Green1:
Did Friday guy pass?

mike the bike:
No.  I only taught him 3 hours and had a lot of faults to put right - mainly not checking LH mirror when exiting roundabouts and turning L.
I accompanied him on the test and saw him pulling away from the side of the road with no blind spot check and no 360 check after the emergency stop.
Apart from that,  he was good.

Green1:
I hated every second of my car test. Wasn't really interested in it but needed a van for work.
I loved the bike test though and it felt like it was over in seconds.

mike the bike:
I don't think anyone relishes the car test.  The only good bit is when you pass and having a few beers afterwards

matthewmosse:
It took me a fair while to pass either test, only finally did the car one a couple of years ago. Worst bit was overcoming the bad habits from a decade on the full bike licence, apparently lifesavers are not a good observation to keep doing in cars and after too long on a 125 I had a tendency to dawdle.
