I am 20 years old and I'm going to take my driver's test tomorrow...?

I feel that I have had plenty of practice, but I'm still really nervous! Any tips or advice that you can give me would be SO very helpful!

Just relax. It's really really easy. Remember to buckle up before you start the vehicle and ask your test giver to do the same if they don't do it automatically. Always use your blinker and check your mirros and look over your shoulder when you switch lanes. Don't speed. Make complete stops before the white line or stop sign. Breathe deep and you'll be fine, it's easy. Good luck!

The key is to relax, just relax, and you'll see everything will be fine. I took my test about 11 years ago, so sorry if I'm not much help.

Just drive normal, usually you can fail like some of the parking ones and still pass. Just keep 2 hands on the wheel, and don't speed. Stop at the right spot at a stop sign...and don't hit anything.

if it's the similar to mine, it's a very short drive. I took mine in April. And the six months will be the 18th of this month :). But yeah. I barely had to leave the DMV office. went around it. and turned right every time. and turned left when we got back to the office. Just breathe, let them know that you know what you're doing (use mirrors), keep your eye on the road and speedometer. Speeding takes points off. Just use everything you've learned. Good luck!


Salty but Sweet
The people at the DMV HATE ther job (generalization). More likely than not the person giving you the test will not be nice. It has nothing to do with you so don't let them get you flustered.

When you back out of the parking space, don't hit the gas. If you fly backwards and drive into some trees it's an automatic failure :o(

If you want you could ask a relative to pretend to be the driver instructor (preferrable someone older and has a safe driving record and knows the laws.) to take you out. this will simulate the actuall test you will be taking. also double check tires, inflation, all lights on cars (turning signals, horn, flashers, lights, seatbelt ..ect. they will be checking your car!!) also you could ask a friend that already took his/her test to take you out and they could take you on the course they took to show you what to expect when you take yours. also just relax don't be nervous, your instructor is there to help! i'm turning 37 on the 18th and i know when i was 16 i was pretty nervous when i took mine. my dad tool me out twice the day before and it really helped!! .....hope this helps and i wish you GOOD LUCK!!....Todd
