I wouldn't call my a bad experience, but. . When I went for my driving test, I was third in line. The instructor checked out the first car and there was something wrong - like a headlight out or something - so that person couldn't take the test. The next car in line also had a similar problem, so that person couldn't take theirs either. Now it was my turn, luckily I was in my parent's car so nothing was wrong. I must have had a very lenient instructor because he let me try parallel parking 3 times before I was close enough. So, yes, I did pass it on the first try.

You think you got problems, I couldn't even pass the written test on the third try. I am usually pretty good with written test. I think that this on is a mental block thing. I get real nervous behind the wheel. If I pass the written test, that will be my next step. I'll be driving down the street seemingly aiming at people, just trying to get home.

It is a log time ago, more than 5 years from now. I started to learn to drive on spring and after 3 months I went to take the driving test - and I was very surprised that I have passed with the first time. If you know how to drive then most likely you will pass the test. Now driving is just like my hobby.

I did but should'nt have. See, you are not suppose to be able to take the test unless someone over the age of 21 is with you. My boyfriend took me. He was 18. So they shouldn't have even let me take it. Plus the parking brake didn't work or the turn signal, again, if those dont work you are not suppose to be allowed to take the test. Also if you can't parrallel park you are suppose to automatically fail the test. Well I told the guy that I couldn't do it & would probably end up hitting one of the other cars so he told me not to even try it. Then he had to tell me to slow down 3 times, another "automatica fail". Plus I screwed up on my turn about.But he was a nice (& hot) young guy & said that he was going to let me pass so he wouldn't have to ride with me again. Lucky me, he was so nice.

I passed my driver's test on the first try. But when I went to an adult Driver's ed class, my classmates were all drunks, so they quit after the 2nd night. I had the instructor all to myself for the rest of the weeks and I received 3xs the amount of driving/training because I showed up and the rest didn't. The day of the test, a kid kicked a ball to another kid who missed. The ball went out in the road, and I stopped the car. The testing person was glad that I did because they kid might have run out after it, but didn't. That side road was the worst one to go on because kids always play close to the street and run out in front of you, although this one didn't. But could have. Take care
