Well this topic is to the mature audience here on SA:MP or I should say the older audience. Well I just wanted your point of view on the first time you took your drivers test.. How did it go? Was it easy from what we actually fell like? tomorrow I am also taking my test, I fell ready but don't want to fail.. It's ok to fail in life but I mean come on! I just want to get done with it. If you did fail the first time, how many times did you have to take the test before passing? I'd love to have your opinions and advice.

well, where do you live? In the US, you have to do 6 hours behind the wheel, with an instructor before you can get a permit. that is fairly easy as long as you dont crash or do anything insane.

then to get your license, you have to take another test, it's easy, but make sure you know how to parallel park. take the car you feel most comfortable in. it needs to have manual handbrake in thecenter console, so no suvs, or brand new bimmers or benzs with electronic parking brake.

just follow all laws, use your signals, and youll be fine!

Seems easy for me, I cant wait till I can drive I love just cruising

It depends on where you live, bud.

When I got my temporary driver permit it was pretty simple. There was no pressure; you're not really expected to have any experience on the road whatsoever anyways. During the 6-months you have your drivers permit, you're supposed to learn a lot. I know I did. I took a drivers education course as well, it helped tremendously. I still use things I learned in that course today.

The main thing to remember when taking your driving exam is to pay attention to your surroundings. Make complete stops, use your turn signals, and wear your seat belt (also make sure your instructor has their seat belt on, too; they like to trick people here- it's the driver's job to make sure everyone has their seat belt on before moving). Remember to make complete stops behind the stop bar (the thick white line). Then move up until you can see; if you're clear, go. Otherwise, stop again.

Concentrate on your driving, not the instructor. Many people think too much about what the instructor thinks rather than paying attention to what they're doing. Be comfortable. Act like the instructor is your mother/father and it's the first time you've ever driven with them. Be cautious and alert.

Hopefully this helps you! It's helped a few of my friends in the past...

Good luck, and have fun!

Well ya.. because a 14 year old is not going to be driving, or will not be able to tell me since they haven't done it yet.

Other than that, thanks for the advice RealCop and carz Il make sure to follow your guys suggestions.

Try not to take it too full on. It's kinda like an old anxiety I had about oral language tests and stuff where I'd kinda freak out and not think properly. Just relax and be normal. Alert, but normal.

Good luck man! I'm sure if you've gotten enough hours and you've read the guide, you'll be fine.

Why can no one make threads where the title actually tells you what the thread is about like it is supposed to?

I passed my test first time, I was nervous as hell which is why I put it off for 4 years. Could have gotten it four years before I did, but whatevs. Glad I have it now. Good luck.

I didn't click on this till now, cause I was bored - Thought it was about a Server...
I don't have a license cause I'm cabbage.

I actually failed my first test because I was too confident. Nerves are a good thing sometimes, the second time around I took my time and passed with a perfect score. As for the topic title, yes it is the ultimate freedom. I couldn't imagine life anymore without my car.
