    I'm sure I'll be pretty nervous as well for my driving test. Oh, the pre-trip...

    Trilleth, how did it go?

    Just a little info, not like it will matter, cause once you pass you wont be backing anymore being a skateboarder with your hubby. LOL...

    But real life alley docking is about 100000% easier than those stupid cones. that part of the skills test is probably the dumbest thing I have ever seen.

    Failed again. How can I remotely believe I should be driving a truck when I can't pass a test? Sorry to everyone who tried to support me, but I can't deal with failing again, even if I had another $30.

    I don't think I'll be posting here anymore. Sorry again. :(

    I went to teh same school, you get all day for days on end to practice your skills test, hell I was sick of doing it after the first few days, I think she is just nervous or something, I mean they even teach you how to turn the wheel and how much to get it to hit every time.

    And I went to the same school as well, what D1 says is right on. We practiced and practiced and practiced and they showed us marks to hit and it went really well. It must be the nerves.....

    That wasn't the case with her class. The instructors didn't do much to help and they only had a day or two of practice before being thrown into the test

    I think i'd keep testing, they make you pay for the school one way or another
