supra steveo Posted May 3, 2005 Share Posted May 3, 2005 passed my C+E drivers license today (thats a big truck with 40 foot trailer for those who dont know) got only 3 minor points, 2 for steering, i went wide on two rounderbouts to miss the curb and another for a hesitation at another rounderbout, i checked my mirrors when i could of been on the rounderbout and while i was checking my mirrors i missed two cars that were blocking traffic, and to be honest i would rather check the mirrors and wait a rounderbout for 30sec longer than kill some one on a bike or run over a car with a family in. but good result anyway i am chuffed i was driving something that looked like this round ipswich today anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colsoop Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Good for you, you did better than me i failed mine first time as i was doing a hill start and forgot to put it in gear when i let the trailer brake off it rolled backwards. i passed second time with one minor for being hesitant behind a cyclist - i hate them when im driving a truck.
