6th July test 3

Instructor has decided he is retiring at end of this month so not best way to go into test but had to get on with it. Lesson before test went quite well considering the added presure and bad lessons I've had lately. Checked mirrors enough not too near white line didn't speed. Main error was on reverse round corner looking in left wing mirror too much and hit kerb through it. My instructor pointed at it as in telling me not to, near test centre I did parallel park again was looking in left wing mirror too much so my instructor positioned it upwards so I couldn't use it. Did it ok then. Did a good bay park then on 2nd 1 needed to correct it a bit but managed ok.

I was last one to go for test as my examiner was on phone, did eyesight 2nd go got tell me question how much tread should tyres have and probably the easyest show me question possible how to use the horn. Both them fine. Bay park straight away did it to the left as I had choice and only done it to right once or twice wouldnt be sure when to steer. Went ok but bit over white line so went forward to correct it and parked ok. Drove well exept for not waiting for car to pass as there were cars on my side and car coming towards me I thought there was rom to get through but examiner didn't agree and moved wheel left more. Straight after that I did turn in road in 5 turns no minors at all for that. Went on a few national speed limit roads didn't get much above 40mph though only got minors for that. Back at test centre I can't park straight in a bay going forwards so end up over white line. I guessed I'd probably failed for the bit examiner grabbed wheel but saw P ticked on marking sheet and thought it was a pass so disappointed my instructor came out I told him failed for one thing he thought it was for how I'd parked car in bay at end but told him what it was for. Also told him I went bit slow in places.

I'm now waiting to hear from my instructor about if he will take me for next test he told me to book 17th August as that was earlyest one. But he is deciding over weekend if he will take me as he was planning to retire. I've got a few instructors who I may get lessons with if needed but hoping not to need to.
