Talking My Test

hi guys, want to start off with thanks for all the info and help which i got of this forum!

wish i had come across a thread like this i could have been more at peace of mind..

so i had my test on monday 3pm at enfield.. i dont know the area so on sat and sun i spent most of the day driving in enfield..


all starts of well, im driving around doing my mirror checks, lifesavers and cancel indicators. then the u turn... i was asked to walk the bike around which was fine.. but the examiner had parked in a way that i did not have a lot of room to do the u turn so i had to do it imdiatley...

so i kinda rushed the turn, and my foot hit the road but i carried on the u turn. so i did the next 20 mins of the test thinking i had failed and i almost switched off not caring about the rest of the test.

so we get back to the test center and he takes me to the office, sits me down and says that to fail u need more than 16 minors and i only got 4 so i PASSED!

luck was with me that day, about the turn he said that i still had control of the bike and that i jus used my foot to padle.

my advice to anyone who sits the test, is always try your best until the test is over and even if you put your foot down on the U turn.

good luck to all who takes the test!!! ;-)
