Special tip for those who live in London..! Try booking your test outside of London in the nearest town from where you live. I took my test in Chelmsford (which is fairly close to me) and it was much better than in Bromley, where I took my first test and failed :/.

@sohamdan489 19 күн бұрын

Thanks for the tips bro, I am also in Bromley. Is your driving instructor has no preference of not going into far test centre?

@JulioSilvaUK 19 күн бұрын

@@sohamdan489 Well It depends on where you live and how long your lessons are. If Bromley is close to you, then I’m sure you can go there with your instructor. But if it’s quite far, you’d have to see what your options are and how you’d carry out your lessons.

I have my test in mid June. I think it’s also very important to have the right driving instructor who can modify their teaching style/ lessons that suits you. I’ve change instructor four times because Ive been shouted at which traumatized me, until I found my current instructor. My current instructor is amazing as he is very patient and approachable, he will try different ways to make me understand and motivate me. I’ve noticed that I’ve dramatically progressed.

@JulioSilvaUK Ай бұрын

Yes, having the right instructor is the core to having a successful driving test. I’m glad you’ve achieved that :)

Hola, in my case, I can drive since 17 years ago, I mean the first time I went behind the sterring wheel was at the age of 17 years, now I have 34 so I'm an expert driver. The problem is that I passed both tests in my country but they are not worth here so I have to re sit them again and DVSA does not have available slots all the time so it's being a pain in the ass try to book a test. If anyone has another alternative to book a test, please let me know. Gracias.

@JulioSilvaUK 17 күн бұрын

I understand it takes a long time to book your test, mine took half a year. If you go on the DVSA website at 6am on Mondays they will have new slots available, but you have the be quick!

You didn't say that how many hours you had private practice. You can't get ready for test with 20 hour lesson

@JulioSilvaUK Ай бұрын

I didn't mention the private practice hours cause I wasn't sure how many I had. But yes, you can be test ready with 20 hours with an instructor, I didn't learn anything new with my dad.

@colinjava8447 29 күн бұрын

Some people can, I had 60 hours cause I had to wait months for a test, so just continued with the lessons. Only after about 40 hours did I start to settle and lose my nervousness, which is kinda weird cause I like going fast in my own car, but in a safe manner. Not been over 60mph though, not worth getting a speeding fine and points.

Good work on mentioning your camera you used in description Which test centre did you take your test Julio? i would suggest Veygo for learner insurance Yes correct; you have to find a driving test Monday’s six am. Clear view driving and others are good for learning to drive test.😊

Have you downloaded the app I mentioned in the video? I believe it’s the most effective way for you to understand the test, even if your English is limited. You’ll be able to associate the questions with the answers a lot easier.

@aroarinsuccess Ай бұрын

The DVSA recommend 45 hours professional instruction and 20 hours private practice. Everyone learning ability is different so even DVSA’s advice is only a guideline. Some people may take many more hours, some will take less. Some people have learning difficulties or anxiety. 20 hours like you is giving very misleading information.

@JulioSilvaUK Ай бұрын

It’s not misleading… it’s how I passed. If I did it, I’m sure others can as well.
