[Kazi]

First time just under 2 years ago with 6 minors! Clean sheet to date! :D

[Claire G]

Passed 1st time! <does a little jig in honour of women drivers>

[javadude]

Should people who take say 5+ times to pass just not be allowed to drive as passing was obviously a fluke and they have no aptitude for driving?

[Parthiban]

Passed first time but with 9 minors :o

Makes you a better driver I say, you gotta pass with the highest number of minors! :P

[aido]

First time here too, thought I'd failed as I saw him marking the sheet as I was driving out the car park but he was just writing my name :o

100% on that theory test too, only took a few minutes, bet it was harder than a A Level though :P

[Damer]

Failed twice when 18, too many bad habits picked up driving around on L Plates in my old 1200 Beetle. Couldn't afford to take test or have lessons again until I graduated from Uni. Got it second time around then, got in trouble though 'cos I got a job saying I had a licence, but I failed the week before I started

So had to go cap in hand on the first day and come clean, and passed it a week after

[lexus boy]

passed first time for the first and second time. no minors on second one four on the first one :D

[Diapason]

Passed first time on the morning of September 11th 2001. My elation was somewhat tempered by the afternoon...

[T7RY B]

2nd. time. First fail was because I was at the wrong test centre! It was 3 miles away. So I was late and it was classed as a fail !

That was back in the 70s. In a Cortina 1600E

[Adie]

Third time for me

I had a problem with jumping red lights.. and apparantley thats a stonewall fail :D

[gsportcars]

Passed first time and it was only 10 days after my 17th birthday!! :P

I only had three lessons too!!!

The only contreversial thing about this topic is this:

When learning for your driving test, the instructors teach you how to pass the test and not actually how to be a good driver so this is not always an indication of a good driver!

Somebody told me that one time and I thought it was fairly correct!! :D
