Literally actually factually about a yard away from a crosswalk, going 35 MPH, and the light turns yellow.

Do not rely on acceleration too much. You are not racing a car. You don't huge bursts of acceleration in street driving.

Also use the brake to your advantage by easing into corners gracefully. Also keep your eyes on a swivel and occasionally check especially on corners, intersections and changing lanes.

It's not too hard. Just get used to the flow of street driving. And don't use the burst of speed recklessly. Only speed up when you need to.

To add onto this, if you can do some sick ass moves like drift, you probably can gain any points back through respect that you might have lost.

Just cruise senpai

don't rev the engine

when you're at an intersection, turn on your blinker and remember the order in which to watch your mirrors: inside, outside, blind spot

practice parking until you have a good idea where your car is spatially

fucking watch out for pedestrians and bikefags they will ruin your shit

look in your central mirror when going through a green light to see if you can brake if it turns yellow

practice makes perfect so get driving
>>
>>318029859
If you are losing control in turns, it's fine. If you got a good angle, then speeding through it good too.

You should try getting a motorcycle instead, I don't know how you go about getting a license or whatever for them in your country, but it is easy as fuck here in Australia. Having my learners for a motorcycle has been much more enjoyable than when I had a learners car license before that expired due to me not being able to get my hours up.

Don't give up hope OP, I've had some friends that failed it their first time too. Just exaggerate like crazy when it comes to doing safety stuff. The only shitty part is that you have to go back to the DMV, and the DMV is a shithole

Its ok anon I failed my test 3 times.
1st was because I had to do a manual car parallel park on a steep hill and I went onto the curbe slightly.
2nd was a 3 was intersection and I was to busy looking left and right and I didn't notice a car sneak up on my from the front even though I did look before moving to the middle.
3rd I finally stopped dropping my spaghetti and sang in my head to drone out my fear of fucking up and killed it.

Aus driving tester are massive bastards.
They dock you for everything from not constantly moving your head around even though you are looking in the mirrors.
They dock you for not doing a head check everytime you go around a corner since there could be a bike that appears from the ether.
They also dock you if you make a turn onto a road with no lines and go into the middle of the road since you have to apparently stay near the gutter and then indicate to move into the imaginary other lane even though there are no cars around and there are no lines.

On a hill manual cars roll back so you have to put on the handbrake, put the car in 1st and prepare to start up while dropping the handbrake.
Basically you brain has to tell your arm to undo the handbrake and drop it, raise the clutch and press down on the gas all at the same time.
Lots of people have trouble doing two things at once, three and people tend to fuck something up.

I'm in Nevada, and they passed me when they really shouldn't. I've been driving for about 5 years now I believe.

I've totalled 2 cars and been in so many wrecks that I've lost count. To be fair, one of them was from having a seizure on the road. I've never had seizures until I started driving oddly enough.

You drive a MANual you can drive damn near anything.
Get a job where the boss wants you to drive a van around then right there it helps.
Learning a MANual also makes you far more attentive as you are constantly moving, looking, changing gears so on, in an auto you just slump in the seat like a blob of shit and fall asleep at the wheel.
Also you don't have a giant sticker on your license that says 'Is a faggot that can only drive auto'.

Learning in a manual makes you a better driver.

It's fucking retarded.

I was going into the test with no formal lessons, and then we just gave up and paid someone to teach me parallel parking.

The guy showed me the exact motions and timing with the wheel to parallel park.
I wound up being able to do with without even looking
This guy had this shit down to a science

>>318034384
You wouldn't fail for going 5km/h too slow in scandinavia.
The reason passing the test in scandinavia is hard is because there is a quite extreme focus on defensive driving. Your driving speed should always reflect the conditions. In rain, snow, cold, or near crowds you should always slow down, and if you drive 20km/h too slow in those areas, they would only see it as positive.

My teacher told me that I actually fucked up a few times during the test but the examiner probably only let it slide because I seemed so fucking nervous to him.
