No, unfortunately he failed Crying or Very sad

The dreaded U turn, he can do it no problem, but put his foot down on the test Crying or Very sad

and road position on a right turn, too far over to the left (about a foot) Crying or Very sad

Next time...................... Thumbs Up

trouble is he picked up a fixed penalty last week so he has now surrendered his licence and has to wait until he gets it back before he can book another test. Crying or Very sad

you know the best thing is not really to wish him luck, infact when people told me good luck, like all the people at work it just ment more pressure. next time dont borther telling any of his family that his doing it, that way he has alot less pressure thats what i found best anway.

and i still havent passed lol.... its that gay u-turn

bad luck anyways andy

He was really cool about the test, his attitude was "I know what I've got to do, and I know I can do it" he wasn't nervous at all.

Aww...bugger Crying or Very sad

Never mind..it's not the end of the world.

I didn't tell anyone at work about my test. Told them I was going to the Doc's..so wasn't scared to fail.
I crashed the bike the morning of my test too. Bluddy hell..I don't know how my nerves stood it !! Mr. Green

Good luck for next time to Andy xx

Second time i went 40mph in a 30mph zone i thought was a 40mph zone (road in and out of test centre) examiner said he let me off on the way out... but not the way back In
