Passed with 3 minors, 2 of which were for coming a bit wide when turning left off main roads. In the rain, again! First time too 
The near miss was about 20/25 minutes in on our way to the test center. We actually rode almost past my house, anyway. A slight left bend trees on one side and houses on the right, 30mph limit. Riding along 2 seconds behind my instructor, I've looked down at my speedo and then hear him scream/shot 'whoooahhh!'. There were two cars in front the first had suddenly stopped to turn right with no warning. The 2nd car almost smashed in to the 1st and the 2nd car either had smoked rear lights or blown bulbs as my instructor didn't see anything. Instructor was glancing at his speedo too and had to slam his anchors on, rear wheel has locked, 2 meter skid followed by the rear wheel about a meter in the air. I swerve to the left and pull up just passed him.
If he hadn't have been leading I'd have most certainly hit the back of the MPV and ended up inside it most likely or on top. Hearing him shout and also seeing lots of smoke and the belly of his bike released adrenaline that I was still feeling half an hour later!
So I've ridden in hail and also experience a near miss already
