I passed second time with 2 minors.

I also did my PassPlus for free as it was an 18th birthday present from my cousin
(her husband is a driving instructor, and we used my car.)

1st time with 3 minors which really pissed me off because I was penalised for cyclist approaching at a T-Junction. He was at least 200m away so I figured I could get into the new road before him and avoid a new obstacle in the road....my tester didn't seem to agree and nearly had a massive argument with him at my briefing

Actually I don't mind horses but tbh not encountered many. Never passed any with a big bore exhaust yet either, but that's bound to happen before long.

1st time, 5 minors (2 undue hesitancy, 1 observation (braking was a few milliseconds late when someone came flying round a corner behind me while reversing round a corner - examiner was forgiving because the other guy was blatantly doing about twice the speed-limit), and then 1 for gears and 1 for steering (last-minute gear-change going into a corner which was tighter than it looked)).

Oh, and I took my driving test before the theory-test and hazard-perception test were even invented!

I meant if you were so good you wouldn't have had to retake it. Unless your 70?
