Default Re: Should there be 2-way radios for Mod 2 tests?

Aye, shows a controlled reaction instead of a panicky one. Everyone gets lost at some point, and if you're nervous as well then it says a lot if you don't end up doing owt daft and carry on as normal.

Default Re: Should there be 2-way radios for Mod 2 tests?

I turned right into a petrol station on my test rather than right at the traffic lights immediately after it.

Thought it was some sort of a challenge to see how well I could follow instructions - he said 'merge into the approaching filter lane and take your next available right'. There immediately approaching filter lane was for traffic turning right into the garage but he didn't see it as it was chucking it down. Had a laugh about it once he'd come back and found me.

But yes, sounds like the OP had a rough time and I wondered about (voice activated) two-way radios myself while I was on lessons. Very easy to make mistakes on roundabouts, particularly when there are service roads, ghost junctions etc that the instructor may or may not be classing as an exit.
