You could drive really well but skip a bit of vital observation and fail the test for that. Sadly, you only need one serious fault to fail. It's labelled 's' on your driving test report sheet. You can get a serious (commonly known as a 'major') fault if you get multiple minor faults for the same area of driving OR you do one thing that's potentially dangerous. If you get multiple minor faults for the same area of driving, they turn into a serious fault - and that's a fail. If you think you've done something bad, carry on! A mistake you think is going to fail you could actually be a minor fault, so keep doing your best to the very end of the driving test. They're only a problem if you forget your observation, cause someone else an issue or keep doing the same thing. Stalling, missing one of your examiner's directions or even screwing up a manoeuvre are not necessarily going to make you fail your test. A silly mistake is not a serious fault unless you don't deal with it safely. The types of driving fault:Ī minor fault (what's called a 'driving fault' on your test sheet) is for a bit of bad driving that doesn't cause immediate danger.
