    Worrying about it is as effective as chewing bubble gum to solve algebra,relax into it and you'll be fine and dandy

    MOD 2 is scary as you have the examiner right behind you. The best thing to do is ignore him in your mirrors and keep your line. If you take a wrong turn carry on DON'T try a u-turn, etc. Stay calm and keep your distances. I did it in Salisbury as well and the examiner if still the same rides a BMW. Lovely machine.

    When it's your time to go it's your time, so don't let it catch you.

    I done my DAS at the beginning of the month in Swindon, to many speed change areas, watch signs, just think you have a satnav in your ear and don't watch him all the time, remember life savers and winkers on and off, the person who done it after me left his winker on to long, instant fail, just try to relax and enjoy the ride, it goes quicker as you relax, good luck

    They usually are but wont show you till they are finished as they have a serious job to do. Really they are ok.
