 Posted: 16:41 - 26 Mar 2005 Post subject: Theory test booked :) **PASSED** |
 |
|
I've finally booked my theory test for the 8th of April. I'll be doing my full test by the end of April then, I have the cash saved up woooo.
I can't wait to get a 600, so fed up with having to scream the nuts off my NSR to get a decent speed out of it.  ____________________ Current bike: VTR1000F Firestorm. Previous: Firestorm (written off) - XJ600 Divvy - NSR125 - DT125 and a load of offroaders.

Woo hoo!! I just booked mine too!
30th April @ 10am.
I've got my HP CD right here, hopefully sometime within the next month I'll actually practice!
It does seem odd having to do a theory test again. I did my car theory test almost 7 years ago!  |

When do you think you will be taking your practical test then Karen?
My practical test is 4th May You should both go through the theory easy, it isn't as hard as some people make out.  ____________________ Be careful whose advice you buy, but, be patient with those who supply it.

Well I passed. 35 out of 35 on the questions. 51 out of 75 on the hazard perception.
That hazard perception test really is a load of cack. It really doesn't bear much resemblence to actually driving or riding in real life. It's really not worth the time and effort. But, alas, the law states that you must have that shiny certificate if you want to do your practical test. Ho hum...  ____________________ Current bike: VTR1000F Firestorm.

I disagree I think HP is actually very good. It has changed the way I ride in the fact I look aheead of me and assess the situations more than I used too.  ____________________ Be careful whose advice you buy, but, be patient with those who supply it.

The best one to get is called "driving test success" it costs a tenner from most pc world stores, i give them out free to all my pupils and every one has passed the theory first time just as well cos the retest for the theory can be up to 4 weeks eeks.
And no the hazzard perception bit is not fantastic just remeber the 2 second rule, click on hazzard wait 2 seconds click on it again job done ____________________ www.dgridertraining.co.uk |

The trouble I find is that you don't get peripheral vision with a shitty 15 inch computer monitor. You don't get the feeling of being on the road. I'd rather spend £20 on fuel and ride around looking for arsehole drivers to practise avoiding.  ____________________ Current bike: VTR1000F Firestorm.
