I did a mock test in a different area to where I live and I practically failed (Even though my instructor didn't say I failed, he just said some examiners would fail me
)
The main two things I could have failed on were:
1. Unfamiliar Junction. I was approaching the junction and traffic was also coming towards me (this threw me a bit cause I then panicked because I didn't know if I was in the right lane) so I started to turn and my instructor said no no this one (there was two lanes coming onto the junction, and one small lane to go off which is where I should have gone) To be honest, I didn't have a clue what I was doing but I managed to get off the junction in one piece.
2. Meeting. I pulled out of a space and there was another car which stopped (the cars were on my side of the road). I couldn't see past the car in front, so I passed (The road was also slopped, so it was difficult to see) and as I passed another car appeared and had to wait for me. My instructor said I should have used 'peep and creep' to see if there was another car coming, although I feel if I did this i'd be too far out on the road for any other cars to get past, and I only saw the car after I had passed the first parked car.
It's pretty annoying, considering my test is so close. Hopefully these errors were only because it was an unfamiliar area :/
Has anyone else failed their mock but passed their actual test?
