Hey Jimbo, your videos have been helpful so far but I have one small doubt. Let's say you and another driver both approach a "give way" sign (basically he is diagonally opposite to you). Now in this case, if you wanted to go straight and the other driver wants to turn right, who gets the priority to go first?
The driver going straight goes first. Then the driver turning right goes second.
hey driving test guy NSW, i passed first try at bankstown today and loved watching your videos in the lead up to the exam, they were so helpful
Hi Jimbo Thanks for all the tips. pass in one take.
Congratulations Richard on passing 1STGO!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Thanks for all your videos just passed first go this morning, appreciate the help!
Congratulations mate on passing 1STGO!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Hi Jimbo, Got my Nsw license from Castle Hill on the first attempt. My overseas license has been converted. Thank very much for detailed tips and informations. Amazing job. 😊
Congratulations mate on passing 1STGO at Castle Hill!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Jimboooo I’ve passed 🎉🎉🎉 thanks for your videos they really help, I passed at first attempt, thanks and thanks again ❤❤❤ my test was today at Macquarie park. I have overseas license and it was really easy.
Congratulations mate on passing 1STGO at Macquarie Park!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Jumbo how far should we push in
It depends how big the intersection is, but at least up to the second crossing line.
Jimbo i passed first go! Massive thanks mate. Watched your videos every day for a few weeks beforethe test. Just bought you a coffee- keep up the good work!
Congratulations mate on passing 1STGO!!! Great work 👍 Thank you for your support and thank you for the coffee ☕
Hi Jimbo.. I am an overseas licence holder and passed today - got the full licence. Your videos helped a lot. Thank you
Congratulations mate on passing!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
How can I learn to drive with you?
All the info is here www.thedrivingtestguynsw.com.au
As you said that a learner's license is needed to get lessons even if you have an overseas license. Can I then book a test directly to get a full license, or will i get red P after passing the test? My overseas license is 6 years old.
Will i be allowed to use a 1996 Ford festiva for my driving test?
Yes.
Hi jimbo just got my full driving license it was really easy after watching your videos the instructor were really impressed thanks a lot 😊gonna buy you a coffee for sure
Congratulations mate on passing!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and thanks for the coffee ☕
Hi, Jimbo! Would you known if an overseas licence has been expired just last 30 Dec 2024, if the person can still take a driving test? Thanks!
@@sammplified1939 My understanding is that Service NSW will take you out once for a driving test with your situation.
Hey Jimbo! Very late! - You helped me get my red Ps back in 2021! Finally got my Full License in November last year! just wanted to say thank you!
@@fireaussie7511 Congratulations mate on gaining your full licence!!! Great work 👍
Hello Jimbo... How many maximum Observation error and how many signal to pass the driving check
3 observation errors or 3 signal errors and you are out !
Thank u mate@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424
If I enter the roundabout when the guy on the right-hand side is stopped, and since he has stopped and the oncoming path is clear, I move into the roundabout to turn right. If the guy on the right also slowly pushes into the roundabout at the exact same time I move in, will the examiner ask me to stop and fail me?
Well it really depends. What doesn't help is the bizarre roundabout rules that you give way to those already in the roundabout. So if you get on first you have priority. However it really gets down to this, at the moment you enter the roundabout, if you force the other car to have to brake and there is a near miss regardless of who gave way to who then you would normally get a fail. This will probably happen more with smaller roundabouts as the car on the right is closer. If you both enter at the same time and there is no near miss then should be no fail.
Just passed my driving test in the first time. Thank you, Jimbo. Your videos are really helpful! Great work!
Congratulations mate on passing 1STGO!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
My instructor said that you need to do full 360 scan, left to right even when pulling out from Kerb. Ur saying only do right side check. Is there a negative marking if i do full scan??
If you want to do full 360 scan then do it. I suggest do left side first and then right side. They don't mark left side but you need to check right side just before pulling out.
Can you do the test centre at tuggerah please.
