Damn! Failed mod1

[Fem1]

Failed my mod1 this afternoon on the hazard avoidance

[recman]

Unlucky.

What happened?

[Fem1]

Everything else went fine no minors just one big fat serious

Went to fast and hit a cone sodding cones i am gonna have nightmares about those cones!!!!!!!

On a lighter side once the examiner had his little chat with me he gave me a new name: Kamakazi Deb....

Oh the shame

[recman]

Not a lot I can say except slow down a bit next time and sweet dreams.

hmmm i dont think speed is the issue, more your exit trajectory from the bend, get that down and boom, you can blast through the hazard avoidance as fast as you like

Sorry to hear.

I'd put money on you looking at the cone and getting a spot of target fixation.

During my mod1 attempts I was 99% certain the conical little buggers had legs!
Good luck for next time

Booked mod1 but could only get January. Doing das so the dreaded January 19th date doesn't affect me.

Yeah them bleeding cones had me twice on mod 1 passed on the third attempt and 1st go on mod 2.
Definitely look at the far blue cone as that is where you will go and you will miss the cone.
Also make sure you go through the speed trap and then reduce the throttle otherwise engine braking will slow you just a few km/h maybe not to pass. This is what happened to me as i was too slow on the 1st attempts of the 2 mod 1s that i failed.
Also when you went through did you notice how fast the place where you should stop comes up?
BTW what was your speed through the trap?

[MeatHelmet]

I'm the same, failed it on Tuesday.

Figure of 8. Just got wider and wider and foot down before I hit a cone. Couldn't believe it, never had a problem with it before!

Gutted.

Did everything else spot on.

Rebooked for the 11th.

You'll get there. Good luck for the retest.

Bad news but this means you will pass the Mod2 no probs

I used to practice my swerves anytime I was on a cleat bit of road and doing 35MPH and used manholes and speed humps as targets.

[Rogue_Shadow]

Exact same thing happened to me buddy
Felt like go back to finish it off

My instructor told me so many people fail this bit of the test & he noticed that some would have passed, if they tucked their feet in on the side where the cone was.It makes sense as those few inch's makes a difference between a pass or fail.Good luck next time

You may have flashbacks later in life..
