  hello people.

  i am gonna have my TP (driving test) soon .

  i am ok on the road, but i suck totally in the circult. i really need some advise on my driving test. such as never argue with the tester or sth ?

  heard that the testers will just fail u if they see u like a young punk, and a potenital road hazard. true ?

  any peeps in the same boat as me ?

   

  EDIT

  monday is my TP leh. i am someow confident and not so confident.

  i am confident that i know how to do everything, on the road in the circuit.

  i am not confident of moving around in the circuit, my instructors have been telling me to wad get near the white line so that i have ample space to do the parking.

  then wad i should stop where and where to look out for this and that. i seriously don't know how to move around in the circuit.

  some advices from the drivers ? :(

  i got my first attempt jus on 6 of march. my advise is jus be calm. when u tink u did something wrong.dun panic.jus do ur best. on my test date itself, i book a circuit lesson before i go for the test. it was raining heavily and i tot die liao jus within one min driving, the tester tap the front and i ebrake and the whole car died. -.-'' morale drop..man..den when the tester ask me u turn in front..i stop at the wrong junction..i cant c any u turn sign den i know the u turn is infront.the tester say forget it..i tot died liao but in the end i still passed with 16 pts. :) guess u must show the driver overall u r safe. den he will passed u. gd luck dude

  jia lat liao, my instructor ask me to wear the thin sole shoes for driving lessons so that i can feel the clutch, and i have been wearing slippers for my driving lessons all the time !! how ? die laio omg !!!

   

  so far i only have promblem in the circuit, my instructor say i very blur inside. the blur he mean is that i don't know the road, where to turn and which is the respective station inside the circuit.

  aiya, i am just worried about the circuit cause inside got so many hidden immediate failure.

  i am a private student not from the school one. i taking the test at CDC ar ubi there.

  Guess the only thing u can do is take more lessons in the circuit in order to familarise the road. anyway during test, u jus need to listen to the tester. he say turn right u turn right..he say left u, u turn left lor. gd luck

  Be in car, make sure your seat belts are on before you move off.

   

   

  be relaxed and chit chat with your tester as you are driving.

   

  And if you have to make a slow and difficult u-turn or change a lane.  Offer your left hand onto the rear view mirrow to thank the car drivers behind.

   

  If they horn you, then do the same to 'apologize' nicely.  Not your middle finger pls!
