6R: Note to self

**danielle** · 17th December 2009, 13:23

Note to self, and whomever else is listening;

Always, ALWAYS check your WOF before you sit your restricted practical. DO NOT assume that it is correct just because the past 5 years your mum has been doing your car WOF so you've never had to deal with it before.

ASSUMEing makes an ASS and of U and Me....or maybe just me?

Note to self. Maintain my own shit rather than have mummy do it for me for 5 years!

Such a girl thing.

Most proberly. But i am a big girl now and completly understand it was my fault and i neeeeed to grw up

**crazyhorse** · 17th December 2009, 13:37

Does that mean you fail your restricted? OR did you just need to reschedule for another day?

**danielle** · 17th December 2009, 13:42

Both, i failed because i failed the pre test on the bike, so i had to rebook for monday and pay 40 buks or something. Wont be making that mistake again!

**p.dath** · 17th December 2009, 13:44

Hpefully your bike passes the WOF, so you wont have to rebook again.

Bummer, vehicle not up to standard = $ gone, yes?

My wife did her licence test in a car with no WOF. Put the sun visor up after she had passed, looked at the sticker, oops that was lucky.......

Fortunately it was back in the days when the cops did the testing and didn't check that stuff.

Not for all of us though lol. I've had to do the warrants for all my vehicles since I started driving/riding. I don't mind taking them in, it's when they fail for whatever reason that sucks.

**danielle** · 17th December 2009, 18:35

I'll be doing my warrents/rego by myself from now on now ive learnt my harsh lesson!

Another take away thought might be that you need to ensure you read the conditions on any forms etc like the one you get back when you book in for your restricted which quite clearly tells you the conditions for being able to sit/pass the test.

Good luck for Monday

You are not alone on this one. Knew a man , same thing, going for his car licence, no warrant, blamed the wife lol
