    Passed my Theory test! :D

    Hehe, just wanted to share my joy at passing my theory test this morning

    I got 35/35 on theory questions and 54/75 on hazard perception

    I was slightly narked at how hazard perception was tho - the machine i was on was pants n kept going major slow at some points before almost going at fast forward speeds...most of putting n i cudda missed a hazard! Pfft.

    Anyhoo, I have a lesson at 4:30 today so hopefully the instructor will give me a realistic time to book my practical for

    Well Done Emzay Nice to see you got full marks

    I think i'd be wanting to redo the hazard perception test hehehehe. because if i got full marks on the theory... id want full marks on the hazard test... and then pass the driving test first time

    Having tried the hazard test - and failed the first time - i really doubt that it is possible to get full marks in it. And i got 35/35 in my theory too. (btw - hazard test was just something i tried for the sake of it, passed the second time when i sort of knew what they wanted from me). Another thing is that those videos do freeze up - and you can quite likely miss a hazard because the bloody thing skips past it. I am not impressed with the hazard test at all.

    I really don't get you. Do you have a hidden agenda? Are you a troll? Please explain.

    Heh.



    I'm sure there isn't a single person on here that is't happy for Emzay. I remember when I passed; it's a nice feeling. You're on the path. Of course everyone is happy for Emzay.

    It's also more than obvious that the test is just the begining. I was trying to have a little fun, but seeing as you don't appear to like fun, or others' idea of fun, I'll stop.

    I was referring to you saying completely different things in the two threads about the hazard perception test. One being that the test is easy and noone deserves to drive near where you live and here you say that driving is easier than the test. This got me confused on whether you were trolling the thread that i started.

    And remember - every time You have fun a kitten dies.

    Edit: Btw Grats to Emzay and sorry for hijacking this thread to clear up an argument

    I've no idea what "trolling" is - I assume it does't involve small trolls? Just being a bit, er, light-heartered in this thread. I could hardly state my opinions on it's useful-ness in a thread where someone had just passed!



    Anyway, well done Emzay. You buying?

    If that was the case, they'd be no kittens left.
