    Well I gotta go back and do my road test! I messed up on merging and I was nervous because out of 4 people taking the test I was the first one up and just worrying alot made me not pass. Going out Sunday with my Pop driving and practicing with him so I can get some more time with a trailer on. Thanks

    I'll get it right next time!:biggrin_25510:

    Welcome to the boards. Being nervous can sure mess up a good thing. I hate being first, but at the same time I don't like to wait either.

    Don't sweat it! I didn't pass on my first try either. Nerves combined with being in a truck I wasn't familiar with got me.

    Just relax. Put your mind on the road. I took my test in a snow storm and passed with flying colors. Don't let the rig intimidate you or the instructor. Just focus on the road and carry on a normal conversation like you were old friends. Just my opinion, It worked for me!
     
    Lilbit and billh Thank this.

    I know how you feel. I only slept for 5 hours the night before my road test. Just too nervous. However, once I started it was a piece of cake. Just hang in there.
