| new on here, failed test.... Hi everyone, i am new. my names stuart and am 22, passed driving test first time when i was 17. passed cbt 1st time (in july), and 100% on the bike theory test. however........I have just got back from failing my big bike test in Enfield for the second time! first time in Chingford i left my indicator on after a right turn and had only one minor. this time in Enfield, i left my indicator on after a left turn! 4 minors, what the hell is wrong with me? i feel confident on a bike, with my instructor i am generally faultless minus the one or two minor things which pop up every now and then....but always seem to remember to turn my indicator off, any advice??? Stuart PS not as angry as i was the first time i failed....this time just a bit annoyed (thank god the new test has been pushed back so i can give it another try soon!) |

| Re: new on here, failed test.... ello stu & welcome. I'd be feckin livid failing on such teeny weeny poxy things as those, you can obviously ride well enough. just a bit of extra concentration needed (or get an indicator buzzer fitted)  |

| Re: new on here, failed test.... welcome from me too. I'm new here also and i know how it feels to fail your test. At least we dont have to worry about the new test just yet though. I booked a retest for November and got charged the new price of £80. Whats the betting that i dont get £20 quid back now that the new test has been delayed. |
