    you ll probable only be asked 3 or 4 questions, there gonna be similar to those that are on the theory test. like what do you look out for on a country road, what does a single white line mean, whats the thread depth of a tyre etc etc... so look at the theory questions aswell.

    Also not trying to be smart but you should know all the answers to the questions if you drive!!

    Not trying to knock you OP, but I'm guessing you've waited over 6 months for this test and possibly double that.

    You could have been better prepared as you may ace the practical part today and you'll be raging with yourself if you get faults on the theory part.

    I know thats what im worried about, my instructor said im ready for the driving part, its the theory part he wants me to read up on!!..I know its my own fault though! I just hope I get asked the questions I know, which is about 75% of them!

    Thanks for the replies guys!

    Is the Rules of the Road book still out there? I did my test a couple of years ago and found it great because all the road signs were easy to read and remember. I got it in my local post office but there is probably an online version, like the other posters said, google. Best of luck!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,203 ✭✭✭Heyes


    to be honest try not to worry about it, if you stress it will affect your driving, if your not sure about an answer think about it logically, chances are you will be right. Most of the questions are a matter of just copping on to whats around you,its not ment to catch you out.

    Just relax , take it easy and be sure to check your mirrors :p and best of luck

    best of luck with the test SaxoDuff , just try and relax and drive as normal and you should be OK , where you doing your test BTW?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 232 ✭✭fluppet


    Passed mine two days ago :D

    You can get 2 or 3 questions/technical checks wrong and they will only be marked as Grade 1 (i.e. don't count).

    Most of them are obvious the only ones that aren't have something to do with train tracks or bus lanes, I can't really rememeber :D

    You should have done a leason the day before they go over all the questions your going to get the next day.
