R you stupid if you drive a car without pushing the hand-brake down?
Answers:
You weren't stupid, just nervous! You were probably concentrating on avoiding major mistakes, and missed the little 'routine' things. Next time you go for the test, just take extra care that the handbrake is always fully pushed down, when not engaged. And don't worry too much about it, otherwise you'll drive yourself crazy! Good luck.
yes
No, not stupid, ur a learner, ur meant to make mistakes, Just try to remember from now on.
very stupid
No
Yes that was a pretty stupid thing to do.
yes
No its just a minor mistake. What happens is that the car wont be able to move-granted it will move forced and feel like its stuck. Dont worry when I did my first test I couldn't find the window defroster and got marked down for that, and no your not.
Your a woman, so your not stupid, your just driving to the best of your sexes ability.
Next time, remember to remove it. And watch out for my car.
I wouldnt worry. When I went for my test I couldnt even get into the car cos I was so nervous. I set the alarm off and didnt know how to turn it off. The examiner had to sort it out for me.so no..ur not stupid. When ur nervous its hard to think rationally about anything.
Examiners are used to this kind of thing cos they know that most people are gonna be nervous & make silly mistakes.
You're not stupid, but it is a stupid mistake. You're certainly not the first to make it, and probably won't be the last.
Keep practicing, get comfortable, relax while you drive, run errands for/with your parents, then go back for a 2nd test.
no your not stupid - you said yourself that you were nervous. I've even recently went to drive off without pushing down the handbrake, and i passed my test 3 years ago!
Believe me, people taking driving tests do MUCH more stupid things than that all the time. Get a bit more practice to get your confidence back and then go for it. Just remember that developing driving skills is a lifelong process - it doesn't end when you pass your test!
Good luck :-)
No, it proves you're human. Everyone goofs up every now and then. Don't let it bother you.
Yes but just blame it on someone else!!
You're a new driver and things like that happen, so don't worry you will be fine. The mistakes I made while learning to drive would turn your hair white, I once hit an ambulance at the traffic lights when I was a novice driver and there are more stories worst than that.
Kev, England.
First of all, just because you forget an important thing like the hand/emergency & parking brake, doesn't make you a "stupid" person.even though it was at a time when you would have rather NOT forgotten to release it. We are all "forgetful" at times.even in times when, like you, it's an important time in which you would hope NOT to forget. Take at EASY on yourself!!.because even if you made a LOT of mistakes and had to take the test all over again, you CAN take it over again (and again and again and again).until you finally succeed! We all make mistakes.but THAT doesn't make you "stupid".so lighten-up on yourself. You'll discover that things go easier if you take it easy on yourself.
who else really knows but you. it is hardly a mistake to beat yourself over. if it was a safety mistake, then yah, be hard on yourself, and even then not really. on my road test 3 times i didn't stop at a stop sign, i just kinda slowed down and then glided through..not good.
I see people drive with no lights on and it is dark out. I like it when their seat belt is draging out of the door..
YES YOU ARE ACTUALLY PATHETIC AD INCOMPITENT
Beyond stupid really.
you're not stupid. that's a mistake even experienced drivers make. I still do that sometimes too, and I've been driving for like three years. To be honest, that shouldn't have been grounds for failing the test. you probably had a strict proctor. Unless you made many mistakes.
No, you're still learning, Like I said in your other Question, I've done it. You just need to remember to relax and take your time. I'll bet your instructor's seen far far worse things done during lessons and tests. You won't do it again as you were so embarrassed the first time. You'll have learnt from your mistake. Try again. You won't regret it.
Good luck!!
put that down to nerves it should come 2nd nature after you have been driving a while
You're not daft, just differently smart :-)
