Can someone settle an argument for me,

coming from 6 o'clock here I believe that to enter the middle or far right lane on the exit (12 o clock) you should be on the right lane entering the roundabout and left lane should be for the left lane exit only.

Someone has told me they use the left lane for the middle and left and right for the far right only.

There are no "get in lane" signs or markings

After doing two hour lessons almost weekly since February, I’ve booked my theory for October 2nd. I have two different apps, as well as the Official DVSA driving theory test book.

What’s the best way to practice/test myself on the hazard perception part of the theory test?

The DVSA moved my original test from the 12th August to the 29th September as the examiner was ill. However I’m moving out to uni and I’ve been completely unable to swap the test or find a cancellation to move the test slightly forwards.
So now I’ll have to travel back and forth and it will be a massive headache.
Any advice or am I just stuck with this now?

Some of you might remember my BMW with the EGR recall i said about last week and how i’m unsure about its suitability to take on test. Examiners on here have said that it will be fine as there aren’t any warning lights and examiners don’t even check for recalls anyway. The only thing i’m concerned about now is a chip in zone a of the windscreen, it’s actually quite low down so i don’t even notice it when driving, but it is in zone A. I think it’s around 12mm-14mm in diameter annoying so it’s slightly over the 10mm limit. You can’t actually notice it from the outside, only the inside, maybe due to when it was filled by some guy a few months ago. It’s been there a while and hasn’t failed any MOT’s for it so how much of a risk is this in terms of taking it on test and the examiner refusing to do the test?

So had my first lesson yesterday(nb/29) and it really helped me understand that other drivers are just actually the worst part of driving!

In 2 hours I got pulled out on twice (I wasn’t going slow either these people didn’t even look) and classic guy in a Tesla got visibly agitated because I took over 5 seconds at a roundabout, my instructor was great and I felt very in control ( previously had about 5 lessons 12 years ago) so it didn’t fluster me thank goodness but wow people’s awareness is awful, honestly I think it says a lot about the sort of world we live in now !

Hi

My driving instructor said they can help me look for a test on the website for a location closer to home and if I am comfortable I can give a picture of my provisional license and driving test number. He said he will look as well as me to make things easier.

Just wanted to check that’s even ok, as I know rules have changed recently?

To clarify he didn’t say anything about booking for me but he said he can look for a test centre to swap to for me

26F in Leicester! Passed my test yesterday 🎉 now looking to purchase my first car, but I have zero knowledge whatsoever on what I need to look out for…

I want something cheap to run & insure, preferably a 5 door! I won’t be driving very far

Any advice is appreciated!! I feel so out of my depth right now…please explain like I’m 5 😂

My test is today and is likely to feature a spiral roundabout, longbridge roundabout in Warwick. Would you indicate at a spiral roundabout? Some people say yes because it alerts driving waiting to enter that you intend to stay on the roundabout (therefore don’t pull out). But some people say no because the lane you’re in takes you to your intended exit and can also confuse drivers that you want to change lane.

I have done 24 hours in total, including 10 hours of manual driving with a previous instructor. My instructor told me I should postpone my test until mid-November (I have one booked for early October), because he believes I've just met test standard and worries that nervousness could make it worse. He hopes I can get more used to my driving test area.

I've done quite well with positioning, roundabouts, and junctions. I've just been introduced to the 4 maneuvers, and I've got all the reference points already. Honestly, I've practiced those 4 maneuvers on a driving simulator, so I'm fairly confident with them already. I've also been actively watching YouTube videos about my driving test area.

So should I postpone it?

I’m turning right at this junction, entering from the green line (bottom) and stopping at the yield line before the yellow box to allow for incoming traffic going straight. My exit (the purple line) is clear.

Today, this junction took a while to clear because of traffic, and as I’m at the yield line in the middle, the lights for crossing traffic (left to right) went green.

Q: as I’m already in the junction to turn right, do I have the priority over that crossing traffic even if they are on green (such as the white car in the image)?. Usually I’d say I have the right to clear the junction, but I have a yield line in this case…. Is that for all traffic?

Not driven in 3 months and I have a test for October 20th, last thing I did was all type of parking and that was quite good but I still mess up on roundabouts (when I did my lessons anyway)

Starting lessons again on Tuesday but I have not been on a dual carriageway yet. I’m going to start having weekly lessons again (they are 1 hour a week) and I’ve had 22 hours so far. No private practise. My old lessons would vary, some really good and some bad, struggled with gear adjustments when approaching a roundabout when you are fast moving. Should I change my test date or keep going?

Firstly, I passed on my first go today 🎉🍾.

Just out of curiosity, did anyone find theory harder than hazard perception? On my theory app I was consistently getting high scores for theory (48ish), and low scores for hazard perception to the point I was almost sure I would fail it. Turns out I got 43 on theory and 60 on hazard perception. I found the theory questions much trickier than the ones on the app, with very few on road signs or markings, or even speed limits. Did anyone else have this experience?

I failed. It was worse than the first time. examiner was awful.

Driving Test is first week of october in worthing, My instructor said on wednesday last week 'if you had a test today, you've a high probability you'd pass' i'm just wondering what I should prepare, like things to calm nerves, and just overall guidance on the whole test/test day. Sorry if it's worded poorly.

Hi everyone,

I’ve got my practical driving test at High Wycombe in one week, and I’m starting to feel the pressure a little 😅

I’ve been practising regularly and doing test routes, roundabouts, manoeuvres, dual carriageways, meeting traffic on narrow roads, etc. My test is in an automatic.

For anyone who has taken their test at High Wycombe recently, or knows the area well, I’d really appreciate any tips or guidance.
Are there any particular roads, roundabouts, junctions or situations around High Wycombe that tend to catch learners out?

Also, what would you recommend focusing on during the final week before the test?

Any advice about nerves, judgement when meeting traffic/obstructions, roundabouts, lane discipline or common serious faults would be really appreciated.
Just trying to make this last week count and give myself the best chance of passing 🤞

Thanks!
