How to stay calm on your Driving Test

Staying calm and composed on your driving test is a difficult thing to do. But if you prepare before the driving test, then things can be a lot easier for you.
Before you taking the driving test you need to be honest with yourself, if you can drive on your driving lesson without your driving instructor helping you or your family member helping you then you will be confident with your own driving standard and you will be ready for your driving test. If your driving instructor is having to step in and grab the steering wheel or talk you through a roundabout, then you are probably not ready for your driving test and you would need more practice.
On the day of your driving test you can help yourself to stay calm by arriving outside of the driving test centre in advance, so you are not rushing. Rushing will cause you to become nervous and you will lose your focus.
It is quite normal for you to feel nervous in the first few minutes of your driving test, just stay focused on your driving and your driving ability will take over the nerves.

i passed on wednesday with only 3 minors, couldn’t have done it without your help. thankyou!

[Abigail-Rebecca]

When I took my test (many years ago) my examiner was the chief police driving examiner...no pressure then! That said, he knew exactly how to put me at my ease and did what my instructor did on my lessons and talked to me all the way through, of course allowing me to concentrate when needed. Passed with flying colours.

Now, I am about to go through it all again as I am, in a few weeks, about to take my RoSPA advanced driving test for which my observers are pinning me for a gold - again I will say, no pressure then.

This is great but it's heavily based on people whom have a car or someone to practice with .I don't and my instructor barely had any lessons so like one two at most ever and with all the covid lockdowns it's really been hard keeping constinstancy. I've got test on Tuesday and instructor only has one lesson this week before .

Hi Forgot to ask, when I had my driving test, I think had two manoeuvres, one was forward bay park and reverse out and the other was park up on the right and reverse back 2 car lengths, am I right in saying this is two rather then one, makes me think I did the first one wrong. But to me it looked fine

[charlie]

I have my test tomorrow at 9:00am wish me luck
Be back with an update great video👍
