Failed CA behind the wheel test - Page 5

No probs. Take it from me, speed limits need to be your friend come examination day.

Drive like Miss Daisy would drive come test day. I got into Test Mode 36 hrs before the exam and started looking over my shoulder, two hand driving, etc. I have a rear-view camera and stop relying on it, started to look over my shoulders when I backed up.

I passed it the first time going at it. I reviewed some YouTube videos and practice all the moves, I had never parallel parked before in my life and tried it once, and did it like a BOSS, first time the day before the test.

#1 reason fail their first time is because they get nervous and do stuff they would not do when they drive.

Thanks great info. I read the CA handbook but in still nervous. Good luck

Round 2. At the DMV sitting in my car in line for almost 2 hrs to retake the driving test... in 81 degrees F heat outside. I better pass this time because this sucks.

Good luck!

Thanks man! I ended up passing

Yay! Happy ending. You are now a licensed Californian. Awesome feeling right?

I have mine in Wednesday and I'm somewhat nervous but I will try to not have that take over. Been driving for 5 years but like everyone that's been driving a while we had our habits that may not be suitable for driving test. I always look over my shoulder though so I guess that's a start. Hopefully I pass on the first try, I have class right after the test and it would be the best feeling ever to drive directly to school officially licensed.

Congratulations!

Yeah, feels pretty legit to drive now. Got my CA ID in the mail yesterday too and it is something else to see my picture and info on it. Been a long time coming You'll know when you get yours

Yeah, don't get nervous. Just relax. It's not unlike driving like you already do, just have to add a lot more caution that is all. Wish you much luck!!

Thank you! Going to celebrate tonight Not going to drive of course! With a license comes great responsibility
