Hey everybody - I've been toying with the idea of learning to ride for a while now (well years really) decided today to get off my arse and do something about it, so on 23rd of this month I will be sitting my theory test.

I'm a little nervous, but also a little elated at the thought that I'm finally doing it. I know most people regard the theory test as a silly little thing that just has to be gone through, but I've never had to do one before. I've done practice ones on the cd you can get and I dont think I ever failed one, but still this is the real thing frown

Anyway hopefully I'll be able to report back with great news on the 24th - Just thought I'd share.

Just practise, it's not hard providing you prepare for it. Worth doing the hazard perception training DVD though.

If your nervous for your theory, wait till you do your DAS!

yes

If you fail, it should only be because you haven't experience in advance of how the test works. Get the Focus Multimedia Hazard Perception DVD and the DSA Theory Test CDROM - all you need.

Good luck. Done my bike one and got my car on the 25th. How stupid is it that you have to do two?

I've also done two, car and Bike. I passed first time, both times; the trick to it is to know how the test works. The Hazard perception is the problem. It’s a low resolution grainy clip that you have to Decipher and work out what the hazard is.

Basically a pointless waste of time that is compulsory
