I know all the important signs, just that parking restriction one i wasn't sure on.

Its still a lot of info to cram in a short space of time.

Wasn't having a go - just trying to point out the steepness of the learning curve you put yourself up against.

From memory:

Yellow sign with schoolchildren is on a lolipop lady's crossing wand

Stopping distances on ice are upto 10x longer

red circle plus red cross like an x not a + with a blue background means no stopping

third party insurance covers damage to a third party's vehicle or property ONLY


awaits correction

Hmmm it wasn't a lollypop sign, it was a square one that i think i've seen on a bus.

Whoops on the stopping distance... I didn't plan on riding on ice anyway!

Looks like i got the TP question right then.

Yeah fair enough, i was just told so many times that the theory is SO easy to pass i thought that a couple of weeks was more than enough.

Bad luck. Get it re-booked, I'm sure you'll do it next time.

Well, Clarkson doesn't really get his karma after his comment a while ago about her;

Get it re-booked mate should all be fine

I revised all mine during 2 days whilst I was doing exams in January, but I used a book / a site I found with tests on, on the internet. (If I can fish out the link I'll post it).

Stopping distances it depends how you remember it, I remembered them in a sequencial order.

Oh dear, Don't let it get you down, keep practicing till the next one and Good luck.

Nope, you didn't. Third party is somebody else and does not include you.

M - gotta say this, please consider whether you are trying to achieve too much too quick.

I have realised that it's going to take longer than i first thought to do this properly. Hence my thread i made after this one http://forums.sv650.org/showthread.php?t=125770
That should be the best option for me

Sorry to hear that mate, sounds like you were very close and should do it next time.

I think the hazard perception bit of the test is ridiculous. It's so subjective it's laughable.

Bad luck, I guess a percentage of people are supposed to fail it. If everybody passed they'd make it even more ridiculous, subjective, random, useless.........because it would be seen as too easy.
