Keep trying, my brother passed his this morning it was his 3rd attempt.
1st time he had 2 minors and a major. Pulled out infront of a car on a roundabout
2nd time he had 2 minors and a major, reversed round a corner when a car came the other way and he never stopped

Keep your head up mate and keep at it.
I passed 3rd time, and if I'm being honest I feel like a better driver than my mates who passed first time (some of which have had accidents..).
You'll nail it eventually.

Unlucky buddy But remember, there is no time limit to passing, just work at your own pace and don't try to rush into your next attempt to get on the roads quicker

Don't worry mate, I passed on my third.
1st- the examiner touched the pedal after parallel parking because I was coming out too close to the marked car (apparently)
2nd- I didn't overtake a bus that was parked in the middl of a road on solid whites
3rd- passed with three minors and the examiner was tlking about spectacular fails he had while i was having the test

Don't worry about it!
I passed second time.
First time i got a major for going around a bend in a road in 2nd gear instead of 1st.
Second time i went up the kurb on a roundabout and passed

Girl i know passed first time, next day she drove her brand new Yaris into a house coming off of a roundabout got out of the car and ran away. Not sure of the relevance of the story to the thread but i felt i had to get it off my chest.

I passed on my 4th time.. The 1st 3 times were for touching the kerb when reversing around the corner.. On the last time the examiners were working to rule so i was on my test for over an hour.. i thought i had really messed up cos i was getting nervous as i thought i would never pass...but id actually passed.!!
Get back out there asap.

dont worrry, i passed mine on my third go,
1st time, the instructor was scottish and i couldnt understand what he was saying, he failed me cos he said he thought i got too close to a parked car (he didnt say anything at the time and didnt have to take any action to correct me) told him it was me knowing the width of the vehicle lol. called him the c word and he threatened to ban me from the test centre.
2nd time, i got the same examiner, so knew i had instantly failed
3rd i drove the worse, but had a different examiner, and she passed me!
