Well sat mod 2 again the other day and wait for it... failed yet again

Sitting at lights waiting to turn right and the light went amber, looked as if the 2 cars coming down the other side were slowing down so I went. Nearly got wiped out! How could I have been so stupid!

Don't take this the wrong way but ya do know Amber = stop if your waiting at a light?

My tip is put the highway code PDF on your phone Then you can just browse it when waiting about etc. you do need to know it all not just the part on Motorbikes )

MOD2 is mostly about safety, your being watched on how safe you are and a big part is the highway code. I stalled 3 times on my MOD 2 but still passed with only 3 minors (i think) as when I stalled I started bike again , did my life savers and carried on etc. I felt like I had failed and was well surprised when I passed.

So keep ya head up and go for it again but seriously re-read the code and a nice video to watch is

Haynes "learn to ride" is what I read, I got 0 faults so it must be good!

I was in the middle of a box junction when it went amber. Need to take my time and stop rushing. Decided I'm going to wait till March to resit. Should give me enough time to get used to the bike etc.

probably the best thing... get your comfort and your confidence up.

i failed mine on the 15th jan just before they changed On the last 2 corners he said i would have passed if i hadnt pulled out and caused the Car to brake However it looked further to me but hes the more experienced rider ..

Strange thing was we had pulled into an estate so we could stop and fill out the form with the minors that i had gotten i just wander why instead of going into this street why couldnt he have filled it out back at the test centre i would have passed then!

So i know how you feel But good luck for when you retake Unfortunatly because im only 18 i now have to wait until november before i can take the mid class test lol
