Passed first time, but was on second provisional at the time after living in Germany for a year.
And I agree with Westside that the test here has the wrong focus - in Finland they teach you how to control a skid amongst other things. Literally tonight I saw a car skid out on the M50 and there was not a serious pile-up because the traffic was fairly light at the time. Drivers here believe they know how to drive at speed (and they do!!), but have no idea in real life...
Though we are not now that strength which in old days moved earth and heaven; that which we are, we are; one equal temper of heroic hearts, made weak by time and fate, but strong in will to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
