why learners fail their driving test
If you wait until your instructor says you are ready for the practical test, you have a much higher chance of passing. Your driving instructor will have the experience, knowledge and training to teach you properly and ensure that you are ready. The rule of thumb is, if you are not getting it consistently right with your instructor, you are not ready to take the test.
Listed below are the top ten reasons why candidates fail:
Observations at junctions
Ineffective observations and poor judgement.
Moving away safely
Ineffective observations.
Reverse Parking
Ineffective observations and a lack of accuracy.
