Default Failed my test

one of the most frustrating days i have ever had, failed on the test for driving in a 60 at 30 for 2 mins then up to 60 after realising - just missed the national speed limit sign and realised to late. Really annoying failing on such a stupid thing especially now i will have to wait about a month for another test day, and i have a sv parked in my garage that i cant ride

what i would pay for a time machine to go back a few hours

Ahhh sorry to hear about that, but all the best riders pass the 2nd time around.

Anyway, it's only going to rain for the next 4 weeks

Good luck next time and keep ya eyes peeled for nasty road signs, could have been a severe bend warning sign you missed, maybe a good lesson learnt

Unlucky The best of us have done it before though. I failed my first test riding really well. I passed my second riding like an idiot. The amount luck has to play in it is bonkers. Good luck with the next one!

Actually, the best ones pass on 3rd.

You just have to keep on trying.

Sorry to hear it mate. I am sure you'll fly though it next time.

Have you re-booked your test?

cant book it until tomorrow, wish i had some private land to rind my bike on - i feel so tortured with the bike sitting there

i will try re book it for as soon as possible but i think its going to be a good wait atleast a month by the sound of things - wish i would have failed it in the U turn or something harder, following the speed limit is not really hard <--- self proclaimed idiot

I know how you feel in a way. I bought my bike and had to keep it at my Dads for a month or so before I had my test. Bloody horrible!

Get it sorted ASAP though. All the change going on will make it more difficult in the future.

All the best for the next pop at the test

Yes the best pass 2nd time around . You should try for a cancellation. I got my cancellation just in time for the AR08 after failing 2 weeks before. Good luck for next time
