my instructor did the same, ging. he even took me out on the motorway after i passed and got me to do 90+ because "you're going to do it anyway, so you may as well learn how to do it safely"  |

Having said that the first time i did 50 i was crapping myself and now I feel like a bloody snail doing it!

It is entirely possible to fail for not reaching speed limits, as driving too slow is also considered dangerous.

:x Why are people so mean to learner drivers? Because you're slow and you're shit and you're in my fucking way. Not you personally, like, and to be fair I apply the same rage rule to coffin dodgers doing 25 because they can't see properly anymore. |

I got stuck behind a guy doing under 40 from Bassett to Lyneham. I can't drive and I was desperate to go faster FFS! |

Getting on ok lady thanks. I really need to start revising for my theory and then get it booked up though. I've left it a bit long! Although I the shittest lesson on tuesday ever. I Was'nt feeling myself anyway, and all up a very long road I had a bloody white transit van behind me with two dickheads in. They kept flashing and beeping and were very close to my bumper. It made me really nervous and I crunched the gears a bit! When we got to the traffic lights though colin gave me permission to hoon it off like a boy racer to piss them off and they never really caught up with me after that. That affected my whole lesson then because I was wound up. But I guess everyone has band lessons. BASTARDS. |

This thread reminds me of my solution for traffic congestion. Anyone who doesn't pass first time is disqualified from using the roads for life. The shortfall in relevant taxes will be bridged by the "failed to pass first time" drivers tax. Seems fair enough to me. Sade, don't be wound up by it. Go faster and stop causing a public hazard  . |
