    Good luck.

    And watch those corners!
    Jump one and the test is over, so swing as wide as is safe and make sure your tandems are set forward.

    Few things are easier than the road test. If you don't perform the "special stop" before crossing any sidewalk between the exam station and the street, most examiners probably won't even notice.
