I find telling myself I'm excited rather than 'I'm nervous really helped. If I'm anxious, I see unknowns as threats, if I'm excited, I see unknowns as opportunities. It REALLY helped
Oh god my test is in 30 minutes, im so nervous. Hope this helps Update: YES I PASSED, THANK YOU SO MUCH Travis, your tips were very helpful, I remained calm the whole way through.

Hi Travis, I’m delighted to say I passed first time in Sunderland today with 1 minor. Can I just say this video helped me so much as my test was at 1pm and all morning I was panicking and my heart was racing. When I watched this video it put me at ease and when I got in the car with the examiner I just switched off and went into driving mode. By the time I was asked to turn into the test centre I was amazed by how fast the test went. Thank you again, you are a life saver!
Thanks so much James!Took my theory in August and have been watching your videos throughout my lessons.Took my test this morning and passed first time.I have a great instructor but your videos really helped me apply my knowledge! Thank you again!
Hi I had my driving test today at 10.14am. I couldn't sleep last night thinking about it. Then I had a 1 hour lesson before the test,i made a few mistakes which helped me because I kept saying to myself waiting in test centre do not make them mistakes again. during the test the examiner pointed to a road sign behind a tree as I looked I wasn't 100% sure it said 30mph,so I continued at 20mph that's where I picked up a minor fault for appropriate speed.i passed with 1 minor fault :).
My driving test is tomorrow! My anxiety is really bad I'm just hoping it doesn't mess with my chance of passing, I just have to remember to take my time and not rush. Thank you for these videos it does help!
Learn-to-drive Travis I passed! I couldn't believe it, I only had 6 car faults! These videos have been a big help outside of lessons and approaching the test! Thank you Travis 👍🏻
I failed my test today cos of nerves :| My leg was shaking and I stalled 4 times (twice in one place) in the duration of the test and the examiner failed me for that.. It sucks because the 2 hour lesson before it I didn't stall once!
@@theKATofficial2 who the hell are you to judge. Some people's instructors tell them to put in for the test too soon. Everyone will pass eventually if they keep at it. Did you pass the first time , of course you did ,you were born already knowing how to drive perfect right
Xavier Stewart i went on a roundabout on the outside lane when there was a car on the inside lane! 5th time I passed and would consider myself a safe driver. Hope you pass yours soon!!!!
My test is on Tuesday, I’m usually a good driver and do most things well. I’ve had two mock tests and once my instructor takes out the mock sheet I forget how to drive. 1st mock test I put the clutch in before breaking every time and coasted a lot, I never do that! The second one my gear changes were all over the place, they were so jerky and are usually so smooth. I thought I had a good chance at passing but now I’m so nervous and I think I’ll fail 😞
I have my test next week and I'm so nervous. I still have one more lesson tomorrow. The thing is that it costs so much and I don't want to let my family down
I'm getting so fed up of taking these tests 😭😭. It's a really traumatic experience and I have ended up I tears in 4 out of the 5 tests I've failed. They've all gone terrible. One of the tests I didn't get that upset as I thought I had passed but when I was told I had failed it's made me worse because I feel that I can't do any better than that and what am I going to do to get them to pass me. I've cried all day about my next test a few weeks away. I am at uni and need to be able to drive to get the job I want i can't give up or there would be no point in being at uni. Other wise I would of given up long ago. Any tips would be great I'll try anything I've been regularly getting upset about this my instructed and husband say I drive well. I don't drive well in tests! Thanks
really sorry to hear the trouble youve been having, this whole driving test thing really is a horrible process isnt it? I got mine tomorrow and am kinda shitting bricks as its my second attempt. hope things are going better for you lately
+Veersajan Singh this could be two things. Your seating position. You could be too far away from clutch pedal causing lack of control, or too close causing no control. The other thing could be you are driving on roads that are too busy for you at this moment. So try practice on quiet roads so to improve the control.

For the guys who are going for test: I HAVE FAILED TWO TIMES, and I was fed up I almost give up to go for test cause I thought I’m good driver especially when u have driving experience. But the truth it’s not about assessors or luck. JUST LEARN THE RULES FOLLOW THE RULES AND MOST IMPORTANTLY PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE, I have pumped the fuels more than two times and I showed 3rd time with me car after I got too many practice. And now successfully passed. My advice to the guys who are going to do exam. 1. Never ever Panic or Hesitate 2. Believe that your best driver in the wold and you are going to teach how to drive to assessors 3. Never ever speed up 4. Never ever competitive with experience driver 5. Just follow the rules 6. Don’t care about other drivers just be calm and slow and drive 7. PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE My best wishes to the guys who are going to do the exam. Remember if you fail never give up if pass never forget the mistakes that you have done . All the very best, I’m pretty sure that you will pass the test, all the success will come to you Practice well. God Bless You always. Driver safe!
Libby Protheroe if you are nervous don’t worry just have bubble gum or any sweets 🍬 and put some calm music or turn on some music that u like, assessors won’t say anything. And don’t worry it’s just matter of facing 1st time like facing job interview so don’t worry be bold and strong 💪 do it. All the very best dear, may god bless you!
@@mckenzie3721 you will pass, you will get license and DONT GET NERVOUS, nervous mean failure. Feel the confident that you have, believe yourself and PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE to get best of you. All the very best !
4th time, but this time I watched your videos first. I passed. Thank you thank you thank you James. Thank you to the examiner as well, and thank you to my instructor who was so patient with me. Neve3r give up hope folks. If I can pass, anybody can.
Learn-to-drive Travis bad news 😩😩 I’m honestly at the point of giving up because I’ve been getting only 2 -4 minors in my last 3 tests and 1 serious and always make a different mistake every time. Have you got any tips on what I should be focusing on until my next one and how I should prepare my self? Thanks
I failed my first test because of nervousness, got 4 serious, 1 overtaking a cyclist too close, 2 stopping on meeting,3 right side lane change,4 roundabout taking left from middle ( not using the cyclist lane basically) booked again for 13 June... I was tooo much nervous and my examinar was a really strict and rude guy,,, wish me luck
Thank you so much I watched your video 1 hour before the test took everything into consideration 😊 and I passed I am so happy All I can say is drive and don't give a fuck imagine your grand mother sitting and giving u directions 😘😂 you will be fine x
I just wanted to say thanks. I've passed my driving test today. first time with 1 minor. your videos have helped me loads while I've been learning to drive
I failed today, within the first 10 minutes, 2 serious faults getting to close to parked cars on the left. I was a bag of nerves. I have done numerous lessons and mocks without a single minor. The instructor when I asked him to repeat his direction snapped "can't you understand what I'm saying?" it threw me off, I already told him I was feeling nervous. It's my own fault. I watched this video last night and felt calm. Sometimes it just doesn't go your way. 2nd test booked and lessons for next week booked. To anyone reading this, relax, you will be your own worst enemy, you know you can drive, trust yourself, drive safe. God bless.
Driving test is in 2 days and I don't think I've ever felt this nervous in my life, do you think 8:20 am is a good time for the test? Any tips on how to deal with test at that time?
i have my test tomorrow and i KNOW i'm a good driver, i'm cautious and observant of everything around me. however, i get so nervous on every test i take, this will be my first time taking the drivers test tomorrow though and i'm so scared my anxiety will get the best of me
Got my fourth test on Tuesday! I always do well in my lessons but whenever I get into the car for the test, I get nervous and scared! Hopefully this time I will pass!
Just Passed My driving Test Today with 0 Minors Faults i am over the moon today Thank you so much your videos really helped me a lot .... Keep it up 👍🏼
James, I just wanted to thank you for the calm and level-headed advice. In the run -up to my driving test I was watching your drive test advice and I found it invaluable! Tuition from my fantastic driving instructor combined with your advice which I used prior and during the test resulted in a pass at the first attempt! Thanks a million!!!
Driving examiner chose two manoeuvres instead of just one and made me pull over many, many times - last one in a really, really tricky spot where she knew I would fail. I only had six minors and then she purposely pressed the breaks when I was about to press them myself. She failed me on purpose. I think she was biased because my driving instructor is black and I have a German accent. She looked at us funny from the start. Hope I will have a different examiner in my new test 4th of July ‘22.
This helped me so much! Passed first time with 4 minors yesterday! I suffer from really bad anxiety and was so nervous but the test isn’t as bad as it seems! I felt like I was going to failed and my driving wasn’t as good as normal but I was safe which is the main thing!
In my country u have to do the test with a policeman/woman , and the instructor has to sit in the back , it’s so stressful , u feel pressured by 2 people , I really hope I pass this time , it’s my 3rd test , Iam so sick of driving lessons I feel like iam wasting my time and money
I passed my test last week with a combination of a great instructor, watching you and watching a hypnotherapy session on here too for driving anxiety. Thanks so much :)
I had a pupil last year who was taking her test one week from full term. I told her she was not alone and her baby was there to help her along the way( she passed ). Good luck.
+Learn-to-drive Travis (Driving) failed! Got 17 minors, mainly influenced from driving too slowly! Nerves got the better of me! Rebooked for when I'm 39 weeks.
I took mine this morning and unfortunately I failed due to nerves and being sort of uncomfortable with the instructor next to me. hopefully the second time will be the charm!
Passed my test this afternoon! First time with only 2 minors. So pleased and these tips really helped! Good luck to everyone else for your tests😁you’ll be fine!
I failed my first test last week, tomorrow is the second try. I do SO well on my lessons. SO well. But as soon as that assessor got in the car i was so scared. I was crying all week.
O God the examinator was saying to me , "Go, go " i feel that he was so rude pushing me to do more and more mistakes .. he was not polite at all...and not give me the opportunity to put in park and brake by pulling on the left side he was saying "Go, ,go...i was nearly to tell him .. what about POM routine, how to go like a cow or what.. but i was quiet and professional, also his chair was so low and it was the time to do my parallel park i couldn't see the corner of the parked car to do my reference point ... 😢disaster..
I have severe anxiety, I watched this this morning and passed finally! No panic attack and I was on test for nearly an hour due to a road accident! You’re a miracle worker haha
I got my driving test in the next couple of weeks on the 1st December, so came over and watched this video. I’ll be updating the comment if I have passed or not.
Suffering apprehension before any test is commonplace, but is totally different to the sheer panic some are faced with, when they find themselves involved in emergency situations. That's where many lesser experienced drivers can quickly loose control of their vehicles. Many accidents caused typically by panicking, then over-braking and/or over-steering in a split second reaction, especially when you're travelling at motorway speeds. Advanced driver training courses can however prepare against some of the more adverse driving conditions we may hope never to experience, especially if you're the kind of person that believes your driving test was a stressful experience. Metal becomes very pliable at speed! This is my opinion, I could be wrong.
Any advice someone could give me. I'm petrified. I'm trying to think about all the nice things I can do once I have passed to try and spur myself on. But after having being driving for about a year I'm just fed up and can't believe how much it's costing me.
+Vogue Girl hi, ask yourself why you started. Was it to improve your job prospects? Was it to get about? Was it to travel around easier? Come up with a plan with your instructor. Plan: 1. What needs to improve on my driving? 2. How many hours more do I need to sort out number 1. 3. Are you ready to have a mock driving test? 4. What does your instructor think you will be ready to take the test?
So today I had my first driving test but only 2 minutes I quit and terminated the test cause my legs shaked so bad I pulled out junction when I shouldn’t and he had to use his brakes and I knew I had fail and I suffer anxiety and a full on attack started Anyone who suffers anxiety and the shakes please tips on calming the shakes I have booked straight back in But I’m so disappointed in myself “Walk back” is not a Pleasant experience at all
My test is in 4 hours and I'm pretrified by the thought of accidentally missing a playground zone sign and going too fast or something like that. Hopefully it goes well..

hi James just passed my test today first time thanks to your absolutely fantastic videos on how to keep your nerve and relax so just wanted to say a major thankyou
Hi Can I ask please why is it that the driving test are like very odd times for example mine was at 10:14 but why not at 10:15 or other times I’ve heard it to be 11:29 why not 11:30, just curious!!!!
The government organisation has had a time and motion study done on the DVSA. They work out that at 8am the examiner clocks in and will take 5 minutes to get themselves ready and a further 3 minutes to have the paperwork and be ready to walk out of the reception to meet the students at 8.08. Then the driving test takes in average 40 minutes, plus 5 minutes to go through the test results with students and hand out pass certificate. Then a further 5 minutes in test centre finishing off paperwork of the driving test. Then it all start again.
i failed heavy bus test 4th time and this month 24th September again i always take alot pressure someone asked me to get inderal tablet from doctor what u say sir?
@@JamesTravis on 2nd attempt i did eat that inderal and I dont have pressure at all when my test done i was 100% sure i m pass but i got fail test even i drive good 😢
Got my test tomorrow, I’m doing fine but I really struggle with nerves and trying not to get flustered and distracted if I’ve had a minor mishap. This video has really helped me to try and control my nerves, thank you 👍🤞

5. Just follow the rules

My best wishes to the guys who are going to do the exam. Remember if you fail never give up if pass never forget the mistakes that you have done . All the very best, I’m pretty sure that you will pass the test, all the success will come to you Practice well. God Bless You always. Driver safe!
great advice, I'm really nervous for my test:)
Libby Protheroe if you are nervous don’t worry just have bubble gum or any sweets 🍬 and put some calm music or turn on some music that u like, assessors won’t say anything. And don’t worry it’s just matter of facing 1st time like facing job interview so don’t worry be bold and strong 💪 do it. All the very best dear, may god bless you!
Thanks for the tips! I’m nervous for my test on Saturday! And I will pass! (Speaking it into existence)
@@mckenzie3721 you will pass, you will get license and DONT GET NERVOUS, nervous mean failure. Feel the confident that you have, believe yourself and PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE to get best of you. All the very best !

Naho Saenoki congratulations on passing. Safe driving
Aww that actually made me happy! I hav my 4th Test tommorow morning -hopefully good news! But I get really nervous when I go on my test
Good luck
Learn-to-drive Travis bad news 😩😩 I’m honestly at the point of giving up because I’ve been getting only 2 -4 minors in my last 3 tests and 1 serious and always make a different mistake every time. Have you got any tips on what I should be focusing on until my next one and how I should prepare my self? Thanks
Just try and keep it basic driving. Nothing fancy, no risk taking.
I failed my first test because of nervousness, got 4 serious, 1 overtaking a cyclist too close, 2 stopping on meeting,3 right side lane change,4 roundabout taking left from middle ( not using the cyclist lane basically) booked again for 13 June... I was tooo much nervous and my examinar was a really strict and rude guy,,, wish me luck
Thank you so much I watched your video 1 hour before the test took everything into consideration 😊 and I passed I am so happy
All I can say is drive and don't give a fuck imagine your grand mother sitting and giving u directions 😘😂 you will be fine x
Lulu A congratulations on passing. Safe driving
I just wanted to say thanks. I've passed my driving test today. first time with 1 minor. your videos have helped me loads while I've been learning to drive
That's great news on passing your test. I am happy the videos helped you. Safe driving.
Got my driving test in 2 hours and I'm feeling the nerves now 😫
Rachel Shearman good luck

+Eee congratulations on passing and thank you for watching
So basically,
eat/water, practise, mocks, practise (in the area), forgets mistakes
Hi I just pass my test first time with 3minor your video very nice learn lot from u thanks🙏🏻😀😀😀
Rocky Dhanj congratulations on passing. Safe driving
I failed today, within the first 10 minutes, 2 serious faults getting to close to parked cars on the left. I was a bag of nerves. I have done numerous lessons and mocks without a single minor. The instructor when I asked him to repeat his direction snapped "can't you understand what I'm saying?" it threw me off, I already told him I was feeling nervous. It's my own fault. I watched this video last night and felt calm. Sometimes it just doesn't go your way. 2nd test booked and lessons for next week booked. To anyone reading this, relax, you will be your own worst enemy, you know you can drive, trust yourself, drive safe. God bless.
Sorry to hear about your driving test
Good luck for your next test!
Driving test is in 2 days and I don't think I've ever felt this nervous in my life, do you think 8:20 am is a good time for the test? Any tips on how to deal with test at that time?
i have my test tomorrow and i KNOW i'm a good driver, i'm cautious and observant of everything around me. however, i get so nervous on every test i take, this will be my first time taking the drivers test tomorrow though and i'm so scared my anxiety will get the best of me
+Shelly Lerman good luck
bunnybrainzxo Howd yours go? Mines tomorrow 😭
Daniel Mikhail how did yours go mines tomorrow
@bunnybrainzxo you do realise she commented 3 years ago right
bunnybrainzxo lmao heyyyy
Got my fourth test on Tuesday! I always do well in my lessons but whenever I get into the car for the test, I get nervous and scared! Hopefully this time I will pass!
Most people are same. Good luck
4 times ? are you blind ?
Just Passed My driving Test Today with 0 Minors Faults i am over the moon today Thank you so much your videos really helped me a lot .... Keep it up 👍🏼
Any advise you could give me? How do people pass with no minors? It's impossible
Vogue Girl probably had a great examiner
James, I just wanted to thank you for the calm and level-headed advice. In the run -up to my driving test I was watching your drive test advice and I found it invaluable! Tuition from my fantastic driving instructor combined with your advice which I used prior and during the test resulted in a pass at the first attempt! Thanks a million!!!
Congratulations on passing your driving test and thank you for your kind comments. Safe driving.
Driving examiner chose two manoeuvres instead of just one and made me pull over many, many times - last one in a really, really tricky spot where she knew I would fail. I only had six minors and then she purposely pressed the breaks when I was about to press them myself. She failed me on purpose. I think she was biased because my driving instructor is black and I have a German accent. She looked at us funny from the start. Hope I will have a different examiner in my new test 4th of July ‘22.
Passed my driving test first time this morning with 3 minors. Thank you so much for your videos. They helped me so much!
Congratulations
Litterally have my test tomorrow, omg 😯😯😯
Good luck
@@JamesTravis I passed !!!! 3 minors 😁
This helped me so much! Passed first time with 4 minors yesterday! I suffer from really bad anxiety and was so nervous but the test isn’t as bad as it seems! I felt like I was going to failed and my driving wasn’t as good as normal but I was safe which is the main thing!
Congratulations on passing
Learn-to-drive Travis thankyou!😁
In my country u have to do the test with a policeman/woman , and the instructor has to sit in the back , it’s so stressful , u feel pressured by 2 people , I really hope I pass this time , it’s my 3rd test , Iam so sick of driving lessons I feel like iam wasting my time and money
Update : I passed today 😭😭 thank god i am so thankful
Congratulations
I passed my test last week with a combination of a great instructor, watching you and watching a hypnotherapy session on here too for driving anxiety. Thanks so much :)
Congratulations on passing and thank you for watching
So so nervous, I've got my test later this week and I'm 34 weeks pregnant! No pressure!
I had a pupil last year who was taking her test one week from full term. I told her she was not alone and her baby was there to help her along the way( she passed ). Good luck.
+Learn-to-drive Travis (Driving) failed! Got 17 minors, mainly influenced from driving too slowly! Nerves got the better of me! Rebooked for when I'm 39 weeks.
Sorry to hear. I hope your next test is a pass. Good luck.
Did you pass Katie? Please I hope it’s good news
Passed my driving test today first time with 4 minors! Thank you very much for all your help through your videos!
+Joseph Binmore congratulations on passing
I got my test tomorrow at 9! thank you for this video :) hopefully I’ll pass
Good luck
I took mine this morning and unfortunately I failed due to nerves and being sort of uncomfortable with the instructor next to me. hopefully the second time will be the charm!
Sorry to hear. Lots of people fail at the first attempt. You learn a lot from this experience. Good luck on your next.
Passed my test this afternoon! First time with only 2 minors. So pleased and these tips really helped! Good luck to everyone else for your tests😁you’ll be fine!
Congratulations on passing and safe driving
I failed my first test last week, tomorrow is the second try. I do SO well on my lessons. SO well. But as soon as that assessor got in the car i was so scared. I was crying all week.
Second time round and you know what to expect this time.
Good luck
@@JamesTravis i know i can do it, i am capable >:) ill let you know how i go.
Good luck
@@RatMaster01 how’d it go?
@@sweetdreams6071 i passed the seccond test
About to take my second test this morning! hopefully I will come back with good news
Good luck
O God the examinator was saying to me , "Go, go " i feel that he was so rude pushing me to do more and more mistakes .. he was not polite at all...and not give me the opportunity to put in park and brake by pulling on the left side he was saying "Go, ,go...i was nearly to tell him .. what about POM routine, how to go like a cow or what.. but i was quiet and professional, also his chair was so low and it was the time to do my parallel park i couldn't see the corner of the parked car to do my reference point ... 😢disaster..
Sorry to hear
I have severe anxiety, I watched this this morning and passed finally! No panic attack and I was on test for nearly an hour due to a road accident! You’re a miracle worker haha
Thank you for your kind comment. Congratulations on passing and safe driving
I got my driving test in the next couple of weeks on the 1st December, so came over and watched this video. I’ll be updating the comment if I have passed or not.
Good luck
My incentive for learning to drive is my job as a community nurse so hopefully will pass and driving by January.
That’s a great incentive. Good luck on the test.
I take my test in 30 minutes😬🥶🥵😭🤗
Good luck
Learn-to-drive Travis thanks I passed🤗🤗🤗🤗💕💕I’m so happy
Excellent result.
I have mine tomorrow wish me luck! the first time i didn't passed cause of my nerves!
