Jim! I'm 27 and was too scared to get my license for 10+ years. I passed my P's test first go today in Corrimal, only one mark down from a perfect score. Your videos helped me break down everything I needed to learn for the test. Maiden voyage went fantastic and I am so thankful for your videos! Keep doing this great work :) Ruby
Thank you so much Jimbo for all of your videos! I passed my Ps test first go at Brookvale with a 96% score! I couldn't have done it without your help and the awesome tips you give for every aspect of driving in the test, thanks again!
Took my test today and passed it in first go. I am so happy and wanted to thank you for your videos. It was the exact route the examiner took me. I am glad I made it in first go. Thank you so much
JIMBOO, u saved me, the night before my test (two nights ago) I binged your headcheck and parking videos in preparation for my test and i passed first try at Silverwater NSW! thank you so much for your videos you are a godsend!
I stayed up all night watching your videos for my driving test this morning in Macquarie Fields & your video helped me so much. I pasted with a mark of 106 . I was taken through the same route today. What you’re doing is amazing ! Please keep up the great work !!!!!
Thanks very much Jimboo! I have passed my driving test in first attempt and videos are real gem 💎 . Thanks a ton for the wonderful service you are doing. Much appreciated ❤
Hey Jimbo, you’re an absolute legend mate, I’ve been watching a lot of your videos lately and I just passed first go at Richmond. Thanks a lot for the videos and help!
Hi Jimbo, I passed first go at Marrickville today scoring 113! I can not thank you enough for all the effort you put into your videos! I would not have passed without your tips and tricks.
Hi Jimbo, I owe you a coffee!! I passed my Ps test at Macquarie Fields. They did take me to ingleburn however I was taken to a slightly different route to your mock test. Your videos helped me quite a lot, especially the head checks videos! Thank you soo much!!
Hey Jimbo, thanks for your help.. your videos are super useful. Took the test 2 days ago and passed 1st go at Macquarie Fields Test Centre with 100% score. Thank you so much 😊
@@rajubudhathoki4309 hey I’m so sorry.. I just saw this message. I truly hope you passed your test, if you haven’t taken it yet, please let me know, I will share the exact route I was taken to.
Hey Jimbo, I just took my test today at Macquaire Field and just passed first go. I watched your videos before I took the test and they helped me a lot. Thanks a heap. And I also saw you training someone in the car.
Hi mate congratulations on passing 1STGO at Mac Field!!! Great work 👍 Yes i was there today. Prob saw you as well. Thanks for watching and always stay safe 🙂
Hey Jimbo! I've been with my overseas licence for 18 years, but I had to do the tests to be able to transfer it to a full licence in NSW. Even with the experience, I didn't know what the test was like here. Thanks to your videos, I just passed on the first go!
Hey Jimbo, Nick again with another question! I know it’s a bit of a hike from your area but is it possible to one day in the future make a mock test regarding the Roselands test centre? I’m going there for my Ps in a couple months and i’d love to see a video on the test route
Today I went for my test at macquarie fields, cancelled, examiner said we will check blinkers and brakes, then saw the tyre and said poor tread, he cancelled the test. Please make a video if you could guide what things must be checked before going for test on a manual car, Thanks
Sorry to hear what happen today. I have done a video that goes through this stuff, but I have done so many vids it just gets lost. On your booking confirmation printout it lists what need gets checked with your car. It's basically signals and brake lights, good tyre tread, no broken lenses on the lights and no excessive windscreen crack that obscures vision. Best of luck next time 🤞
Thanks Jimbo, this video has come in perfect time as my younger brother had his test at MacFields testing centre today and passed 1stGo. I can also confirm that he went to Ingleburn. We would not have considered there if we didn’t watch your video, so luckily we had a practice there before the test. As a full licenced VIC driver who is also the supervising driver, your videos also helped me especially for the 3 point turn. Thanks, you legend! Will be shouting you on your coffee tab shortly!