Hi I recently took my driving test in Aubrun New South Wales, and I encountered a challenging situation at a stop sign near an intersection. I had to cross the main road to go straight, but my view to both sides was blocked by parked cars along the roadside. Adding to the difficulty, there was an uphill slope from my left, further obstructing my view of oncoming traffic. After coming to a complete stop at the stop sign, I slowly moved forward to where my car’s front was aligned with the parked cars to get a better view. However, I still couldn’t see clearly to my right. When I saw that there were no cars approaching from my right within my visible range, I began to move forward cautiously. At this point, a car approached from my left, and I stopped immediately. However, a car also came from my right, and since I had moved slightly past the alignment of the parked cars, the vehicle from my right had to maneuver around me. The examiner deemed this a hazardous situation and failed me, stating that I obstructed the intersection and created a dangerous condition. what is the best solution! thanks!

Thank you for your clarification
Hey i was wondering if i can use a car with illegal window tint on my driving test
Well you can try...you might even get away with it.
Do you need to do head checks when turning left or turning right?
@@ciscoenzo6827 It's a good question but cannot be answered with a yes or no. I have answered it in some videos particularly the head check video.
Hey Jimbo, this series is very helpful, it helped me pass 1st go. Thank you so much ....
@@sanmanborate8645 Congratulations mate on passing 1STGO!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Thank you
Thank you for your answer!
Hey Jimbo great video, I actually didnt know about the left and right on red check which you talk about at around 8:02, and was just wondering, why is that scan required?
You have to do the head checks before you leave the lights to see if anybody is running a red light to your left or right.
@@aegis2505 Yes as Christopher says you are checking to see if someone is running a red light. Go to the Dash Cams Australia channel and you will see this in action.
Hi Jim! question, if you are reversing trying to get out of a car park during the actual exam and somebody decided to go though, will you get a deduction should you stop? Even if you are already halfway done to complete the maneouver? Thank you!
@@NicholeBradleyPineda I would say that if the other car is about to hit you then stopping is good. If the other car stops and lets you out then don't stop.
Hi Jimbo, can I get a quote for a mock test costs around Castle Hill or any place that is convenient for you?
@@melisamendez6888 Hi Melissa unfortunately Castle Hill is not an area that is close to me. I would have to quote you 3 hours (1 hour there, 1 hour for the test and 1 hour back) This would currently equate to $255. The other problem is that I have no idea of the Castle Hill test routes. I have no idea where Castle Hill Service NSW is. So even if you wanted to.pay $255 I still would not be able to deliver a Castle Hill mock test.
I want to express my heartfelt gratitude! You are an amazing instructor. I just passed my test in Gregory Hills on my first try, even without any driving lessons, and I know I couldn't have done it without your videos. Thank you so much, Jimbo. You truly are the best! ❤️🌹💕
@@safa199317 Congratulations Safa on passing 1STGO at Gregory Hills!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Hi! Can i shutt down the car in neutral ?
You can pick the order but it needs to finish in gear with manual.
G'day Jimbo I have a question when approaching an intersection and theres a stop sign I'm turning left and the car opposite is also turning left who goes first? I should know this being a P2 driver
Do you mean a car turning onto the same lane as you in the same direction or a car turning onto a lane in the opposite direction?, if a car is opposite you, and turning onto a lane in the same direction as you, you are closer to the road as you are turning left, which means you have right of way, and the other vehicle has to wait until you have taken your turn, if he comes across the intersection before you come to a complete stop you have to wait until hes cleared and then proceed, however if you are both stopped you are first.
Jimbo you are saving lives
I recently converted from my red Ps to my green Ps and I still watch this channel. Great reminders for what to do on the road.
Hi mate congratulations on the greens. Thanks for watching 🙂
yow.. same! I still watch him he made me pass easy! all the questions you need he has and had an answer ❤️ months to go on my full licence!!
I passed on 1st go because of your videos 😀💪👍❤️
Hi jimbo is salim shaikh froam singleton thanks for your help we lear lord of think i have a driving test on next week i m waching your vidio reguiy any hint please let me know thank you very much have a good day
Hi Salim my best advice is watch all my videos, particularly the How to pass series. Best of luck next week. 🤞
Do you pick which variation the test car will be?
