Failed again!!!! Grrr!!

I failed again at my driving test! This time I was taking it very relaxed because I didn't want to be too nervous, instead once I was at the wheel I was twice more nervous than last time.
They failed me because I went at 30 mph in a road where I should have gone at 60 mph. And they failed me as well because I was waiting behind the buses if they stopped at the bus stops instead of going around them and overtake them!! I did overtake a couple of times but only when necessary and when safe.

All I was trying to do was to drive safely and with no rush. Where does it say that I have to go at the maximum speed required??? Can I not go at whatever speed I like? Fine, I understand if I was going at 10 mph but I was doing 30 mhp which is the limit in all of the city of London! How was I to know the examiner was taking me to a country road? If I was driving on my own I would have surely gone faster, but I wanted to make sure I wasn't going to fail again! I am ranting now, sorry, I am still so upset and it happened nearly two weeks ago.

The next exam is on the 2nd May at 2.30pm Greenwich time, please please pray for me to get it right this time! Hopefully I will be third time lucky!!

All I hope is that I don't get the same examiner, I really didn't like him. He made sure he told me I failed half way through the test, when he should have waited until the end. What a horrible man.

Been away for awhile, good to catch up with you! I'm deeply sorry that this driving exam experience has been so horrible! I truly admire your willingness to continue (drive on!) for your license. Hurrah for you! Keep going, you'll get it! : )
