Well done on your pass!

Not using indicators to point out the route's a bit unusual on the test, isn't it? I always thought one of the purposes of the indicator bit was to make sure you were doing your rear obs!

Paul, my observer said i would get one of three examiners, 2 of them allow you to go over the speed limit by 10% or so in an overtake as long as you came back down to the limit afterwards, he did say 1 of them would not allow 1 mph over, sods law i got that one. Also most of the examiners will use their indicators for a direction purpose so the route does not av to be memorised. seems i drew the short straw on the muppet i got, what a jobsworth. of course he never ever breaks the speed limit .

Daryl.

Congratulations. I'd look at it as if you passed with that particular jobsworth, you definately deserved to pass.
