Going for My P's Driving test on Wednesday. Advice Plz

[Zombie]

I agree with the others, go for the test in an instructors car.

When I went for it, in the lessons preceeding the test he took me over the likely routes, even showed me where they will want me to do a 3 point turn. So when it came to test day I had done it all before.

Also the instructor will usually know the tester and that means they have a bit of a chat during the test, which takes a bit of focus off you

Good luck, and safe driving

Thank guyz, i will use the instructor car, and go for a lesson right before my test.

look foward to going cruisin after i pass

[martydaman]

you know where to go

[krzysiu]

And where might that be?

[martydaman]

well, firstly you go to my place (after aquiring the skyline for an indefinite period of time) and then we go crusin. November 12th is bookmarked and you know why...

If you can, go down to Dromana to do your test, its the easiest test location ever.

Definately get a lesson and do it in the instructor's car.

Make sure you stop for at least 3 seconds at stop signs, even if it is safe to go.

Nuh i already booked it at Oakliegh. Dont really want to go out that far for the test lol. But im 100% getting a lesson before the test.

i find the following things very odd:

- i know you think you can drive, but only 1 lession before the test??? i had 4 lessions and that was for an auto lisence not because i needed them for skill but i learnt so much from the instructor re safety, learning the roads, how to 3-point turn/parallel park properly by their rules etc... the fact that you are asking SAU how to change gears before a turn/roundabout means you are in serious trouble at the minute

- i can't believe you are/were even considering doing the test in your car :confused: come on mate...

if you ask me i would say postpone the test for 2 weeks (what's 2 weeks in the context of a lifetime of driving) go get some lessions and tee-up the car you are going to use. learn from your lessions, don't show off to the instructor. they are trained to teach you.

who are you organising the lesson through?

i did my test at oakleigh (got off my p's at end of august, so did the test 3 years ago), and as for the do's and don'ts... ummm, follow the road rules!!! obviously being a learner they expect you to go slower than slow! hands at 10 and 2, head checks all the time, dont do any roll backs, they expect hand brake starts if on a hill etc, roundabouts - id recommend being in second as it means you have to slow down, which is a good thing, especially in the test! and means you dont have to come to a complete stop, but of course, always safer to stop, again especially in the test!

Thanks ted

DON'T DRIVE AN OVER POWERED CAR WHILST ON YOU Ps. HOW STUPID ARE YOU?

No I'm not kidding, I'm not sorry and I don't detract the question.

1) You will be on your Ps which to me indicates you have very little experience ( shut up, don't argue )

2) You'll be in a powerful car with very little experience ( to me that says suicide )

3) In doing so you are putting yourself, you passengers and other drivers at serious risk.( to me that says immaturity and culpable driving )

4) You risk, defects, fines and demerit points by breaking the law.

Personally, as a member of this community I hope you are caught fined and canaried for driving an overpowered car whilst on a Probationary license.

A tip from me: take your first drive through Knox. When Officer Pettet nails you, AND HE WILL!!! Shake his hand for me.

And don't even think about posting a whinge on here about it because all you'll get is a big finger and laughter coming from me. You demonstrate the sort of attitude indicative of MCCR. Join them, don't tarnish what good name SAU has left.

I am appalled that you are so willing to break the law.

Grow up and pull you head in.

oooh someone has a stick rammed far up his arse...

There is nothing U can do about it so shut up and stay on topic.

This thread is not about Driving High performance cars on P's so please do me a favour and **** off

wardest is correct.. one day you are going to get absolutely reamed when it comes to something or other. Lets hope you survive.

Personaly I think you have rocks in you head taking your skyline on your driving test! I'd book 2 lessons with and instructor and during the second lesson use hisher car for the test.

[krzysiu]

Its kool i already got an intrustor car for a lesson and for the test

Skyline will be hidden in the garage

[adznight]

Nice, well just rememebr to pretend your an old slow driver for the test and always come to a complete stop at stop signs and unbroken lines. I know ppl who have failed for that. Also remember to head check and use your mirrors. They want to see all the safty aspects of driving so keep it slow, steady and smooth and you'll be fine. Main peice of advide I can give you though is relax, if your relaxed you'll do much better. It's not that scary really, no diff to driving on your L's, all you have to do is show them what you've learnt.

Still.....your ARE naughty for driving that beast on your P's. Do us a favour and stay out of the headlines ok. Before you put the foot down just think how much fun it is sitting at home whishing you had a skyline to play with
