Jim! I'm 27 and was too scared to get my license for 10+ years. I passed my P's test first go today in Corrimal, only one mark down from a perfect score.

Thank you so much Jimbo for all of your videos! I passed my Ps test first go at Brookvale with a 96% score! I couldn't have done it without your help and the awesome tips you give for every aspect of driving in the test, thanks again!

Hi Jimbo, I owe you a coffee!! I passed my Ps test at Macquarie Fields. They did take me to ingleburn however I was taken to a slightly different route to your mock test. Your videos helped me quite a lot, especially the head checks videos! Thank you soo much!!
Thanks Jimbo, this video has come in perfect time as my younger brother had his test at MacFields testing centre today and passed 1stGo. I can also confirm that he went to Ingleburn. We would not have considered there if we didn’t watch your video, so luckily we had a practice there before the test. As a full licenced VIC driver who is also the supervising driver, your videos also helped me especially for the 3 point turn. Thanks, you legend! Will be shouting you on your coffee tab shortly!
Hey Jimbo, I just took my test today at Macquaire Field and just passed first go. I watched your videos before I took the test and they helped me a lot. Thanks a heap. And I also saw you training someone in the car.
Hi mate congratulations on passing 1STGO at Mac Field!!! Great work 👍 Yes i was there today. Prob saw you as well. Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Hey Jimbo! I've been with my overseas licence for 18 years, but I had to do the tests to be able to transfer it to a full licence in NSW. Even with the experience, I didn't know what the test was like here. Thanks to your videos, I just passed on the first go!
Hello Jimbo, Thank you so much for your vdos. I watched a lot of them and I passed my driving test first go yesterday! Your explanation is excellent and not confusing. Everything is so helpful. Thank you for taking your time to help others. 😁
Hi Jimbo! Just passed my test 1ST GO in Botany with a score 107/107 and converted my overseas licence to a full NSW. I've watched a lot of your videos, some several times, and it's helped me a lot!! Huge thanks for your hard work

