Default How-many attempts did it take you to pass your theory?

Wasn't quite so rocky on my second test and passed that one

Interesting

True no theory test back in the day- just a few random questions that HAD to be answered correctly ..

I passed first time but my experience was the opposite to yours !

I was told to put the car in the opposite position/direction and I knew that meant doing a 3 point turn !!

Anyways I was driving my instructor’s HUGE car .. something like a Vauxhall Victor with a huge bonnet and it was a very narrow street .
I took my time and did it in FIVE turns and immediately presumed that I had failed … and relaxed only to be told that I had passed afterwards !


Oh and I had a practice lesson immediately before the test and reversed into a side street and drove into some bins !!

My instructor was a huge guy who chain smoked all through my lessons
