When I was on my CE test I got squeezed turning right on a roundabout by, of all things, another artic. I went to follow the centreline of the roundabout to get the trailer around, but he came through on the left of me and apexed the roundabout to go straight on. I steered to the right slightly to avoid his trailer and took my trailer wheels over the kerb on the roundabout. Instant fail! no leniancy from the examiner. What ■■■■■■ me off even more was seeing the examiner drive out of the car park with his phone glued to his ear lol!

That happened to me when i was turning right at the rounabout heading from chingford go to go back to Enfield test centre about 5 mins from end of test … I stopped the truck waited for him to pass then moved out left … he questioned me when I got back to the test centre thinking I had failed the test … i said I was not going to mount the kerb expecting the well sorry you have failed always remember him his name was Martin the examiner he said good decision son I am glad to say you have passed !! I would of failed if I had of took the kerb or clipped it …
