Get a good sleep and eat an hour before your test. This will help keep up your energy levels which will help to cope with the stress. Keep saying to yourself, I can do this. If you get the shakes start to take three to four deep breaths, then repeat. Good luck.

SUPER HELPFULL. My driving test went pretty much word for word as James points out in this video! A helpfull tip i used myself was to spend the entire test as if i had already failed (sounds silly i know) it helped me relax and just enjoy the test more and focus on driving, and as james points out in the video, just be slightly more cautious than you would usually be when out driving, they are looking for you exercising the skills you have to keep yourself and other road users SAFE. if you stall or something goes wrong with the car like the wrong gear, just stop. chillout. refocus. restart. EDIT: Passed with 10 minors (whoops) I was being over cautious! Had to retry a parralel park without being asked and i was commended for realising i didnt have enough room, dont worry about fixing your mistakes!

Tomorrow is the third driving test I willl have taken in my life (now aged 54). First test when I was 17 in UK, second test when I moved to New York, USA when was 35, now moved to Channel Islands and am taking my third test. I am the most nervous for the test tomorrow because if I fail it will be as if I am a complete novice, when I have experience of driving in New York City and in all kinds of weather, even feet of snow. Only accidents have had were when others drove into the back of my car. Your videos are very helpful and you are a very calming and encouraging instructor, so thank you.

Any advise on having your driving instructor in the back of the car? I'm quite a nervous person so Im not sure if I would feel comfortable getting in the car with a complete stranger e.g the examiner I think I would panic and get really anxious. On the other hand somebody told me my instructor told me that the examiner is more likely to mark you down for things because the instructor is in the back. I'm not sure what to do? Although having two people watching me might feel hirendous.

@JamesTravis 7 жыл бұрын

Vogue Girl that's a great question. Firstly the examiner will not mark you more harshly if you ask to have your instructor in the back of your car on the test. They are professionals and are required to be consistent with the marking and to be fair. Why don't you ask your instructor to have a friend in the back of your driving lesson for the first 10 minutes to get a feel of what it is like having someone else in your car. It can help you cope with nerves.

hi James, my son and I keep watching your videos and they are honestly so useful and well explained. His driving test is on Tuesday 2 May at 8-05. I am not sure if you can answer this question but I wanted to ask from your experience, do you know what test route they are most likely to take him on at that time of the morning? I am sure he has done everything with his instructor and he had lots of lessons but his nerves are dreading me, he failed 3 times but honestly all 3 times I was saying he was not ready, but his instructor still put him through this, which was wrong I think. I go with him every weekend for a couple of hours so I thought I ask you this, as we still have today-tomorrow for a final practice , I would spend more time going over these routes which he is more likely to get. If you can't answer this thats OK too. Thank you in advance. x

@JamesTravis 7 жыл бұрын

+Lara Martin. Hi, I don't know which route. But I have been told the examiner will take the pupils on routes that are flowing rather than sitting in traffic. I would expect then to avoid the b & q area at that time but go down to the back of Bletchley town centre via under the railway tunnel. Then head over to fenny, through the double mini roundabout and across to Simpson and then back to Mk via Neitherfield and past the hospital. This is just one way.

@LaralittleTV 7 жыл бұрын

OK thank you! sounds like a route Ni 5 on your video selection. Thanks again. If he doesn't pass I think he will try to approach you as he is watching your videos and said the way you speak makes you feel comfortable, which is true - even for me with 17 years of experience...Thanks again

Best of luck on your test.

How often do you have to use your handbrake? The car I'm learning in the hand brake is automatic and I see loads of people on KZfaq setting off with the handbrake on then taking it off

@JamesTravis 7 жыл бұрын

DB.TV good question. If your car is an automatic release when moving off then you are ok. With using the handbrake, when and where is your own preference. I say to my pupils if you are waiting at a junction with out handbrake on and that wait becomes a longer period, then use handbrake. Hope that answered your question.

When I passed my test, there was an unusual start, the examiner said, “Ok when your ready, let’s move off.” He wasn’t wearing his seatbelt and I had to tell him to put it on. I was wondering does that happen often, is it part of the test?

That’s not part of the test

Happened to me as well. I waited for them to put it on and then they just gave me an odd look because I didn't set off straight away when they asked.

TempestSlayer that’s really odd. That’s bad on their part

When I'm doing my practical test and I have to do independent driving and he tells me where to go can I ask him again where he wanted me to go? It's just I'm terrible with directions and I tend to forget easily so I know for a fact if he tells me where to go I'll end up going the wrong way

Hi, yes you can ask again during the driving. All you need to do is say, "sorry I have forgot, can you please repeat the directions, or can you please repeat what signs I am looking for." Try watching my video on my KZfaq channel "independent driving test tips."

I don't think I would hack a lesson just before the test, it would shake me up and build the nerves even more. I might start making mistakes that I wouldn't normally do and it could translate on the test itself because of the cumulated nerves. I'd rather have my instructor pick me and explain their actions whilst they are driving.

Hi James, my son failed his test because of nerves. He had plenty of lessons and his driving is generally good, its purely nerves, hesitation and silly errors like indicating left when going right...He re-booked for 24th May at 8-10, so we wanted to ask you if you would agree to take him on for a few lessons - the way you talk seems to be very calming and would be ideal for him. It is such a shame to fail because of the nerves when in general driving is not bad. Is there any way to contact you not via public comments? Thank you in advance.

My test is in Leighton buzzard and I've heard it's the hardest town to pass in but the instructors are really nice Apparently

@JamesTravis 7 жыл бұрын

+Sophie Laureen it's one of them towns where you have to be good at meeting traffic and road signs. Lots of slow roads with lots of zebra crossings. I would recommend you visiting the area to have a drive round. I think the pass rate is around 45% which is below average. Good luck with your test.
