    Default How many failed attempts to get your licence?

    Hey,
    just wondering how many people fail their P and L licence tests.

    EDIT: Can a mod pls add the option "Passed First time" for both L and P's

    Passed both first time. Is it even possible to fail your L's test? It was all common sense bullshit

    lol, a resounding victory for passed first time :P personally i think it is too easy and needs to be tightened up a bit.

    i am paranoid every time i go to a car park that some **** is gonna run into me cos they never learned to park.

    Failed for speeding up to 80 after passing the 80 sign.. Apparently should have sped up to 80 before reaching the sign :-/

    No way, i thought you can't speed up to 80 unless you are in the 80 zone otherwise its speeding.

    Passed my L's first time.
    Got my Red P's on the second attempt (the first time i went for my reds i had failed before i even got out of the RTA yard. They plant a stop sign right at the exit of the RTA to try and fool people going for their P's, and yeh i did'nt see it and i just drove straight out, immediate fail. I did'nt expect to see a bloody stop sign just there!!!
    Got my Green P's first go.

    Our local Vicroads has a Stop sign about 3-4 metres before the actual intersection, its impossible to actually see whats coming, you have to stop for 3 seconds, then ease out to see the road, completly pointless, but so many people fail on it, despite every instructor taking you over it a thousand times prior.