Hi jimbo! I am international student and I got my license by watching your videos. Test centre CORRIMAL. Thank you and highly recommended for my friends
Passed 1st go thank you to your vids jimbo really helped me alot, highly recommend macfields test center to anyone living nearby it really nice instructors too
Hey Jimbo I passed my test 1st go at Rockdale last week and I have never had an instructor. Thank you for going above and beyond with your videos with which if I hadn’t come across I would’ve failed my test.
Hi Jimbo, Thank you so much for your incredible driving test guide videos. I passed my driving test today! 😊I managed to avoid many mistakes today by keeping your advice in mind. Your mock test video and other videos were incredibly helpful in preparing me for my driving test. Your clear explanations and helpful tips. Thank you for sharing your expertise and being such a fantastic resource for aspiring drivers like me.
Question for clarification. At 7:19, we don't need to signal when reversing left, then right then signal right when pulling out? I've already passed my 2nd time (thanks to binging your videos 🙌🏻). But the first time, the examiner had that issue in my 3 point turn.
Hi Ronie from my experience you don't signal when reversing on the 3pt. It's not in the testing officers manual so as far as your test I don't really know. But congratulations on passing 🙂
I took a driving test overseas licence conversion yesterday and passed in first go also got unrestricted licence, thanks for the tip - From Tamworth NSW 😭👍
Hey Jimbo, Nick again with another question! I know it’s a bit of a hike from your area but is it possible to one day in the future make a mock test regarding the Roselands test centre? I’m going there for my Ps in a couple months and i’d love to see a video on the test route
Hi jumbo just wanted to let you know that I passed my ps test first go because of your help with out your help I don’t think I would have passed than you Verry much
“Big thanks to Jimboo and his amazing videos! His videos are literally a life saver. They were super helpful and gave me the confidence to pass my driving test today at Macquarie Fields on my first go.
Hey Jimbo, I have booked test on 25th January at 3pm . I am confused Do I need to follow school speed limit or not ? I heard school holidays but not sure. What should I do ?
Going for my test on the 2nd of feb. In regional/rural nsw. Can they make you do a rear to curb 90 or 45 degree park during the test. At the test centre we start and end in a front to curb 45 degree. Just asking as my instructor hasn’t specified.
Hi Sophie it is possible that you may do a rear to kerb 45 (not 90) deg park. It depends if that is how parking is in your area and if the test routes uses them. Your instructor is really the person to ask as they would have local knowledge.
Today I went for my test at macquarie fields, cancelled, examiner said we will check blinkers and brakes, then saw the tyre and said poor tread, he cancelled the test. Please make a video if you could guide what things must be checked before going for test on a manual car, Thanks
Sorry to hear what happen today. I have done a video that goes through this stuff, but I have done so many vids it just gets lost. On your booking confirmation printout it lists what need gets checked with your car. It's basically signals and brake lights, good tyre tread, no broken lenses on the lights and no excessive windscreen crack that obscures vision. Best of luck next time 🤞
Hi JimboI! I’m also interested in Edmondson park area. There is a driving test centre there and no driving mocking test videos. I really appreciate it. Thank you!
I have a driving test in Maqurie Field very soon. I just drove there once. I Don't know whether i should give try in Maguire field or not. I am so scared.
Hi Jimbo, thanks for your vids. Pls at 26:29, if you had taken the 2nd exit (Wattle Ave) you would have come to a children crossing with a stop line. What is recommended here in case school zone is not activated and there are no children or pedestrian in the area?
If the crossing is not activated as a children's crossing then just treat it like a standard crossing. Basically that means give way to people about to cross but you don't have to wait until they are completely off.
Thanks a million for your help!!!! I just converted my ODL on IST GO!!! Same route as yours and I had practised it a zillion times hahahaha@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 🙌🎊🎉
Hey Jimbo, passed with 95% today at Macq Fields although not being super familiar with the area, this video completely prepared me for the area and made me feel much more confident. Thankyou so much!
@@masondemanuele1516 well first off don’t stress it goes by really quick, make sure to look out for the speed signs because there aren’t many, most areas are either 50 or 60 and beware of the schools zones if your test is in any of those times, there will also be quite a few places where you’ll turn left with room for a car to come up beside you so once you indicate make sure to do a head check to your left back, other than I found it all pretty simple
@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 this is my third attempt, my first attempt I did at st Mary’s and I had an instant fail because I couldn’t see behind a parked truck and a car pulled in front, and the second time I failed at Penrith due to going 50 in a 40, I’m just nervous, will an instructor fail me for asking the speed limit too many times?
I failed 3 times already and I’m nervous to go for my test I love the rta has set up these testing centres around Sydney my main problem is being nervous
Hey Jimbo! I go for my driving test on the 30th and just wanted to ask a question. My instructor says its okay to use the space where there is a solid white line and merge over to make a left turn... Is this a good practice or not, I am just doubting this maneuver for my test. Thanks!
Hi Jimbo thanks for the videos, I just have a question on dividing lanes. Are you legally allowed to cross double/single unbroken lane when turning into a driveway? Thanks in advance
@@watamarlone1169 I'm trying to understand how the cars behind affect you turning right into a driveway across unbroken lines. Can you add some more info ?
I have parked cars to the left of me, then I start holding up traffic behind wanting to go past me and head straight, while I can not find a safe gap to turn right into the drive way from oncoming traffic on the opposite side of the road because it is relatively busy. Is it safe and legal to hold up traffic while I wait for a safe gap?@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424
With non residential you need to be within 20km of the limit. So technically on such roads 45km will not attract a fail but it will hold traffic up a bit and may cause them to dangerously go around you. If you can get familiar with the area then I think that helps.
Hey Jim, Highly appreciate your work, thanks for making videos to help community in passing their driving test. I’ve got driving test tomorrow at Macquarie Field. Finger crossed hoping to pass in first go. Cheers mate 😉
Hey Jimbo, at age 32, I triumphed over my first driving test(Score:108 no Head Check mistakes and no Signaling mistakes), never having driven before! 🎉🎊 Your support made all the difference. Coffee's on me ☕️. Thanks a ton!
Hey Jimbo just did a Macquarie Fields ps test on the 22nd just a heads up im 99% sure i got marked down for not signaling in the test center car park but passed first go.
Hey Jimbo! My name is Nick. Could you please make a video relating to entering and exiting motorways and freeways and how your speed needs to be taken into account? Cheers!
@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 certainly I would, even if I don't come back to watch your videos (which I still would), your indomitable voice telling me the correct driving techniques will reverberate in my ears whenever I drive in the future. Now, that's called an 'impact'! Salute! Peace out! 👍
Hello sir. thanks for all the good videos. you're for sure the rockstar of all driving teachers on YT. BTW, what software do you use to edit your videos and add visuals to them? I'm making some coffee related videos and struggling to find affordable ways to edit them myself.
Hey Jimbo! You're a star! I've my exam slated later this month at Macquarie Fields. I've got into this bad habit of driving with only one hand - especially when I'm turning. Would this be considered a fail in the test even if all the other criteria satisfy alright?
@@Alex-fh4my yeah i made a complaint , but i did my another test and got my liscence already , they only wanted me to give exit signal in double lane roundabouts not single, i did so and pass.
hey Jimbo. I passed my test fourth go at macquarie fields yesterday and I couldn't have done it without watching your videos. Thank you so much. While I walked out the service center I saw you also parked in a white car

