you have only got a minor for that

i was doing 30 in a 40 on my test as i didnt know the speed limit and got a minor for it, so you must have done something else to fail

they will mark you down for going too slow just the same as if you go over the limit, i failed a test because i was still going 30 as the limit changed to national, when a bloke in a citroen overtook me on double white lines, examiner told me after the test that i should have sped up sooner and as a result of not doing so he marked it as serious.

i was totally gutted that day as it was the only thing i'd done wrong :(

Yeeahh i know they can, i got 3 minors on my test for going too slow lmao

But if you were only doing it for a short time, then it should only be a minor shouldnt it?

they failed me because the driver that overtook me crossed the double white lines which he said posed a danger to any other motorists that could have been travelling in our direction.

failed my first test for going too slow was doin 40 on a narrow country lane with a national limit
i wouldnt have minded if i was holding anyone up but there was no one behind me... anyways
2nd time i failed cus i stopped at a roundabout that was very busy sat waiting for about 5 mins so i got fed up and just gunned it and cut up a beemer.

3rd time i passed with 3 minors.

You can go slow...Like where I live there's loads of old lanes where the speed limits haven't been changed and there like national speed limit. You just say to the women I don't feel safe enough blah blah to do 70 so ya do 40 instead...

An before anyone says owt I aren't just been a pussy I've tried doing 70 nearly ended up in a farmers field :lol:
