Passed my test on the fourth attempt yesterday. I get anxious easily in test conditions but I learned something crucial with every fail. Can't recommend Dan's videos enough to help with the trickier parts like corner reversal, signs and roundabouts. I know it feels after the first two fails like it's never going to happen but keep trying!
Thank you for your support and congratulations on passing your test, as you explained - a fail is only a moment in time and should always be seen as part of the journey, not the end of the journey.
Hi I just wanted to say I passed my driving test about 2 weeks ago now and I genuinely think it’s because of your AMAZING videos!! I think I watched them ALL coming up to my test!! You have thought me so many things, even certain things my own driving instructor didn’t teach me! So thank you so much I am very grateful your channel exists! 😭😭❤️❤️
Passed my test today second time with no faults after watching all ur videos . My first one I got 16 grade 2 and today 0 I really appreciate time u put on this videos thanks a lot Dane
I only found Dane's channel two nights before my driving test but it really helped me in preparation for my test. Dane has a video for any driving question or concern you might have and explains it all brilliantly! Great work Dane!!
Passed my driving test today in Galway Dane, your clear, concise and informative videos were a huge help in this success, thanks a mill I appreciate the work you do 👍
I’ve just passed my test and I want to thank you for all you do to help learner drivers become competent, confident and safe drivers. I watched many of your videos in the months coming up to the test and they helped immensely.
Just passed my test today first time in Dublin, your videos were a huge help! Especially for reversing around the corner and the theory, I can't thank you enough!! Good luck everyone else, you'll get there!
Hello sir, I passed my automatic driving test today, in my first attempt. I wanted to thank you for all the useful videos you made, mainly for mirror observation, reversing around the kerb. The theory questions also helped a lot.
Hi Dane, Thank you for the informative video. I have my test scheduled on 2nd August in kilrush. your video really helped me mentally prepare . I was having anxiety about the test but now I'm a bit more calm. Thanks amil.
Passed my test first go today thanks to my instructor who also reccomended your amazing videos!!! My nerves were absolutely gone and I was shaking going in to it. Luckily I had a nice tester who was nice to calm my nerves. Thank you Dane!!!!
Glad to hear that you found the videos useful and I'm pleased to hear that you were pointed that way by your driving instructor 😀. Congratulations on your great news.
Passed 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼 I have been following you regularly You are the best instructor And the way you teach is amazing Thanks a mill for making these videos.
I failed the test in the same spot today. It was on overtaking, there was a truck parked on the left side just after that orange road works sign, I checked my mirrors and indicated to go around it, and as I eased slightly into the right lane to get around a car appeared behind me and beeped. That was my serious.
Terrible they would give him a mark for his phone blocking private numbers, I'm shocked about ,, I have my test Friday, very nervous, hopefully I'm not sending you my test dane , thanks for your videos 👍
Hi Dane, do you have any videos on 3 laned roundabouts? Doing my test in 3 weeks time and there are 2 or 3 big 3 lane roundabouts near the test centre. I'm so nervous about these roundabouts 😓 I will do some pretests to practice them but your way of explaining things is great to watch in-between driving!
I really have to observe on what I'm doing behind the wheel. And to keep an eye out on what will happen? And I only answer my phone when I stop in a safe place to.
I've the EDTs completed and am getting a bit of practice in. I've been invited to select a date for a test but tbh I still don't feel ready. RSA have said you're not under obligation to accept the invite and will be put back on the waiting list. I'm in north Dublin and am wondering would this entail a long wait. I know the goalposts are changing with the increasing covid numbers but also with new centres opening and more instructors employed.
It's hard to say specifically but it could be between 8 and 12 weeks, if you don't feel ready then it's good to wait. Try and use the extra time to get professional driving lessons from a proper driving instructor who will be able to point you in the right direction.
@@DaneTygheletsdrive cheers. Although I'm fairly competent I have a fair bit of practice still to do and need to brush up on theory etc. I don't want to rush it and fail, thinking I can pass on the "off chance".
Hi Dane, I am struggling in terms of turning sharp corners and driving around a green area in my estate that is circle shaped. What I am struggling with is that I am usually driving in second gear but when I am progressively braking my car starts to rumble a little so then I press the clutch which brings it to such a speed I have basically stopped. Should I be driving in first gear here even though in the green area I would need to go straight back into second gear or should I be pressing the clutch down in this corner and gently bringing it to the bite in second gear to speed up in these corners while having my foot on the brake if I need to stop or slow down. I hope this question makes sense to you, Thanks Dane your videos are very helpful
It probably seems like a good idea for you to drive in 1st gear and keep the speed slower. Perhaps there are points where you could get to 2nd gear if it's downhill. This is why it's usually better to be driving in a petrol car.
I got 4 fails on the straight and on the roundabout, my placement is on the left side of the lane while going straight and I'm not sure what I done wrong on the roundabout any advice?
I’ve seen cases of people passing their test the first time but were not marked as hard as people to done their test under a different tester and test centre.
That's not exactly the scoop of the century. All my life as a driving instructor I've been amazed and puzzled by the lack of consistency among testers.
Sometimes a learner can be unlucky or perhaps the tester was a bit harsh but generally there's no smoke without fire. Try not to focus on the alleged injustice, concentrate more on how you can learn from the experience and improve next time.