Well yes as you bring the test car.
If unsafe, could just wait until lights go amber/red till oncoming cars stop then complete the turn?
Yes that's right. But you don't wait till oncoming are stopped but you judge that they are stopping and then turn otherwise you will be in the middle too long and the side cars may start going.
Hey Jimbo, I passed my driving test on the 1STGO today at Warners Bay NSW. I booked the test yesterday and immediately found your channel. I watched your videos non-stop for 5-6 hours and successfully converted my Sri Lankan license without any issues in the rain. Thanks, and keep up the great work. You are a HERO!!! 😇
Congratulations mate on passing 1STGO at Warner's Bay !!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Passed my driving test yesterday and safe to say you helped me SO MUCH. I wouldn't have done it without your RUclips videos helping me gain more confidence and providing valuable feedback from other students' mistakes/habits for viewers to learn from. Despite the rainy weather and crazy traffic at Gregory Hills. I passed with flying colours. Even my dad learnt a lot from your videos, so a big thanks from us both.
Congratulations mate on passing at Gregory Hills even with the rain !!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
I just passed my NSW driving test today on the first go, despite the rainy weather! I want to express my heartfelt thanks to you for your amazing videos that gave me confidence and helped me drive safely. I’m incredibly grateful for all the tips and tricks you shared. For those preparing to take their driving test soon, my advice is to stay confident, drive carefully, and trust in your preparation. I hope everyone achieves success in their test-best of luck!❤❤
Congratulations mate on passing 1STGO!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
enjoy your hot coffee in this rain which i just bought for you 😊. Thank you…
Thanks mate. Take care. 🙂
Hey Jimbo, just wanted to thank you for your awesome videos. I’m an overseas license holder who recently moved to Australia, and I needed to get up to speed with NSW road rules and driving customs. Your videos were such a huge help-not just while I was driving on my overseas license but also when I was prepping for my driving test. I pretty much watched all your videos before my test, and they answered every question I had. I did a couple of lessons with a great instructor for some extra confidence, but your videos really made a difference. I did my test at Gosford and passed on the first go with a score of 106/106. Thanks so much for what you do!
Congratulations mate on passing 1STGO at Gosford!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Passed my driver’s test first go @ Silverwater, Jimbo! Had an overseas driving license which I got converted. Watched your videos and they really helped me judge the gaps, in decision making and rules in NSW. Highly recommend everyone on watching these videos. They are very informative and as true to the real situations as they can be❤ You are doing a commendable job teaching us clear the exams!🎉
Congratulations mate on passing 1STGO at Silver water!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
can you change gear then turn the wheel while your foot is on the brake?
When slowing down hill you generally keep your brake on while changing gear. You can turn the wheel anytime.
Can we just cover the brake in cases where we only need to back off the accelerator just to be safe or is that too cautious?
Yes often that is all you need.
Hi Jimbo, Yor videos are great and are so helpful. I have one question, What is the min speed limit I need to go if I am travelling in a 50 zone? Is there any lower tolerence limit for P test?
Hi mate it depends if you are in residential or not. If not in residential you need to be within 20km of the limit unless there is some hazard. But generally don't drive to unnecessarily slow holding people up.
Hi jimbo, am transferring my international license to Australia license, please do i need to buy an L sign plate and stick it on my car on the test day? (02) When doing a 3 point turn, how time do you have to indicate? As you do the 3 point turn (03) if i do a head check were it is not required, is that a fail? (04) Can i please get a voice instructor like the one you used?
Hi mate (1) you don't need L plates. (2) Just follow the directions re 3pt as per my 3pt video (4) All good if you do head check not required. (5) Don't know about voice thing.
@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 thanks so much for these!!!!
Hi Jimbo I have my overseas license, which I got back in 2019, and I came to Australia on July 1, 2023. I want to start driving now. Can I take driving lessons on my overseas license, or do I have to get learner's license first, and then when I am ready to take the test, submit an application for conversion? Can you convert to a full license after having got a Learners license here only to practice with a driving school?
