Currently binging driving test videos for reassurance etc before my test. 🤣😭 congrats on passing!! Praying for that outcome 🫶🏻
Best of luck!!! You got this and remember you are well able to drive 💪🏼💜
This video is very motivational. Thank you, resume driving lessons again, and like you I stopped for 3mos after 12. I hope to pass my driving test soon.
Love this! 🙌🏼 I'll be sure to watch it again when I'm doing mine! Ive my theory test in June, which was the closest availability since it's been closed since december 🙃
Thank you 😁 oh stop I’d say the wait times are awful atm but at least you have a date to get everything started 🙌🏼
Thanks so much for the tips I watched your video this morning and passed my test today ❤️
Omg yay so glad you found this helpful well done!!!
Hi Niamh. I passed my driving test today (second attempt). Thanks so much for your tips and advice. Stay safe in Canada.
Congrats well done I’m delighted for you!! Thanks so much
I pretended the tester was Google maps.
Its took me 3 years to eventually passed my test on Friday first time. I feel relax and a big pressure left off me.
Me mate failed his theory because he got a few tractor questions. PREPARE FOR THE TRACTOR QUESTIONS!
have my test next Wednesday and the nerves are kicking in .... booked a few pre-tests and been trying to find someone who knows about it so your video helped so much:)))))
Best of luck!!! You got this 🙌🏼
How did you get on??
Thank you soo much this is really helpful
Aw thank you I’m delighted to hear!!
thanks for the tips. Just failed my test last week and i have booked another test but i am on the waiting list. I have been driving on and off for 5 years now, was always so scared to drive. Now I feel confident and ready. I failed my test in the last few minutes when I made a mistake following the road and then got so nervous and made a series of mistakes.
Going now for mine,
@@mystuff41 all the best
Just do it to the best of your ability I'm a skilled driver I failed twice now I've been driving for a year now and I still failed twice not even gonna give it much though
Great info :) congratulations
Just passed my test! Thank so much for the tips 🙏 😊
Yay I’m delighted for you well done!!!
@@NiamhCogan thank you! The tips u gave in your video were so valuable and came in really handy during my test. Delighted I found this video and your channel. wishing u the best of luck with whatever ur pursuing!🤝😊
Thanks for your tips I have mine on the 9th of Feb, my 1st one but driving 3 years now. Gonna have to go in knowing I'm a good driver 😌
Best of luck!!!! Yes go in so confident and it will definitely help you ☺️
I have mine on the 8th ahhh
@@NiamhCogan I went in a bit too confident. I got a grade 3 for not realising my speed in built up area... the tester said my test actually did go well, my maneuver, positioning, progress and observation where all good... at the end she said there really wasn't much to brush up on or change but I needed to be more aware of my speed 🙃 I don't live near any built up areas etc and It was never a problem during the lessons either so my instructor was shocked but I've the next one booked so hopefully in 6 weeks I'll get it the second go.
@@niamhorourke94 did you get a second test
@@VanessaKM yes I failed my test on 9th and passed on 15th of March.
It's very fast for me... It's only for Irish people. I'm trying to say about your English. But I don't give up! I'll watch all your videos. Do some podcast please about your car. About your dashboard and all parts of car what we need to know for test. Thanks and keep going!
Thank you so much very helpful ☺
Aw yay so glad to hear!!
This is so helpful, thank you so much!! I got two lessons done before lockdown started haha, so this video has me so motivated to get back into it when lockdown ends, if it ever does hahaha xx
Oh yay I’m glad you found it helpful!! Definitely do get back into it and you’ll absolutely fly it 🙌🏼 x
@@NiamhCogan Thank you so so much 🥰
i got my permit in december of 2021 and i didnt really start driving until feburaury 2022, after that i took a long break because i couldnt drive at traffic lights. but now i can drive on 5th gear and ive been on the motorway. I start my lessons on the 1st of June so im hoping to pass maybe a couple of months after i turn 18
Great tips
Passed car & motorbike test first time. I did pre tests on both. Oh & know the rules of the road & roadsigns etc.
I have mine on the 5th of May, I'll update! Thanks for the tips btw!
Best of luck with it!!!
I failed lmao, but I have to put it off until the summer cuz of the lc
@@andreeadumitrescu2912 How long did you wait for a driving test? I am 4 weeks already on waiting list and they still haven't contacted me
@@ciemny9410 i was waiting about a month, so you should get yours soon hopefully!
@@andreeadumitrescu2912 Thanks! I just wasn't sure how long is the average waiting time
I did a lesson and dropped my licence on floor- it was between his legs- wearing shorts lol I was puce!
Thanks Niamh :)
No problem hope it was helpful!!
Would you have any tips for driving around Skibbereen and also what theory questions was you asked.
What about the 'failing system'? We see ppl failing because did something and then failing because didn't do the exactly same thing?
For example..my wife failed because she overtake a bus (stopped at a bus stop) in a 2 lane road. She pass on the right lane, same way.
Other thing was that she 'looked too much to the mirrors while driving'.
She has a full license from other country for 20 years.
the way the test is graded is completely backwards, half of doing the test is just learning how they want you to drive rather than how you will actually drive once you pass
When I failed my first test, I got so mad I stuck the fail sheet to my bedroom wall so everyday I remind myself to never let that happen again
Thank you ❤
U cannot fail if u hit the kerb it depends if u mount the kerb u will fail.
Failed my first time. Got like 17 faults haha. I tend to turn too wide on sharp corners and my coasting is bad too. I’ve been driving for a year on the provisional anyway, waited 8 months for a test so picked up bad habits, it’s a joke.
i have my test in an hour 💀
Well? How did it go?!
@@conormooney1031 failed it
@@bobduncan8300 rip
just to let ye know if ya fail the theory questions its only one mark u loose therefore u wont fail the test
Pretty sure you cannot fail on the theory, you get a grade 2 mark maximum. An unnecessary grade 2, obviously.
I just passed my test in Limerick 🎉
Yeah but like, do you have to read that whole book?. I've done all my lessons, i'll have my test in 3 weeks, I've been out loads in my dads car, wrote down a bunch of road signs and learning some rules. I'll bet most drivers wouldn't know the rules of the road off by heart, y'know?
Do you have any tips for doing your theory text im so nervous im revising now and will be booking it soon
I just kept doing practice tests!! Over and over and over 😂
let's see if this video works
My test just got cancelled on the day
The theory and practical driving tests are separate rather than on the same day in Britain, interesting to know they’re on the same day in Ireland. Which system does Northern Ireland use?
They are separate tests in Ireland too. There are just a few questions at the start of the driving test on road signs etc
@@bobbob9211 I see. They ask you a ‘show me tell me’ question about your car at the start instead here.
POV: your driving test is supposed to be in july but youre already watching videos about tips and how to pass your driving test
You can never been too prepared for your driving test 😂
Very easy I pass my theory test in 11 min
I’ve my driving test on the 25th, I’ll update on whether I passed or failed
I failed in the last 10 mins
Did u have to do ur theory test again when ur learners permit ran out ? Or just renew it
No you don’t! I think you can renew your license a second time no problem, but after that you need proof that you have applied for a driving test 😊
Have my on Wednesday 🥺
Best of luck with it!!! 💜
Someone can help me please? Do I have to go with an instructor at the day of the exam or can I go with someone that have full license at least 2 years?
You can go with either
