Floating Fox Posted 9 June 2008 Posted 9 June 2008 I passed my theory test a week ago. Just got to wait for my instructor to book my practical test now.I think i could pass now tbh, i've had nearly 40 hours of lessons. Can't wait to get a car! Your instructor books your practical? I booked mine... Yeah but be honest, 4 lessons. unless you had a rich mamma and poppa to pay for you to be insured on a car to practice on i wont beleive you can go from having never driven to passing in 4 hours. 30-40 Lessons is the average to pass... It is easily done, and you dont have to have rich parents. I don't believe that anyone can go from not driving at all to passing their test in with 4 hours of learning. Unless they worse a skirt in their test....
Floating Fox Posted 9 June 2008 Posted 9 June 2008 How do I go about booking a theory. Book Mock Tests

Tilley Posted 9 June 2008 Posted 9 June 2008 Good luck pal Cheers buddy. Just done my first Mock Theory, Got 37, only 6 off
potter3 Posted 9 June 2008 Posted 9 June 2008 Cheers buddy.Just done my first Mock Theory, Got 37, only 6 off It's mostly common sense except for stuff like stopping distances, and hazard perception is pretty easy, just don't click too much
AoWW Posted 9 June 2008 Posted 9 June 2008 good luck iv got my first one on the 20th as i turn 17 woo.... eek , what do you generally do on your first lesson ? no sarcy coments like drive haha It normally includes the heel 'n' toe technique, rev-matching and double de-clutching, plus the occasional handbrake turn.
Uncle Albert Posted 9 June 2008 Posted 9 June 2008 Billy Kee passed in 4 lessons apparently That he did.
Floating Fox Posted 9 June 2008 Posted 9 June 2008 Still not sent my provisional off. I just did 100 on the motorway.
lildave3 Posted 9 June 2008 Posted 9 June 2008 I just did 100 on the motorway. Good stuff, shit yoursen? Meanwhile, pick me up tommorrow old chap.
lavrentis Posted 9 June 2008 Posted 9 June 2008 Can't wait till I'm 17. I'm not hanging around like a muppet. When I get my car, I am going to drive and drive and drive and drive and drive. Hopefully petrol prices will have gone down by then.
AoWW Posted 9 June 2008 Posted 9 June 2008 I just did 100 on the motorway. Daft git. Get done for doing over 100 and you can kiss your newly-acquired license goodbye.
sdb Posted 9 June 2008 Posted 9 June 2008 I just did 100 on the motorway. hope you're not 1 of the people slagging off the plymouth keeper...
Lichfieldfox. Posted 9 June 2008 Posted 9 June 2008 I've just realised you're all kids on here! My eldest kid is 17 and is learning to drive. I'm a member of the totally fookin brave parents club. Respect your parents if they help you learn to drive as I've realised after 2 near misses how dangerous cars + 17 year olds are.
Scow Posted 9 June 2008 Posted 9 June 2008 My brother was driving old bangers illegally for a couple of years before getting a bit of sense. Because he could drive, he only needed 3 lessons. I had about 40 lessons in the end, but that was partly down to being lazy in booking the theory.
Floating Fox Posted 9 June 2008 Posted 9 June 2008 Good stuff, shit yoursen?Meanwhile, pick me up tommorrow old chap. Sack off, for the last time. I'm not going to pick you up so you can see over your fence! Can't wait till I'm 17. I'm not hanging around like a muppet. When I get my car, I am going to drive and drive and drive and drive and drive. Hopefully petrol prices will have gone down by then. Petrol won't go down. Was actually surprised how far 15 quid got me when I first filled up. Daft git. Get done for doing over 100 and you can kiss your newly-acquired license goodbye. Don't get caught then! I did actually shit myself when one of those Volvos that the Traffic Cops have came up my mirrors going wayyy faster than me, but luckily it wasn't a traffic cop, just a nutter hope you're not 1 of the people slagging off the plymouth keeper... I wasn't pissed. And I was insured. And thats just for starters. I had about 40 lessons in the end, but that was partly down to being lazy in booking the theory. Same here.
