeks. I'm sooo cross with myself :curse: Mandy |

Re: Driving lessons Grrrrrr!
My OH needs to learn to drive, but he thought it would be easier to learn when we get to Brisbane. What is the general concesus?, should he do a crash course now in London?, or wait? (ps. he already has a motorbike licence but has never wanted to learn to drive a car cos he says there are too many nutters on the road!!!!), so he is road savvy.:huh:

Re: Driving lessons Grrrrrr!
I did take a lesson in Cairns and I also passed my Aussie theory test first time :D .
However, the instructor informed me that I had to be in the country 6 mths before being able to take my test. We unfortunately came home before the six mths. The only other way around that was proving you needed to drive for work, only then could you take your test before 6mths. Thing is, I think it is my gear work that sometimes lets me down. Nice to know we will be driving an automatic in Oz probably :) Mandy |
Re: Driving lessons Grrrrrr!
When i took my test many years ago.I was that nervous that
i put the car in gear before i started the engine.I thought i failed because of it. because of that i just drove around not bothered and i think thats what helped me pass.:blink: |

Try it you never know;) Bruce:) They worked and she passed first time. Good luck with it, I shook so much on my first test I couldn't even open the car door :o I passed the second one cos the testing officer said we were only going round the block till I calmed down he could see how worried I was :) Shirley |
