Twice, once for test and once for advanced

Re: How many times to pass a bike test?

I have had to pass mine twice. My original licence (test passed at 17) lost the bike bit when I moved house and I only noticed when I decided to come back in the fold. My pass was one of the records that got destroyed when there was a fire at the dvlc years ago, so the b*stards made me take it again about 6 years ago.



I read that smoking weed destroys your brain cells - so I gave up reading

Re: How many times to pass a bike test?

Second time for me. Still don't believe it, my examiner was just a knob I failed for stoping at a give way and only 2 minors.

Second time I had 4 or five minors including putting my foot down
