watching driving test feels more scary than watching paranormal videos

Just passed mine, first time thankfully. My instructor said think like you're a limo driver driving a VIP, you want it to be a smooth drive with smooth accelerating and braking. During the test I didn't look at the instructor once and didn't make any general convo, I treated them like google maps giving me directions and I wasn't nervous at all during the test. As others have said, exaggerate head checks and just take your time with everything.

I have mine tomorrow and I'm scared af. Seeing this video gives me a bit of relief of what will really happen. Thank you for posting!

edit: Sadly, I failed. To all those who will test please exaggerate your head checks because the tester might miss it. They said I didn't do head check before turning but I did. Second mistake, was my mistake. Asked me to pull up to the curb for stage one, signalled and I failed because I didn't wait at least 3 seconds after signalling before pulling to the curb. Please learn from me
edit2: I had completely forgotten about this comment. But I am glad to say that I passed! Number one tip given to me:Think as if you are driving with someone you love. Make the trip safe. Don't think that you're being tested. Focus on making the drive safely and efficiently. In the end, you and the driver's goal is to make it home safely. it helped me

From a commercial driver, very smooth driving, excellent and clear instructions from the tester. Only point I would like to bring up, and I hope the tester mentioned this after the drive, use your indicator, but don’t wear it out. If you are turning into a turning lane, and there is multiple driveways along that turn section, indicate to enter the turn lane, then turn the indicator off until closer to the actual turn, so less skilled drivers don’t think you are turning into one of the driveways and go to pass you. This “Correct” distancing will come to you with experience. Nice move asking if you could reverse park at the end, as the tester hadn’t asked you to do one. This shows initiative, and ticks all the boxes of a test scenario. I’m glad they didn’t ask you to do a three point turn line I had to do decades ago, as there is no harm in going around a block to go the other way. It’s also safer, and less potential to obstruct traffic.

Thanks Devin! I appreciate you recording this!
My anxiety was through the roof until I watched your video the night before the test and thanks to your video I was able to calm down!
I passed 1st try :) - I went straight to my greens because of my age…

[AmanpreetKaur-hljb]

My test is on 1 April at Dandenong wish me luck 🙏🏻

[stephenpodgorski]

I know you've heard this a lot, but it's really good to see someone has shown a video of what the test is really like. I have mine tomorrow and the nerves are creeping in, mainly due to not knowing what to expect. I only just learnt yesterday Vicroads don't provide the cars and you bring your own... and that the reverse park is a reverse parallel park and not into a square parking lot. Really appreciate this more than you think man, cheers

[michellebatica]

Congrats!!! You did well and your instructor is very nice hey...

[WanderTravelExplore]

reminiscing on my actual driving test 2 years ago same route. Wasn’t as good as you.. it feels like I’m gonna have a heart attack as I’m waiting for the next instruction.🤣but happy I passed. Congratulations. Thanks for sharing and have a safe driving.

[grinblurnar]

In my driving test years ago I did reverse parallel park between cones. He said make the car safe so park, handbrake etc. sat there for a minute, then told to pull out and drive back to testing centre. In that pause, I lost a point. I couldn’t believe it. Sitting there in park with handbrake on, I had my foot on the brake. I lost a point for unnecessary wear and tear on the brake lights!!!! 🤦‍♂️

[wasifbinaziz]

[benbt]

Thanks a lot for your video Devin. Giving mine tomorrow damn i'm so hyped right now.

[clairedeng]

Hi, thanks for sharing the video with us. I have one questions, 19:53 when you were going to turn left, you parked your car after the zebra crossing, can you see the oncoming vehicles from your left? as I have known, we can stop our car along the line if there is no pedestrians.

[miaa]

Great driving! But like other commenters said, you indicate incredibly early to the point it can confuse other drivers. When I was learning, I was always told to start indicating two houses away.
Assuming you'll be on your Green P's now and have nailed all this already though. Awesome job :D
