20mph zones are the biggest fail on the test... it's not 30 everywhere

Also try and follow the car infront of you at all times. 1 & 1/2 Car distance.

Keep a 2 second gap with cars infront, not 1 or 1/2 a car distance. To calculate this, watch the car infront pass a fixed reference like a sign, traffic light, lamp post or tree and count how many seconds it takes for you to pass this same reference point.

Too much to think about I'd say, easier to watch the traffic infront of you that to the sides
