Driving tests

How old were you when you passed? Also did you pass 1st time or after a few more attempts, i'll get the ball rolling...

I was 19 and passed 3rd time


GO!!

i was 18, passed 2nd time

17 passed second time with 1 minor, instructor never watched me drive in the second test, she was a legend, spent the whole time talking to me about football!

18 - 1st time. The examiner got out I drove the car up the road to meet my instructor and stalled 3 times!

I passed my motorbike test 1st time aged 17

Then car test 1st time aged 18 had to pass it for work
Dread to think how much lessons are now

I dont think i'd be able to pass first time if i had to take a test again.

Oh yes i had to take the theory test aswell, as that had just come in and passed that first time!

They never had cars when you were 19!!!

I passed at the grand old age of 25. 3rd time. Passed the theory test 2nd time round

Yes Philip, Chitty chitty bang bang had just been put on the road!! But only just mind you!

I passed first time two months after my 17th birthday.

C*cked up my first test within the first couple of minutes on a test route I didn't even know existed. I knew I would fail, so I relaxed and the rest of it went really well. I came to the conclusion that the test was a piece of ****.

Got my next test 6 weeks later and was really confident. Did fine on the driving and then struggled to think of answers for the Highway Code questions. By rights I should have failed, but the examiner passed me because my driving was good and told me to have a good look at the Highway Code.

I'll take that as a reminder...
