Basically I've failed my practical driving test 4 times now, the first 2 i really wasn't ready for, the 3rd i had the supervising examiner AS WELL AS the normal examiner, so the examiner couldn't give me the benefit of the doubt as he was also being assessed. The last test i was 100% ready to pass but i hit the kerb on my reverse round a corner, everything else went great!! the annoying thing about that is a mate of mine passed a few days later despite hitting the kerb in his manouvres and indicating incorrectly!
I think what it boils down to is pressure to be honest, i'm not good with it. If something relies on me doing something then you can be pretty sure i'll mess it up. So does anyone have any advice?

NOTE: I DO NOT NEED TIPS FOR THE TEST JUST STUFF TO KEEP ME CALM

After replacing the battery on my 1999 mercruiser 3.0 I reversed the poles. The ignition was in the on position. When I went to the dash and turned the switch I got nothing. No instrument panel info and no ignition. How much damage has been done? Possible fixes. I tried the circuit breaker and nothing. Help!

As you know I've decided to give the bachelor railfan (or as you say foamer) phoning me another chance. I'm wondering if railroad DVD's or videos would tide him over long enough for me to see if he has the normal male desires? Or will he still need to hang out by the tracks? I helped him clean up his part of the place, and it's only semi-gross now, and I had my friend give him a trendy haircut...he looks fairly good now, as long as he doesn't talk trains and go all weird and creepy.

I went to shift my car from drive to reverse, when there was a clinking noise. Now it makes this winding noise when i put it in reverse and hit the gas. It still goes forward, but you can still hear the winding noise faintly. Is my transmission compltely out or is it something else. Also, does anyone know how much that would cost me??

I was involved in an accident yet not involved in an accident. I was making a left turn at a turn where you yield to oncoming traffic and saw a motorcyclist in front of me. There were two lanes and he was in the far right lane. I stopped so as to not hit the motorcycle. There was no contact. I think I scared him and he started wobbling and eventually falling and sliding in front of me. He told the police that I was blocking both lanes which caused him to swerve and fall down. However, the police investigated and found me as an uninvolved motorist in the report. My question is this: he had to go to the hospital for "road rash". Can he file a claim against my car insurance even though the police said I was an uninvolved motorist?

I have a problem with the passenger side windows not working. The battery was dying and I attributed it to that but then I replaced it and they still do not work. The driver side ones do work but the front passenger one sounds like the motor tries to move but doesn't and I just get a click with the passenger rear one. I was also having a problem with the left turn signal lighting up when I hit the brake pedal. It corrected itself somehow though.
A couple of things; I did try and jump it when the battery was dead. Also, I just bought a phone charger and plugged it in the cigarette lighter. It seemed to start not too long after this. I didn't notice any shorts and I have used one before and never had a problem.
I checked fuses and didn't see any labeled window motor. Also checked fuse and relay box next to battery and didn't see anything labeled that would be helpful.
Any help would be appreciated and any other questions I will read and follow up with.
Thank you.

My tires are fairly new and one of them got damaged a little bit. How can I stick the flap back in place? I've tried crazy glue, but the tire seemed to just absorb it. I tried some gasket sealer thing and that was just a useless mess. Any ideas or suggestions? Thank you all for your help!

I live in New Jersey, I recently recieved my examination permit and my road test for the provisional license is in january. I'm currently 17, but a few weeks after my road test, it'll be my brithday. Can I skip the provisional license all together and just wait until I'm 18 for a basic driver's license? I'm asking because I understand that the Provisional license has many requirements that I would like to avoid (for example, the number of passengers in the car). Thanks in advance.

I'm considering training to obtain my private pilot license. I'm 6'2" @ 210lbs. Am I too big for the 152? The difference for the 172 is +$50 a hour which adds up. Pros/cons of each. I don't care about bringing people along.
