I've been waiting for this moment for almost a year now. It takes almost 9 months to get a license here in Singapore. But thankfully my theory tests passed without any hiccups. Now it's the big test on the circuit and on the real road. Once I'm done with this, I'm officially a licensed driver.

I need all the luck I can get.

Good luck!!

Good luck mate, I have always assumed you have your licence already. It sounds pretty tough to get the driving licence over in Singapore, you have to drive on the circuit as well as on the road? What are the testing criteria?

Good Luck James

Good luck mate! I know you'll do it great!

btw, I passed my theory exams also, I'm starting to practice driving in Aug/Sept and I'll have a driving license in October!

A track and road tests? damn!

Good luck buddy

wow, its really that difficult to get a drivers license? 9 months!?

After all that army training, this should be an absolute cake walk for you

Best of luck!

GOOD LUCK JAMES

Think of the day you can drive the MQP downtown pimpin

ps: you still got the MX5 ?

Best of luck James!

Yes, half of the test is in a circuit. It'll involve some basic driving and obeying traffic rules. Most people fail here because of the parking involved. Three types - parallel, directional change and 90 degree parking. The road tests are to see how confident you are in the real world. How to change lane, how to handle traffic, how to deal with situations etc... A pass is committing less than 20 demerit points worth of mistakes. A simple thing like not giving way at a pedestrian crossing, immediate failure. Car dies halfway, 4 points. Car slips on a slope, 4 points, You get my drift...

It's more of the wait rather than the difficulty. The government purposely makes it tedious for us to pass because there are way too many cars on the road.

Hmm, in army I get trained to ride a bike, not drive a car.

Yes I still do have the MX-5, will post a comprehensive review and picture post once I get at least a few hundred miles in it!
