driving test worry!!!

[lsharp]

hello
i have my driving test in a couple of weeks and im quite worried.
my instructor says that my driving is fine, but i feel as though i cannot get the hang of what ways the wheels should go when reversing, sounds really stupid i no but when im doing a parallel park for example i 4get which way the wheels should be turnt to get into the space...
can anyone help me to remember what ways to go etc
many thanks

You just need practise, if your instructor says your driving is fine and you have such a fundamental problem then your instructor is not instructing you properly

Dead easy Isharp, the wheels should go backwards when reversing.

A friend of mine had the same problem, he just could not get which way to turn the wheel where reversing round corners, his driving instructor gave him a kids toy jeep with working steering and told him to try replicating the parking and reversing round corner manouvers with it, as it would give a clearer veiw of what happens when you turn the wheel when looking from above instead of trying to work it out while in the car and stressed.It worked well for him and he swears by it and tells anyone having the same problem to try it :-)

Good luck with your test Isharp - just practise the parking and when you have passed your test, forget the parallel parking, just drive around till you find a bigger space........thats what I do.....(:o) xxx

And if you fail, just look on is as experience for the next one. Nerves got to me wuth my first test, even tho I could drive OK. Second time I was more relaxed.
