I didn't even end up going in 5th gear during my test.

But as long as you FIX it, they can't fail you. So if you go into 3rd, don't panic, just go back into 4th calmly.

Best of luck :biggrin:

They can if its a consistant error, Though i doubt you will have to go into fifth very often

And OP push the gear stick all the way to the right till it wont move anymore and just slide it up

You are complaining right now, about your awful driving.

As it stands you have been judged not to be safe on UK roads on your own.

How many times have you taken your test?