Hey Jimbo! I go for my driving test on the 30th and just wanted to ask a question. My instructor says its okay to use the space where there is a solid white line and merge over to make a left turn... Is this a good practice or not, I am just doubting this maneuver for my test. Thanks!
You can move over a white edge line with 100m of a left turn. Hope you passed.
hey jimbo just wondering have you done a video of you doing the edmondson park route?
Not yet but it is long overdue for sure.
Hi jimbo i pass my test st mary's 2nd go. Thank you for your all the tips and definitely owe you the credit. again thank you so much
Congratulations mate on passing!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Great lessons, enjoyed your online lessons and passed my driving test! Keep good work up! Cheers!
Congratulations mate on passing !!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Hi Jimbo, just wondering if test instructors have a preference for letting the steering wheel self-straighten or if you straighten it yourself
It's best to let it self centre itself as you come out of the turn.
Hi Jimbo thanks for the videos, I just have a question on dividing lanes. Are you legally allowed to cross double/single unbroken lane when turning into a driveway? Thanks in advance
Yes you can.
Does that apply if you are holding up traffic behind you? Thanks@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424
@@watamarlone1169 I'm trying to understand how the cars behind affect you turning right into a driveway across unbroken lines. Can you add some more info ?
I have parked cars to the left of me, then I start holding up traffic behind wanting to go past me and head straight, while I can not find a safe gap to turn right into the drive way from oncoming traffic on the opposite side of the road because it is relatively busy. Is it safe and legal to hold up traffic while I wait for a safe gap?@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424
Hey this was great, since you’ve done the mac fields and Gregory hills mock test do you think you could do an Edmondson park mock test too.
I am planning to real soon. Just had a few issues come up that is delaying it.
Hey Jimbo just wondering due to the poor signage on particular roads (and being unfamiliar with the area) will i fail if i drive 45 on a 60km/h road?
Yes
With non residential you need to be within 20km of the limit. So technically on such roads 45km will not attract a fail but it will hold traffic up a bit and may cause them to dangerously go around you. If you can get familiar with the area then I think that helps.
Thank you for your videos! I passed first try with 104! Not sure what that means but I’ll take it!! Thanks again!
Congratulations mate on passing 1STGO!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Could you do Edmondson park driving test centre please 🙏
Great video. I have booked a test and have a car with a tinted window. Would that be an issue?
I think most people have tinted windows these days.
Hey Jim, Highly appreciate your work, thanks for making videos to help community in passing their driving test. I’ve got driving test tomorrow at Macquarie Field. Finger crossed hoping to pass in first go. Cheers mate 😉
how did you go?? did you end up going on the same route??, i have mine next week so just want to know thank you :))
@@sasithonnk yes I passed with full numbers 108/108. They either do 3 point turn or reverse park, 1 out of two. It was the exact same route!!
Hey Jimbo,
Many thanks for your videos, they have really helped me pass my test at the first go.
Congratulations Farhan on passing 1STGO!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Can you please tell me important parts of the test
Hey Jimbo, at age 32, I triumphed over my first driving test(Score:108 no Head Check mistakes and no Signaling mistakes), never having driven before! 🎉🎊 Your support made all the difference. Coffee's on me ☕️. Thanks a ton!
Congratulations mate on passing 1STGO!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching and thanks for the coffee ☕

