mostly of the Police will do trick (REVERSE PHSYCOLOGY), so listen to what they ask you to do but BE CAREFUL of doing it (FOLLOW YOUR INSTINCT), if you think you are a on a right path then do it so but if you think it is only a trick or trying to apply reverse physcology then do not follow that command and do what is right.

for example: the police will let you to stop "overtake" on a solid line and he will instruct you to overtake , DO NOT FOLLOW him because solid line is non-overtaking and if you will follow him then for sure you will FAIL...

Thank you all for your right guidance.

While go throuhg some more doughts coming in my mind.

Pls let me know them.

Does parking allowed only the marked area?

some people told that "If the area which vehicle parked is no parking area put hazard signal".

Is it true?

Do need to put hazard signal if vehicle parked in actually parking area?

Do need swithch off ignition while get out from vehicle?

Can i ask to the officer to which direction i may go, If they wouldnt tel before the Junctions/Round about?

If you already have a driving lic. in your country, then just drive as normal as you do. Remember the ff;

The speed on the first lane is up to 70kph only.

On the middle lane, is up to the speed limit only, say 80 on the main road.

On the fast lane, is when the limit is 80, its 80 only.

Don't park the car eventhough the officer told you if the place is no parking, tell him parking is not allowed here Sir.. Or no enter sir, if there is a no enter sign, or one way, etc... It would be a big challenge in your IQ about this to remember, but as a driver you should know. If he said it's ok, then go ahead.

It's better to drive where you please to go. you need not ask the officer, otherwise, he will test you, and confuse you a bit, he will not tell to the left or to

right before there is enough way to go to it so just drive, usually at the round the bout two times and he will say stop.

Avoid exagerating clothes, comfortable and clean clothes gain confidence, so be sure to take a shower.

The biggest mistake you should not is "take care not to stop the engine" when you started. Avoid abrupt braking when stopping.

If you didn't pass, don't lose hope, try again next time, normally, first test is failed...but the chances are you will be passed if you already have a ten years prof. lic. in your country. One thing is sure, if you failed this test, you need to take another full course..

Goodluck! Let us know when you pass...

GOOD LUCK!

Some of the things you have heard are correct but still there lots of chances you will make it.

1.Take your light breakfast if its in the AM.

Wear something comfortable including your rubber shoes.

2.Greet the officer or the examiner.

3.Take a deep breath and do some stetching before the test

3.Don't panic, presence of mind and be confident.

4.Constant practice will make you comfortable and free from mistakes.

5.And if you made a small mistake during the exam, try

not to show it.

6.After the exam, thank the examiner.

Hope this will help.

dont greet them when u get in the car fix ur mirrors dont forget the seatbelt. ur speed should be average dont be too slow they turn to get impatient. check ur mirrors all the time and when u stop dont forget to put ur hazards on. that is when u r getting out of the car.

yes they do fail people a lot so just stay calm
