I had a similar situation to you on my 2nd test - my instructor stopped my test midway through but shouldn’t of got involved (*I actually complained about this officially*) as I was coming to stop at a junction, I stopped a bit short of the line so I put my clutch on to edge myself forward to have a better view of the road. As I was stopping where I wanted to stop to wait for a clear path to go - I was physically braking like my foot was on the pedal, the examiner screamed at me and grabbed the wheel and stopped the car and I was like “what are you doing? i’m literally on the brake pedal and in control” and he didn’t answer and just directed me back. I was ABSOLUTELY FURIOUS and complained about this. It was in October 2020 so just before the November lockdown we had, I booked the next available slot as soon as I could which was January (my next test didn’t end up being until October 2021 because of cancellations due to COVID) so I would just book ASAP. I was like you, I was put off and especially cos of the enforced break I was very much like what is the point but then I remembered, I was a bloody good driver and I knew I could drive I just needed to pass the test. Trust in yourselfI failed my test lmao and I’m so annoyed bc I slowed down before the crossroad but apparently it was too late that the examiner had to slam on his breaks (bit excessive in my opinion).
I’m slightly put off by the whole experience but at the same time I want my licence. It was sooo nerve wracking.
My instructor said not to book him until a week before my next test day as he knows I can drive (I’m also paying to be on my grandmas insurance) and doesn’t want me to waste my money.
I know it’s 10 days until I can next book a test, but how long would you guys wait?