Good work mate is it real route for DL in Macquarie field because I have a test.
It is a real route.

Hi Jimbo. Hoping you'll have one for Edmonson Park testing centre. Thank you so much!
Yes working on it this week.
@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 yaass! Thanks a lot. Im subscribing 🫶
Hey Jimbo, what time and day was this mock done?
About 1pm and a weekday. Can't remember which. It was school holidays.
I have my test on 28/11/24. Would it be possible to drive on the route with you?
Hey Jimbo just did a Macquarie Fields ps test on the 22nd just a heads up im 99% sure i got marked down for not signaling
in the test center car park but passed first go.
Was it on the bends? Or when you actually do a turn ? This would be important for me to know.
@3:20 were you told us not to signal got 108 points and 2 mark downs for not signaling i took the same pass @@thedrivingtestguynsw8424

@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 certainly I would, even if I don't come back to watch your videos (which I still would), your indomitable voice telling me the correct driving techniques will reverberate in my ears whenever I drive in the future.
Now, that's called an 'impact'!
Salute! Peace out! 👍
I have my test soon this month and fingers crossed please let me remember all the important bits and pass
Best of luck 🤞 Be good at traffic decisions and head checks.
Hey jimbo how can i book mock test with yoh, i want there in macquarie😇
What do you mean by exit signal ? When going straight through the roundabout
It is using the left signal (indicator/blinker) when you exit the roundabout going straight.
Hello sir. thanks for all the good videos. you're for sure the rockstar of all driving teachers on YT. BTW, what software do you use to edit your videos and add visuals to them? I'm making some coffee related videos and struggling to find affordable ways to edit them myself.
I use Adobe premiere elements (the cheap one). I also have Da Vinci resolve which I am learning.
Hey Jimbo! You're a star!
I've my exam slated later this month at Macquarie Fields. I've got into this bad habit of driving with only one hand - especially when I'm turning.
Would this be considered a fail in the test even if all the other criteria satisfy alright?
Yes if you do it alot. F8 fail.
At 12.16, roundabout Harold to Henderson , can we go directly into left lane?
Yes you could it doesn't have any solid divider line. Check over left shoulder before jumping to left lane.
Thanks alot
I have my test tmr morning at macquarie field , i am so nervous and binge watching your all videos 🥶
Best of luck 🤞
@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 i failed because they told me i gave exit signals on single lane roundabouts😓
@@rajubudhathoki4309 what? that doesn't sound right does it? did you push back on that decision at all?
@@Alex-fh4my yeah i made a complaint , but i did my another test and got my liscence already , they only wanted me to give exit signal in double lane roundabouts not single, i did so and pass.
@@rajubudhathoki4309 I see, interesting. Thanks for letting me know
Is this area in NSW ?
Yes

@@shireenmirani2229did you get the same route as per the video?
Which test centre is easier for the test, Macquarie or Gregory hills?
They both have their pros and cons. I reckon about equal.
hey Jimbo. I passed my test fourth go at macquarie fields yesterday and I couldn't have done it without watching your videos. Thank you so much. While I walked out the service center I saw you also parked in a white car
Yeah that was me 🙂 Congratulations on passing!!! Great work 👍 Thanks for watching 😃
