driving test tomorrow...

I have my second driving test tomorrow. Failed my first one with 1 serious due to observation at a round about.

Had a 2 hour lesson today and it went horribly. I have lost confidence and dont know what to do.

any tips?

I was in the same boat last year when I did my test and passed on my second. All you need to do is believe yourself, say to yourself that you can do it. Just remember things that you did wrong on the last test and avoid doing that again. Try not to panic as if you panic you are more likely to cause an accident. One thing that worked for me was that I wasn’t treating the examiner as a examiner, I treated him like a friend or family that was in the car as last time I panicked about the examiner all the time. If you think they are family you are more likely to considerate on your driving as you don’t want to harm them.

Too many people just book a test when they’re not ready and just end up wasting money tbh

Mainly my mental attitude which improved my driving skills as well. I tried to think of it as just driving somebody around and showing that I'm a safe driver.

It worked :h:
