  Thats the main thing liao lol. Cause imo they look out for safety more than anything.

  The rest up to your skills lor. Like controlling your pedals when you're on a slope etc, just dont panic la.

  as long as can perform normal day standard, most likely to pass.

  like kenny said, safety checks more important than anything.

  Blindspot and most important is, don't panic, once you panic, you will nervous and tend to turn too early or late. Trust me.. As for slope, don't rush, take your time.

  Good luck and all the best!
  Hear your good news tomorrow!

  act confident and be relax. and also be polite and respectful towards the examiner.

  the tp prefer to pass confident drivers and close 1 eye over some minor mistake, than to pass a nervous driver who tries too hard to impress. e.g. unnecessary checking of blindspot etc.

  just show them that you can do the stuff without major hiccups can already. they also human, and know how stressing it is to drive under test condition. they will try to pass you, provided that you don't self-own yourself.

  I don't think any slot of the timing for TP test is bad because you really have to see how well you did in the test and also must see the tester mood too.. Just pray hard that you will join the P plate thread!! Haha..

  does it help that im a driver at SCDF? lol..

  I believe the most important thing is that you must show the tester that you're confident in your driving. If not, then they'll just use all the blind spot / safety checks as excuse to fail you.

  Peak hour is tough cos there're lotsa cars and they're all going faster than you (e.g. hard to change lanes).

  When I took my test, I had to go a little over the speed limit in order to change lanes. The tester pointed this out after we came in, I apologised, but he still passed me.

  Since you're a driver at SCDF, I suppose you're already reasonably good at driving. Just be polite, humble, but show that you're confident

  Congrats.. If you wanna start driving but no family car / friends don't want to lend you, you can start asking around for some rental companies that rent cars to P-Plater.

  We will be glad to help..
