:D Congrates !

Be careful !!!!

Dont think because you`ve passed your test you can take risks. Relax drive sensibly & enjoy it !

Congrats man :) Be careful in the winter weather, it's all too easy to get into trouble with ice! You seem pretty sensible, which is a nice thing to see with new drivers- far too many mod their cars to daft standards, and act like kids behind the wheel.

Good feeling when you pass, nice little Christmas present to yourself :p

Yep dont act like a tw@t when driving and you'll be allright. One of my mates wrote off his car and a new focus less than 5 hours after passing his test because he was "showing off" and accellerated into a pretty much blind corner :roll:

Well done Joe, it good to pass first time :)

+1 to all the comments advising caution.  Far too many late teens/early 20s think they are invincible.  Remember that when you do something silly, not only are you risking your own life but also your passengers & any other motorists/pedestrians/cyclists etc near you.  As my grandmother use to say "You're a long time in a wheelchair & longer dead"

Also, make sure you book a motorway lesson! (assuming it's the same as in my day - you couldn't go on the motorway until you'd passed)  Motorways can be especially dangerous to inexperienced drivers...

Well, can't say its worth another thread, but I finally got there. Test yesterday, and got more faults than last time :? but no majors. 5 lessons in 8 months and I was good to go :)
both times I have had a woman called Beth test me, and apparently does not favour passing males.
