just out of curiosity and for a friendly debate, in your honest opinion, if you were to start from the begining such as do your theory test, hazard perception and driving test, would you pass?
heres a link to the theory test (hazard not included):
That aint your result Trem... Thats saying out of 50 questions you did, you answered 50 of then

I done this test a while back - got 47 I think, my other half got 46 and my mum got 43 - my dad failed although he didnt take too kindly to that when i mocked him and said my mum should drive from now on!
Its good as it is an eye opener for some people and makes them think a bit!
48 - 50 not a bad effort really. most are common sense really. i find the ones that are a little harder are the what to do in an accident type questions.
didn't need to do the hazard perception when i took my test but me dads a driving instructor and he did one online and failed because he was judging things to be hazards before they became hazards so got marked down for that. i think they have toughened up the practical test in the last few years, wouldn't fancy having to do that again, picked up some bad habits over the years....

Not surprising - you also have to have held a full license for 3 years, which you can't get when you're 15

I got the question about level crossings wrong (first warning of an approaching train is a steady amber light; I thought it was flashing twin red lights)
I also got the trailer on a motorway question wrong (I thought it was 50 MPH but it's 60)
And I got the question about hand signals for turning left wrong (can anyone tell me if they've ever actually used hand signals in a car?)

Once, when the right hand lights of the Ford Orion were broken. Had to put the hand out to indicate right.
Luckily it was summer and I scrapped it before the winter.
Never ever ever buy a Ford.
