Hahaha, i failed 3 times over minor things


1. Its was a rainy july (last year), and i had a really alright guy, but he seemed to be a bit more strict...... I failed because i didn't clear up my foggy window (my parent didn't teach me on that, and the testing guy had to point out the air con to me).


2. It was around late july (just after my parent came back from europe) (thanks fuck the weather was sunny) and i failed again, because my mum went shopping before my driving test, and forgot to shut the boot properly, so i failed because of that. Also had the same guy as my first test, but he was far more lenient than last time


3. I was talking to my mum cousin (his friend is a driving instructor) about how i failed twice, and he suggested that i do my test in liverpool..... So i took his point, and in early August, i got up around 9am, got a bus to the city and a train to cabarmatta, and i arrived in cabarmatta, and we did drive around cabramatta and liverpool, so i can get familiar with the location. But however i wasn't as confident as my second test, because my friend committed suicide a few days before my test, and i wasn't as focused as i was usually was. So i did my driving test (it was a fat old guy, but he seem a bit strict, look like david campbell (some guy who used to be transport minster for nsw). Strangely i wasn't doing too badly, but when i was turning right from hoxton park rd to hume hwy, i screwed up badly there (i was on the furthest right lane, and i idiotically nearly rammed into a truck, and he had to intervene, because i was going from futherest right turn lane on the hoxton park rd to the middle lane of the hume hwy). Also i didn't use my own car, i use the instructor car.


4. A month later, i finally passed my P test and its back at the same location as the 2nd time and on the same route. Funny that, its was just before I did my IPT end of year exam (in year 11). Had a chinese guy, and i got 99% in the test


(Oh yeah, if your wondering where i did my test the for the 1st, 2nd and 4th, I did it in Warriewood, which is in the northern beaches). Also tell me your stories of you failed your P test, and your location

have failed twice...
one because there were too many cars in my lane, so i went on the other side of the road(partially) to overtake these cars, and apparently i was driving "recklessly".
second time was because i put the handbrake up at a traffic light( instead of keeping my foot on pedal brake) and i forgot to put the handbrake down when launching off( light went green)..tyres were screeching, smoke was erupting and instructor was like " that's sick mate... now here's a fail"...

Hahaha, I'm half asian to be true..... my mum is full asian and passed on her first go. Its wasn't that i do things on purpose, the first bit was partly due to bad luck, but at the same time i didn't know what to do if the window was fogging up, the second one was due to pure bad luck, which i didn't notice, but the third one was by accident. Lucky i didn't fail any stop signs, speeding and whatever....

Lucky the 2 places (warriewood and liverpool) didn't have stop signs at the rta carpark exit....... the warriewood one was inside a shopping center, so we had to exit a shopping center carpark

I honestly think that if you don't get 100% on the driving test on the first go (or subsequent goes) you should repeat 20 hours of the log book. as you stated OP "failed 3 times over minor things". if you are failing on minor things, what makes you capable to drive in difficult conditions?
driving is a privilege not a right, and I hate to think that any retard who can fluke a pass mark is going to be driving on the road next to me

It sounds like you should have failed to be be honest.

Once. Car in front of me reversed through a traffic light, and I was in their way.
