  • In this video Nikki does a restricted driving test around Highbrook 🚙 Nikki learnt how to drive from her husband and has never done lessons with a driving instructor but she has attempted the restricted test once before around New Lynn, Auckland, New Zealand.
    How do you think Nikki will do today? 🤷🏽‍♂️

    Thank You so much for this video.. I got my restricted three weeks ago and honestly watching this video helped alot. For anyone going for their restricted stay calm and focused dont let the nervs take over! And if you didn't get the results you wanted then its okay, take it as a learning curve and come back stronger. All the best!!

    When turning Right into Harris from a side street, what happens if you can't get all the way across the road. Are you allowed to cross into the median strip ?. Then wait there until its free to move into the lane ?

    • @SocialDrivingAcademy

    What happens if you miss a turn where they say you should turn there? Like for example if they say turn into Mellow street but you didn't see the street sign and go past it, do you get deducted points or do you fail?

      nah, not if u do it once, but depending on the testing officer u might get critical if you keep on missing directions.

      Hi AngelGhost, i agree with the comment below. If it's a one off then the Testing Officer is likely to just get you back on the track however if you are continuously missing turns then that would be a problem.

      Update: Yes, I did. I took the test last May 3rd. Having failed my first attempt, it took me a while to muster the courage to take on a second attempt. Plus Covid happened again so it got delayed and so on and so forth. But before my test, I watched my video as well as the other coaching videos of Muneeb and it did help a lot reviewing my common mistakes. Best advice i could give would be, relax and don't overthink it.

    No she is not doing headchecks and always looking to the gear when she is changing ( that's a NO NO).. To early indication ( more than three seconds). The instructor doesn't know the way and he is busy to check the road in his device!!!

    • @SocialDrivingAcademy
      @SocialDrivingAcademy  Před 2 lety +6

      Thanks for the feedback, Maya.
      Not doing headchecks is an issue. Infact one of the top three reasons people fail their tests.
      It's an automatic vehicle, the only time she'd need to look at the gears is when changing at a stopped position which is acceptable.
      Indicating too early isn't a critical error but can be problematic depending on the situation.
      The device is for recording notes not for directions. :)
