Congrats! You say it isn’t “peak performance”, but the British driving test is one of the hardest in the world- you have to be a pretty good driver to actually pass it.
Congratulations mate, you persevered
Mate, congratulations!
But after that many lessons, and still passing with those errors, are you sure you should be driving?
You’re allowed (iirc) 15 minors and still get a pass.
Minor issues are generally things that are mistakes, but mild enough that so long as you work to improve, the examiner is happy to pass you.
The same categories also have Major versions (1 fault fails the test) and Dangerous (1 fault halts the test entirely).
Control steering might be that OP had slightly sub optimal wheel technique, which meant they had a moment the examiner would have like to have seen both hands on.
Move off control might mean that they dumped the clutch a bit pulling away one time, and it wasn’t smooth.
Awareness/Planning/Junction right could all have happened in the same manoeuvre (candidate hesitating at a junction, and pulling out after a car they could have comfortably gone before if they were more aware)
Progress: Appropriate speed can be missing that a speed limit has changed from 20 to 30, then accelerating when you realise.
I’ve still got the rap sheet from when I passed, and you can be damned sure after passing I was ironing them out.
I had a friend that failed 2 times before making it. He’s a safe driver, but the pressure got to him, especially after failing once.
Yikes, maybe you should stay off the road.
It’s worth saying the number of minors is absolute, so they could’ve been in a single period (eg if they knew they made a mistake on the reverse park, so were nervous and drove slower for a bit and stalled a couple of times)
I had the same thing where I racked up around 10 minors during/after my emergency stop was partly botched but still safe. I was explicitly told I passed because they were all still safe, within a short interval and I recovered quickly from it.
That said, 1.5 years of learning is a long time to still be shaky after
If you are learning to drive in 2025 you are ngmi, bet on ai /s