Good luck
@@JamesTravis i passed thanks!😌 You helped a lot!
Congratulations on passing. If you get time checkout my playlist called First year after passing
Suffering apprehension before any test is commonplace, but is totally different to the sheer panic some are faced with, when they find themselves involved in emergency situations. That's where many lesser experienced drivers can quickly loose control of their vehicles. Many accidents caused typically by panicking, then over-braking and/or over-steering in a split second reaction, especially when you're travelling at motorway speeds. Advanced driver training courses can however prepare against some of the more adverse driving conditions we may hope never to experience, especially if you're the kind of person that believes your driving test was a stressful experience.
Metal becomes very pliable at speed!
This is my opinion, I could be wrong.
Any advice someone could give me. I'm petrified. I'm trying to think about all the nice things I can do once I have passed to try and spur myself on. But after having being driving for about a year I'm just fed up and can't believe how much it's costing me.
+Vogue Girl hi, ask yourself why you started. Was it to improve your job prospects? Was it to get about? Was it to travel around easier?
Come up with a plan with your instructor.
Plan:
1. What needs to improve on my driving?
2. How many hours more do I need to sort out number 1.
3. Are you ready to have a mock driving test?
4. What does your instructor think you will be ready to take the test?
I think it was so I didn't have to use public transport anymore. I hate catching the bus and having to do it in all weathers.
My instructor wore a high viz vest in mock test and that helped my crippling nerves
That’s interesting
So today I had my first driving test but only 2 minutes I quit and terminated the test cause my legs shaked so bad I pulled out junction when I shouldn’t and he had to use his brakes and I knew I had fail and I suffer anxiety and a full on attack started
Anyone who suffers anxiety and the shakes please tips on calming the shakes
I have booked straight back in
But I’m so disappointed in myself
“Walk back” is not a Pleasant experience at all
Hi Amy, sorry to hear. Try watching this video, it could help.
ruclips.net/video/m784_RlJ1pw/видео.html
My test is in 4 hours and I'm pretrified by the thought of accidentally missing a playground zone sign and going too fast or something like that. Hopefully it goes well..
Good luck
@@JamesTravis Thanks! I just finished it and passed 😁. This video definitely helped.
Excellent result. Well done. Safe driving
Had the worst nerves ever today, and passed 7th time lucky!!
So never doubt yourself guys 😆

hi James just passed my test today first time thanks to your absolutely fantastic videos on how to keep your nerve and relax so just wanted to say a major thankyou
Good advice the first time I went to take my test I was literally shaking as a result I flunked lol
should I get some prescription drugs? I tend to make mistakes on lessons cus of my panic..
You can buy karms, which is just a herbal, and helps some people.
Hi
Can I ask please why is it that the driving test are like very odd times for example mine was at 10:14 but why not at 10:15 or other times I’ve heard it to be 11:29 why not 11:30, just curious!!!!
The government organisation has had a time and motion study done on the DVSA.
They work out that at 8am the examiner clocks in and will take 5 minutes to get themselves ready and a further 3 minutes to have the paperwork and be ready to walk out of the reception to meet the students at 8.08. Then the driving test takes in average 40 minutes, plus 5 minutes to go through the test results with students and hand out pass certificate.
Then a further 5 minutes in test centre finishing off paperwork of the driving test. Then it all start again.
@@JamesTravis
Thank you
I have my third test July 5th I'm nervous but last time I only missed my license by one mistake...I was driving too carefully because I was nervous.
+Karaniah Rolli good luck on your next one
Learn-to-drive Travis Thanks!!!
Today I failed because I was too careful. I'm currently crying & it happened about 11hrs ago 😭

Ellie Cass thank you and safe driving

Ellie Cass congratulations on passing
How the hell do people pass with so little minors. I feel like there are so many things to think about.
Vogue Girl When you think too much it affects your driving ,be calm
i failed heavy bus test 4th time and this month 24th September again i always take alot pressure someone asked me to get inderal tablet from doctor what u say sir?
If you do contact your doctor. Then try the medication before your test to see how you react
@@JamesTravis on 2nd attempt i did eat that inderal and I dont have pressure at all when my test done i was 100% sure i m pass but i got fail test even i drive good 😢
Got my test tomorrow, I’m doing fine but I really struggle with nerves and trying not to get flustered and distracted if I’ve had a minor mishap. This video has really helped me to try and control my nerves, thank you 👍🤞
Good luck and stay focused on your own driving.
