All got to say thank you because I need this!!!!

[shimueljones]

Thank you, passed my test today. Advice to those who are about to take the test: Don't overthink it, it's not as hard as it seems.

Basically here's how to pass your road test summed up. Drive cautiously and like you are constantly very aware of the dangers of driving. The instructors don't want to see how good of a driver you are. They want to see how cautious/careful of a driver you are. There's plenty of drivers in all different kinds of races and supercars that are phenomenally skilled drivers but they drive dangerously as hell at the same time due to having to drive as fast as possible for their sports. That's a great driver but not a careful/cautious one. On you're road test, be a careful driver, better to exaggerate it than not.

I just passed my driving test this morning. I missed a few points on the parking but it turned out okay. Making tiny mistakes is okay as long as you realize your mistakes and go on. Its not as hard as some people say. You got this buddy!

After 2 fails I finally got my license! It's pretty easy for the evaluator to fail you for simple mistakes so keep your head up if it happens. Failure doesn't necessarily mean you're a bad driver. Keep practicing and go at it again. You're bound to get someone who believes in you. But for me I took a step further by contacting a private license and professional dmv agent that helped me to write a provisional letter to bypass the test drive and i was given a provisional driver's license which will last for 12 months. I got a license now and it will serve for 1 year then I renew again.
My little advice.
* If you think are too nervous for the test drive then you can easily switch to a provisional driver's license which you won't need to test drive.

I have my third test tomorrow and I'm so so nervous. I have to pass this otherwise I cannot attend my college classes for the spring semester., So wish me luck.

1. 2 shoulder checks for lane changes!!!
2. keep a 2-3 second distant between the car in front of you
3. Have correct lane positioning
- Don't stay too close to parked cars, shoulder change and move to the other lane if needed

Thank you for the tips sir!

I failed my test today and can’t stop crying. I feel like an absolute failure. I was driving too slow but I didn’t agree because I hit all the red lights on that street so I didn’t want to have to make an abrupt stop if I started going too fast. None of my family failed their test and everyone is making fun of me, which just makes me feel worse. I’m taking it again on the 24th, so we’ll see if I fail again

Just passed my drivers test and the main advice I would give to anyone taking the test is to breathe, stay calm, and be alert. As long as you do that, and have had proper practice, you will crush this test. I did just that and I passed with flyig colours. Practice, and stay calm.

Doctor Rick, I took my driving test an hour ago in WV and I passed on first try. Your videos were a tremendous help, specially parallel parking, I aced it! I practiced almost everyday for two weeks and it paid off. I am ecstatic because I no longer will have to depend on Uber or anybody to get around from now on.
Thank you so much!
Keep up the great content!

[clairekosowan]

Thank you so much! Watched this video this morning and then I passed today after failing twice. Every time I failed I would get so discouraged I would stop practicing my driving. Even if you've failed before it's important to keep practicing and trying again. Know that you are not defined by those failures, that they are learning opportunities for the next test. I did almost everything wrong last time, ended up over the curb when parking, and knowing that I already failed caused me to mess up a lot of other things. This time I learned from my mistakes and only lost 5 points for signaling too early, thanks to watching a lot of your helpful videos and practicing every day. Good luck to everyone on their upcoming tests!

[Lea-mqyi]

thank you so much i passed my test today with a 95% my instructor said i did amazing i watched your videos and they made me way more confident! i couldn't have done it without you!

[saramcdonald]

I failed my first test this morning. I suffer from severe test anxiety so I’m looking to make some more improvements before my next test! Thank you for the help

[just_adeni]

When he was talking about the difference between 2-way stop and 4-way stop signs, he might as well have been speaking Chinese to me because idk why it just doesn’t go through my thick skull 😭 I have so much trouble understanding what to do at complicated stop sign encounters. Who goes first? Which direction? I have a feeling I’m gonna fail the road test over this. 😢

[alexys]

Your tips really helped out. Took my test today and passed on the 1st try. Thanks!

[nikkiconrad]

Just took my test today and I passed first try! Rick, thank you so freaking much your videos are the only thing that got me through it! You are awesome!

[MightyRaisin]

Class 5 road test in an hour or so… I can safely say I am nervous haha
Update: Passed 100%! The class 5 road test was waaay easier then the class 7 road test. Staying calm is the key!

[fjennewell]

Watched this the night before my driving test (10/20/23). Thank God and thanks to this channel for the last minute tips, I passed! ❤

[chandrapearson]

Passed my test today! Thank you so much for this video. I failed my first test, and was feeling like maybe driving just wasn’t for me after all. I’m 46 in a month and I just got my N today! I was SO nervous, I almost didn’t go to my test. When all was said and done, I had 3 minor mistakes. I’m sure these were due to nerves. I was so happy when she turned to me and said congratulations! I still can’t believe it. Thank you SO MUCH! And for anyone out there worried if they can pass it. You can, just breathe and remember to do all your mirror, signal, shoulder checks and obey all laws. If I can do it, you can. 🎉 cheers!

[PhatBoyFresh]

Learning a lot from this channel, thank you. I've been driving for practice for a while, but I'm still terrified of failing the test. My whole family thinks I have it in the bag, but fear of failure is a curse in my life.
