... don't hit the curb. Make sure there's no "no right turn on red" signs around when you make a right turn. Yeah. The two things that auto-failed some friends. <_< >_>

I know there's things like parallel parking, four - way stopping, back - up parking, and there's stuff about speed limits. It's mainly on things like parking and if you listen to road signs and to see how courteous your are to other drivers.

You got to know how to park a car. If you don't know, let your parents teach you with it. If you parents doesn't know how to drive, ask your friends who is 18 or older and knows how to park well.

Also following every rules in the roads like the speed limit. Hmm... but my rules and your rules might be different. Cause I saw Utah's Driver License book and I compared it with Washington State. they were sort of different. What state do you live in?

NEVER, get the gas and brake pedal mixed up, that's all I can think of. I've had problems with that before...

they probably demand that you drive good, don't blare the radio, and seem confident. as long as you are a good driver, you should do good. good luck. wink.gif

well I didnt take my test yet but i drove *I have a permit* but all I can say is this

-always look on the side of the roads for signs (I ran a few stop signs)
-When reversing, look at the front of the car too (I hit the back of a car w/ the front of the car I was driving while reversing)

-And whatever you do, never ever play Grand Theft Auto (I play that game everyday and it ruined my driving skills...making me want to hit every car then run away..its bad)

ps: Also drive slow when the Police is around ermm.gif

Don't drive too fast or too slow. That seems to be a problem with a lot of people =/

Hmmm.... make sure you look out for signs, pedestrians, the lights, and parked cars x]

well..
-make your sure that when you come to stop signs or before turning right on a red light that you make a complete stop..
-always do your blind spot checks!
-don't drive too fast... my driving instructor told me how this other instructor took points off for driving TWO over the speed limit..

um.. i think thats it.. i cant think of anymore. hope that helps.

Hmm...go the right speed limit. My friend took the test today and she said the instructor took off points for going 2 mph slower than what the sign said.
Make sure you've mastered parking into spaces.
That's all I can think of right now.
GOOD LUCK!

omg! good luck...don't freak out soo much...i think the most importance is to look at every corner...just be as obvious as u can...look...turn ur head around...cuz the tester would really really see if u look or not...i got almost perfect scores...i just got marked off for not looking (obvious) at every single corner, street, whatever...ooo and remember to stop twice on 2 way stop sign...very important...but good luck! and have fun!

Best thing to do is be comfortable, being nervous is not going to help! Remember what you were taught!

having taken the driving test, here are a couple of tips:

1) dont pull a california stop.
2) master the parallel parking.
3) know how to back around the corner.
4) always check blind spots, even when entering a turn lane.
5) drive casually.
