Took my artic test today.

Failed

Going to slow past parked cars next to a school when the kids were coming out.

I could understand if i was going too fast, but to slow.

Oh well just spend another £280 on a retest.

Bloooooming examiner.

Man, that's just daft. It was the sensible move I reckon. Did you have many "minors"?
I'm sure you'll be fine on the next one.

Failed my first HGV artic test on the same deal.... going too slow right in the centre of Northampton 25 years ago.

retested in Leicester a month after no issues at all, I think it was just down to knowing Leicester a lot better than Northampton so was much happier just getting on with the test

I failed mine first time too and for going too slow. Just floored it for my second test and passed with flying colours.

Did you get many minors?

Sorry my bad spelling, but now you mention it, but didn't have to actually mention it, it could mean what you won't say, if you know what I mean.

reversing is the easy bit. You'll be fine. Good luck

Yep i can reverse and drive it, no probs, just hope nerves dont make me make a stupid error.

cant afford to keep paying out £280 for the retest and use of instructors lorry.

Past my rigid on the 3rd go and the artic test 2nd time round so yes it can get a little expensive. Just think ahead and when you have the licence you can drive BIG trucks
