All fine up until about 100 meters away from the test center. Last roundabout. I am positioned in the correct lane as the lane to my left is left turn only. I pull out and see a 4x4 in the mirror not turning, i give them a bit of leeway as they had a horsebox and might need to take the turn a bit wide. All of a sudden she guns it and fly's past me. I started braking as soon as i saw she wasn't turning but sadly the examiner had used the brake. Gutted. 6 minors up to that point and I fail on the last roundabout. Typical. Anyone else got a story like this?
 
You failed your driving test first time*. definitely going to be one of the OCUK child killer drivers! :p

*note, I failed my test first time.
 
I had this, roundabout on the way back, I was making a right turn and car was coming from my left, not signalling, so assumed he was going right (the turning before me) but he came all the way round without signalling. I got out and round but caused him to slow down, so fail. 3 minors and 1 major. Was annoyed. Easily done though. You should nail the next one.

Nope, but better luck next time. :)

The best drivers always pass the second time ;)

I passed first time when I was 17 no accidents, speeding fine or parking tickets at all in all the years of driving (30+ now!) nor have I been pulled up by the police a single time in those years. So I'd say the better drivers are the ones that pass first time - so to the OP, better luck next time but you've already failed the "better driver" test in my book! :D

p.s. Unlucky on the test and good luck for the next one, just concentrate on that.
 
It took me 3 attempts to pass.

The first attempt I had 4 minors and it started to rain lightly, the examiner asked me to pull over and stop twice then on the third he asked me if there was anything I wanted to do and I replied no. He then asked me to turn my lights on and it was an instant fail.

On the second attempt I clipped the curb with the wheel coming out of the test centre as I turned, this was another instant fail.

Hmmm

Clipping edge of curb on a left turn is only a minor my instructor said :/
 
At least you know your driving wasn't at fault! Just get the re-test booked and you'll be on the road in no time :)
 
I passed mine first time and I knew I couldn't drive lol

I've heard of people failing by driving out the no exit :D