I took a driving test overseas licence conversion yesterday and passed in first go also got unrestricted licence, thanks for the tip - From Tamworth NSW 😭👍
Hi jimbo! I am international student and I got my license by watching your videos. Test centre CORRIMAL. Thank you and highly recommended for my friends
Passed 1st go thank you to your vids jimbo really helped me alot, highly recommend macfields test center to anyone living nearby it really nice instructors too
Jimbo your a bloody legend mate, had my test today and managed to pass on my first go and i have to admit without your help i dont reckon i wouldve done it, cheers for your work and all the people currently on their learners, just listen to JIMBO!! keep it up man ❤
Hey Jimbo I passed my test 1st go at Rockdale last week and I have never had an instructor. Thank you for going above and beyond with your videos with which if I hadn’t come across I would’ve failed my test.
Hey Jimbo, I have booked test on 25th January at 3pm . I am confused Do I need to follow school speed limit or not ? I heard school holidays but not sure. What should I do ?
Hello Jimbo, Thank you so much for your vdos. I watched a lot of them and I passed my driving test first go yesterday! Your explanation is excellent and not confusing. Everything is so helpful. Thank you for taking your time to help others. 😁
Hi Jimbo! Just passed my test 1ST GO in Botany with a score 107/107 and converted my overseas licence to a full NSW. I've watched a lot of your videos, some several times, and it's helped me a lot!! Huge thanks for your hard work
Question for clarification. At 7:19, we don't need to signal when reversing left, then right then signal right when pulling out? I've already passed my 2nd time (thanks to binging your videos 🙌🏻). But the first time, the examiner had that issue in my 3 point turn.
Hi Ronie from my experience you don't signal when reversing on the 3pt. It's not in the testing officers manual so as far as your test I don't really know. But congratulations on passing 🙂
Hi JimboI! I’m also interested in Edmondson park area. There is a driving test centre there and no driving mocking test videos. I really appreciate it. Thank you!
Going for my test on the 2nd of feb. In regional/rural nsw. Can they make you do a rear to curb 90 or 45 degree park during the test. At the test centre we start and end in a front to curb 45 degree. Just asking as my instructor hasn’t specified.
Hi Sophie it is possible that you may do a rear to kerb 45 (not 90) deg park. It depends if that is how parking is in your area and if the test routes uses them. Your instructor is really the person to ask as they would have local knowledge.
Hi jumbo just wanted to let you know that I passed my ps test first go because of your help with out your help I don’t think I would have passed than you Verry much
I have a driving test in Maqurie Field very soon. I just drove there once. I Don't know whether i should give try in Maguire field or not. I am so scared.
Hey jimbo! I passed the test FIRST GO! Thanks to you and your very helpful videos! 1 mark away from a perfect score 107/108! Keep it up and thank you again! 😊
Hi Jimbo, Thank you so much for your incredible driving test guide videos. I passed my driving test today! 😊I managed to avoid many mistakes today by keeping your advice in mind. Your mock test video and other videos were incredibly helpful in preparing me for my driving test. Your clear explanations and helpful tips. Thank you for sharing your expertise and being such a fantastic resource for aspiring drivers like me.
Hey Jimbo! I go for my driving test on the 30th and just wanted to ask a question. My instructor says its okay to use the space where there is a solid white line and merge over to make a left turn... Is this a good practice or not, I am just doubting this maneuver for my test. Thanks!
Hey Jim, Highly appreciate your work, thanks for making videos to help community in passing their driving test. I’ve got driving test tomorrow at Macquarie Field. Finger crossed hoping to pass in first go. Cheers mate 😉
Hey Jimbo, at age 32, I triumphed over my first driving test(Score:108 no Head Check mistakes and no Signaling mistakes), never having driven before! 🎉🎊 Your support made all the difference. Coffee's on me ☕️. Thanks a ton!
With non residential you need to be within 20km of the limit. So technically on such roads 45km will not attract a fail but it will hold traffic up a bit and may cause them to dangerously go around you. If you can get familiar with the area then I think that helps.
@@Alex-fh4my yeah i made a complaint , but i did my another test and got my liscence already , they only wanted me to give exit signal in double lane roundabouts not single, i did so and pass.
Hi Jimbo thanks for the videos, I just have a question on dividing lanes. Are you legally allowed to cross double/single unbroken lane when turning into a driveway? Thanks in advance
@@watamarlone1169 I'm trying to understand how the cars behind affect you turning right into a driveway across unbroken lines. Can you add some more info ?
