it shouldnt matter...if you cant pass your test when its busy you shouldnt have your licence...pretty simple really

Did you do all your hours legit?

even if he can drive perfectly fine, theres no denying that less traffic will make things easier. Ipswich is no easier than sherwood, infact id go as far as saying it would be equal or even harder.

Zillmere was fine for me all those years ago...if you do it on the school holidays you dont even have to worry about forgetting the school zone speed limit change...

sherwood is pretty good, i went there.
you mainly use the back roads anyway and just on the main roads to get there.
Yer from wat my freinds have said sherwood deffnily sounds easier

Ipswich is full of hidden traps such as odd intersections, school zones that operate all day, plenty of one way streets to trick you (turn right at the next street - except the next street on the right is one way and no entry) and some nice doozy hills for hill starts. It's nothing particularly hard a such, but unless you've done some practice in that area (particularly with a driving school who know the traps), you might just find yourself failing.

Personally my advice is to test where ever you spent most of your time practicing. If you haven't taken professional lessons, do so. Even if it's only two or three, they'll be able to alert you to behaviour or traps that'll result in you either losing points or failing.

No I've not got a log book as I'm 25 now.

I've just been delaying it and delaying it and have not been in Australia the entire time I've been eligible.

Thanks for the information.

as someone mentioned earlier qld transport at zillmere, did my test there about 3 years ago and the driving was pretty easy. the instructor basically took me around the back streets of zillmere/aspley and only went as far as geebung which is industrial area so traffic is almost non existant except for a few cars. also therz no hidden traps like stop signs and school zones, only a few intersections and giveways but nothing simple logic couldnt figure out on the "difficult" ones.

I thought you couldn't stray too far away from your place of residence. So, if you lived at Sherwood, you wouldn't be able to take a drive to Beaudesert and do your test.

Zillmere x3

School zones and stop signs are HIDDEN TRAPS now? They are all well signed. With good use of the observation skills you SHOULD have at the point of doing your test, there is no reason these things should have any detrimental affect on your result.

Being familiar with the area will help you more than having less traffic. If you know the ipswich area best, do it there. Most of the time people know the area near where they live the best.

Finally............If you can't drive, it wont matter where you do the test, you ARE gonna FAIL................. If you CAN drive, it wont make any difference.

ZILLMERE! piss easy

More traffic can actually be helpful.

eg: No cars around, driver fails to notice the stop sign, goes through...FAIL.

However, more traffic means the vehicle ahead of him stops, making the driver more likely to notice the sign (whilst he wonders why the other vehicle stopped despite there not being any traffic), so he therefore stops and passes the test.

2 sides to every circumstance, however, IF the OP drives in a manner to adhere to QSafe guidelines, it makes ZERO difference. Drive SAFE and you pass.

do it at wynnum or cleveland in school zone times first up. easy as to do 40 and if you do it first up there wont be any actual parents dropping off kids etc.

greenslopes. And ask for the nazi old guy.

billanmeg

harden up. if you can't drive in traffic practice more before you go for your test

Id say redcliffe, I did my first test at zillmere and failed to stop a stop sign i stopped at everyday for on my Learners because i was ridiculously anxious, I went to redcliffe the next morning and everything was more relaxed.

sanchezz

what car do you plan on doing it in...

i did my first test in my brothers 350hp r33 in the wet... lets just say i coped a lecture about hooning and prceeded to fail my driving test over bullshit stuff.

i then did it the next week in a suzuki swift, didnt get one critical

my tips to you would be to, book a driving lesson before your test, and go dricing around the area and get the instructor to show you stuff to watch out for and then 10 big breaths then go for it.

+5 for zillmere

You got lectured and failed because you obviously did not drive to suit the conditions. Whether a car has 35hp, 350hp or 700hp is of very little consequence. If it is street registered, it is still able to be driven in a manner to satisfy the Qsafe requirements.

And your second test....... you didn't get one critical? of course you didn't, if you had you would have failed. A Critical driving error is just that....CRITICAL. eg: Instant FAIL

Strathpine is the easiest!! said my driving instructor way easier then Zilmer he said...

An i passed first go a strathpine. a few little traps there like the school zones not too many hills.

sanchezz

woops your allowed up to 8 mistakes or sumthing before they fail you, i didnt even get one..

but yea i obvously didnt drive to the conditions, but it goes to show the instant steroe type you get when in a performance car compared to a swift..

02comma

wynnum/manly for the win
awsome pass rate too

Beasty mirage

doesnt matter where.. jus get booked in for early in the morning say 9.. thats when i did mine many years ago.. was easy az.. not much traffic if thats wat ur worried about

moorfields

as has been said if you cant drive in traffic, dont go! Get used to driving in traffic first. One of my pet hates is idiots who cant drive in traffic. Learn to drive properly before going for a test. And since when are school zones, stop signs, giveways and shit traps? Even if you arent from the area they are clearly marked by either signs or road markings. Not like they are so decrete that you cant see them.

x2 for Greenslopes. Very very easy, especially during the day while everyones at work. But i guess it'd be pretty much the same everywhere.

jashneilk

this
i did mine at zillmere was pretty chill and just do it during school hours so u dont hav to worry bout school zones

Chris E

This.

Just look out for the school zones....

IIRC you can't go to any testing centre you want, based off your postcode I think?

20VGT

What? You said yourself you didn't drive to suit the conditions in the skyline. Yet that obviously was not the case in the swift. You got a different result because you drove better. Not because you were in a swift.

YOU are the reason new drivers are not allowed to have performance cars. Hell, you couldn't even keep it in your pants long enough to pass your test. I can only imagine the reckless shit you would get up to in a 350hp skyline with your dumbass flat-brimmer(EDIT, your NERD) mates in the back seat.

Maybe when you grow up you will see the bigger picture. In the meantime, for everyones safety, please stay off the roads.

sanchezz

haha mate your a low life piece of shit..
i bet you dont have a life, future, career or anything..
you are power trippen on boost because your a "technical member".. well congradulations your getting far in life.