Good Luck!

Thanks for the support and congratulations on passing your test.
@@DaneTygheletsdrive how many grade 1and grade 2 mistake can you make and pass ?
Grade 1 marks don't really matter, try to keep the grade 2 mistakes below 8 and you have a chance.
Tks to your videos I passed my test this week. 🙌🏻 second attempt!
Well done on passing this week, great news!
Your videos are very motivating, helping you pass the exam.I passed yesterday.Big thank you...
You're very welcome, best wishes
Thanks Dane for all those efforts
Finally passed today
Thanks

Thanks Dane great
That's why they call me the Great Dane
Terrible they would give him a mark for his phone blocking private numbers, I'm shocked about ,, I have my test Friday, very nervous, hopefully I'm not sending you my test dane , thanks for your videos 👍
I don't think he got a mark for blocking numbers, apparently it was for not switching off the Bluetooth. Best of luck with your test on Friday.
@@DaneTygheletsdrive aww cool, il remember that so, thanks very much ,
Best wishes
Is 1030am good time for test? Thanks
Think so
It's not the worst, let's put it that way.
Hi Dane, do you have any videos on 3 laned roundabouts? Doing my test in 3 weeks time and there are 2 or 3 big 3 lane roundabouts near the test centre. I'm so nervous about these roundabouts 😓 I will do some pretests to practice them but your way of explaining things is great to watch in-between driving!
I don't have any on 3 Lane roundabouts specifically but I certainly hope to do it soon.
@@DaneTygheletsdrive would love videos on 3 lane roundabouts too.
Someday
I really have to observe on what I'm doing behind the wheel. And to keep an eye out on what will happen? And I only answer my phone when I stop in a safe place to.

@@DaneTygheletsdrive ok perfect thanks Dane, really appreciate it. Lastly, I am driving a petrol car, what difference does that make?
Petrol cars are usually more suited to driving in town so that's a good thing. Try not to worry about it too much and take each road one at a time.
are you allowed to dry steer on the turnabout at all? I've heard varying opinions
Yes but it's not ideal
Doing mine in Dundalk on Tuesday. I’m from Drogheda but they shut our test centre indefinitely so I have to go up to Dundalk to do it😢
How'd it go?
I got 4 fails on the straight and on the roundabout, my placement is on the left side of the lane while going straight and I'm not sure what I done wrong on the roundabout any advice?
Get lessons
I'm from dundalk and 1 lesson away from being eligible for the test. I'd like to thank you for these feedbacks! I'm hoping to pass the 1st time
Best of luck with your driving 🍀

That's not exactly the scoop of the century. All my life as a driving instructor I've been amazed and puzzled by the lack of consistency among testers.
Failed my test yesterday with 16grade 2s but felt like I was unfairly judged and didn’t deserve half the grade 2s I receivedz
Sometimes a learner can be unlucky or perhaps the tester was a bit harsh but generally there's no smoke without fire. Try not to focus on the alleged injustice, concentrate more on how you can learn from the experience and improve next time.
Just started doing my lessons in Dundalk 👀
Good luck 🍀
Any recommendations for insurance for a learner driver on my mum’s car?
It will depend on your Ma's insurance provider but try First Ireland.
@@DaneTygheletsdrive her insurance is RSA
Call them and find out, I'm no expert on car insurance so all you can do is shop around.
How can i book my theory test

Thank you so much I watched all your videos just yesterday and I passed today. ♥️
Glad to be able to help point you in the right direction 😊
What confused the person doing the test when it came too a larger pedestrianised road sign without a time table
Could i get your email so I can send you my fail sheet you might be able to help me in understanding what I got the faults for.