I have parked cars to the left of me, then I start holding up traffic behind wanting to go past me and head straight, while I can not find a safe gap to turn right into the drive way from oncoming traffic on the opposite side of the road because it is relatively busy. Is it safe and legal to hold up traffic while I wait for a safe gap?@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424
Hello sir. thanks for all the good videos. you're for sure the rockstar of all driving teachers on YT. BTW, what software do you use to edit your videos and add visuals to them? I'm making some coffee related videos and struggling to find affordable ways to edit them myself.
Hey Jimbo! My name is Nick. Could you please make a video relating to entering and exiting motorways and freeways and how your speed needs to be taken into account? Cheers!
Hey Jimbo, passed with 95% today at Macq Fields although not being super familiar with the area, this video completely prepared me for the area and made me feel much more confident. Thankyou so much!
@@masondemanuele1516 well first off don’t stress it goes by really quick, make sure to look out for the speed signs because there aren’t many, most areas are either 50 or 60 and beware of the schools zones if your test is in any of those times, there will also be quite a few places where you’ll turn left with room for a car to come up beside you so once you indicate make sure to do a head check to your left back, other than I found it all pretty simple
@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 this is my third attempt, my first attempt I did at st Mary’s and I had an instant fail because I couldn’t see behind a parked truck and a car pulled in front, and the second time I failed at Penrith due to going 50 in a 40, I’m just nervous, will an instructor fail me for asking the speed limit too many times?
Hey Jimbo! You're a star! I've my exam slated later this month at Macquarie Fields. I've got into this bad habit of driving with only one hand - especially when I'm turning. Would this be considered a fail in the test even if all the other criteria satisfy alright?
Hey Jimbo just did a Macquarie Fields ps test on the 22nd just a heads up im 99% sure i got marked down for not signaling in the test center car park but passed first go.
Hi Jimbo, thanks for your vids. Pls at 26:29, if you had taken the 2nd exit (Wattle Ave) you would have come to a children crossing with a stop line. What is recommended here in case school zone is not activated and there are no children or pedestrian in the area?
If the crossing is not activated as a children's crossing then just treat it like a standard crossing. Basically that means give way to people about to cross but you don't have to wait until they are completely off.
Thanks a million for your help!!!! I just converted my ODL on IST GO!!! Same route as yours and I had practised it a zillion times hahahaha@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 🙌🎊🎉
I failed 3 times already and I’m nervous to go for my test I love the rta has set up these testing centres around Sydney my main problem is being nervous
@@thedrivingtestguynsw8424 certainly I would, even if I don't come back to watch your videos (which I still would), your indomitable voice telling me the correct driving techniques will reverberate in my ears whenever I drive in the future. Now, that's called an 'impact'! Salute! Peace out! 👍
it’s my test today, Jim!!! wasn’t ready yet and haven’t found your videos before my first take so I am so disappointed about that, but now I have tried listening to everything and taking note of all you said and hoping I will pass this second time. 😭
Hello Jim, could you please clear my query for the commercial area of maccquire field that ingelburn market, if we have busy round about so where we need to wait before the pedestrian crossing or after crossing the pedestrians where the breaking lines are made.where we need to stop for before entering the roundabout ?it's very confusing because very little space is there right after pedestrian round about starts
I know its about a 2 hour drive away but it would be awesome if you did a mock test for warrawong or corrimal as your content is amazing and there is nothing for that local area!
I would love to do other test areas but I don't know the routes. It takes a while to learn them. If you can send me a Corrimal route or or Warrawong route I will film at least a run through like I have just done with Macquarie Fields.
Hello, may I ask if u did turn on exit signal in roundabouts? I have a test on the 10-Oct, and some people saying they failed coz thy turn on the exit blinkers while exiting roundabouts, it is confusing
My tests is in 5 days I’m so nervous, everytime I hear the words ‘driving test’ my heart jumps in so scared but I’m also a really good driver my first time ever driving my instructor asked me “are you sure this is ur first time”😂 everyone says I’m a natural but this test still makes me so nervous
