He has a driving test this afternoon. Apparantly, he also has the shits, but it is not confirmed if these two incidents are related. We'll bring you more on that later.
Goodluck, dude. Use your experience and skills from years of Burnout training to guide you to victory.
Only then, a winner shall be you.

Remember to indicate when you pull over.
I failed my first exam with 7 minors because I failed to signal four times. Four minors in the same thing = fail >.> and just think if I hadn't messed that up, that would've been a first time pass with 3 minors... how impressive would that have been!
Anyways, good luck Jordan.

Good luck Jordan, try not to get the seat messy
Jordan

Oh jeeze, extra pressure :D
Thanks guys, alot. My actual driving is apparently pretty perfect, its more my menuvers (sp) that are a little dodgy sometimes. I know exactly what to do untill I have to do it and stuff goes wrong XD.
But, if i concentrate i'll do fine and unforchunatly no amount of PGR3, Ridge Racer 6, Burnout Revenge or even Excite Truck are going to help :)

Yes on dry tarmac that's a good idea. But the experience from games can help when you drive on a slippery surface. Or at least help so that you won't panic when the car starts to slide.
Good luck on your test Jordan, but I recommend that you rely more on your driving skills than luck ;)

Really hope you pass dude. You deserve to.
You'll be fine as long as you don't think about mistakes. You shouldn't be focussed on not making mistakes, but on driving well!
Anyway, good luck :smile:
You can do eeeeeeet etc.

Good Luck Jordan. My driving test was one of the most nervous things I have ever been through but I managed to Pass first time with only 7 minors and I have now been driving 6 years :)

Passed mine with only 3 minors about 4 months ago, so much freedom :)
Good luck mate, I found that the driving part was easy, keeping your nerves and staying calm is MUCH harder.

I know its off topic but i can't understand why they allow you to have So many minors and still pass. They should lover it to 8-10.

Apart from the 6 years, I've been driving 3 months exactly now.

Took me 4 attempts to pass my test!
The annoying thing though is the fact that I knew I was good enough, my driving instructor knew I was good enough, I just kept letting the occasion get the better of me and ended up making stupid mistakes!
In the end I just went in with a "I don't really care" attitude - helped me relax a bit and I passed!

Same situation. Took me 4 attempts to pass, as well.
Second time I failed was annoying, as I failed when I was reverse parking in the test centre...right at the end of the test. I was minutes away. Plus, I shouldn't have failed, as I thought my reverse park was fine. Still annoys me to this day.

That's harsh!
I remember on my first test I failed because I apparently wasn't ever checking mirrors when pulling away, etc. I checked every fucking time! When I told my instructor he said that I had to make it overly obvious (as in twist my head right round), but its not my fault if the examiner is too retarded to do his job properly!

I think they had good cause to fail you considering what really happened.

Hope you pass next time, 3 weeks isn't really that long away.

Next time drive through the terraforming icon, that should give you some extra points. Also if you happen to see a whole group of Elvis on the street, get all of them, that should give you a huge bonus.
At least that's what I did (more or less :P) and I also passed on my first attempt. But I had a very cool instructor. I had to drive to my home and back. I never drove fast than 40 km/h.

Jordan, you need to nip to the nearest Arcade and have a go on Crazy Taxi as God originally intended (with a steering wheel and pedals.) Only then will you have immense driving skills.
