Many people fail their road test one, two, three, or even more times than that. I failed my Road Test 6 times and I thought it would be useful to share some tips that I found from the Internet and also from my little personal experience, so that you can be worry free and get your license as soon as possible! These tips to pass your road test are somewhat common sense to experienced drivers, but to newer drivers, taking their road test for the first time, this may not be common sense after I have tried my best to include most of the scenarios (with illustrations) which we face during the Rod Test. If you come across any mistakes in this, please excuse & email me. The whole thing was done in a little hurry.
