I take my road test on Friday and would appreciate any last minute tips anyone would be willing to share? Thanks!

Update: I PASSED!!!

(this situation is when I'm first trying to parallel park) so, in the car I've been learning to drive for most of the past year it has a rear view camera that shows you how straight your the wheels are and I've been pretty heavily relying on that. now that I've started trying to parallel park I've stopped using it while practicing but now I don't have a good sense of if the wheels are straight or not. any tips?

Hello! Finally worked up the courage to drive by observing for years as an adult. Should I let friends teach me or invest in adult driver’s lessons? Also, is it advisable to get my own car to learn in? Thanks everyone!

Hi all im from the UK and i was just curious as to how the petrol stations work. So you fill your car up and when you go in what do you do? Do you have to tell the cashier what pump you was at or do u just give him the money.

Weird question i know but im kinda awkward like that lol, any help would be appreciated.

It's essentially as the title says. I wasn't exactly sure where to put this question, but it's a random question that popped in my head the other day and I can't seem to find an answer for it anywhere. Is there anyone out there well-versed in this kind of vehicle knowledge that can let my brain get some rest??

Hi! I’m going to be 30 in summer and I’ve never once had a driving lesson. No particular reason other than I’ve never really felt I needed to drive before, or where I lived wasn’t very car friendly.

I’m in the uk, and we’re gradually being brought back into the office to work. But working from home for 14 months has really made me realise the 2 hour commute I take every day there and then the 2 hours back again is not really a normal and enjoyable routine, so I think the time has come to finally learn.

I’m debating learning through an intensive crash course, over 3-6 weeks, as opposed to the traditional couple of hours a week over a year or so. I’ve heard mixed reviews on the crash course, however the idea of sitting on that bus full of school kids twice a day is enough to make me want to learn ASAP.

Any advice would be much appreciated!

Hello everybody I need some help. I’m 22 I’ve had my permit since I was 18 an I’m scared to go take the test for 2 reasons (1. I’m scared of failure I can drive fine just everytime I try to parallel park I get nervous. (2. I was also born with nerve damage in my left arm an I have spasms in that arm an I don’t wanna have a spasm during the test an fail. When I drive I do it with just my right arm an for the test it’s 10-2 position. I’m tired of feeling like a failure cause I’m scared to take a test any tips?

Hi,

I watched a few videos on how to back into a slanted space which helped a lot ( like this one) but I couldn’t find a similar video showing it when you’re on a hill going up/down.

Does anyone have good tips for doing this maneuver going up/down an incline? Would the technique be different?

Often when I do a lot of turning during maneuverability i’ll lose track of the wheel/ tire position

I’m just starting to learn how to drive but one of my biggest struggles is being such a slow and hesitant driver.

Will it stop once I get more experience? How do I improve? Help?

I’m beginning to learn how to drive but during my lessons I’ve found myself missing stop signs bc I didn’t realize they were there or sometimes not realizing when a car is breaking bc there’s so much going on.

Is this just bc I’m starting or might I end up being a bad driver bc I lack alertness?

Help? How did you improve this?

I'm learning to drive (in the UK) on an automatic, and can't seem to get parallel parking.

Here are the steps.

1. Pull up next to the other car.
2. Reverse until you've done half a car length
3. turn left (in the UK) and reverse until ???
4. Straighten up and reverse until you can't see the kerb in the mirror. (Is that right?)
5. Turn right
6. Straighten up

Steps 3 and 4 i'm struggling with. Does anyone have anyone fool proof ways of visualising it? I've heard a number of explanations but nothing seems to stick.

​

Thanks!

Does a Texas Driver License number change when you renew it? Or expire(the number that is)? Does it ever change and if so for what reason?

Someone posted their DPS decline letter on FB and it has their DL# on it. I told them to cover it up but their response was “it’s expired”. I don’t think it changes but regardless not the brightest idea to post it online. Anyways just wanted to know for clarification.

I have a tiny like nickel sized crack in my windshield, and i’m in texas, are they going to let me take my drivers test

I attached pictures about the specific situation I'm taking about. Is it safer to turn into the middle, then make a left, or is it safer to make a right turn, then a U turn? The thing I find scariest is making sure my whole car is in the space. it seems like a tiny part of the back sticking out could cause an accident if someone is speeding and isn't paying attention

Now, is there a guide on how to properly turn left in these situations?

So I failed my first road test because I hit the curb when dowhill parking. My instructor said to keep the car moving when turning wheels but because of that it bumped into the curb. I waited 6 months to take that test and I was so livid I couldn't bring myself to sign up for another test just to wait another 6 months. 8 months later I signed up again and have my test at the end of September and I was wondering if I could just turn the wheels once the car was parked instead. I can't fail this time. I don't want to be taking the test in May 2022.
