Some learner drivers learn everything but at the time of practical test they are completely vanished. They don't remember anything.

According to DSA Top reasons for failure:

Observation at junctions: Reverse parking - Ineffective observation can lead to the accident while driving. So it's your responsibility to drive your vehicle in minimum speed limit. To keep vehicle Position correctly. Use the correct lane. If you are turning to left keep over to the left and do not swing out. Watch out for cyclists and motorcyclists coming up on your left and pedestrians who are crossing. If you are turning to right keep as near to the centre of the road as is safe. Avoid cutting the corner when turning right. You should be very careful before you move into a junction. And make sure it is safe before you proceed further.

Ensuring you do not touch the curb or mount the pavement, while keeping the car slow, steering must be quick, and try to keep all round successful observation throughout the maneuver. Reversing around a corner is because ineffective observation or lack of accuracy.

Use of mirrors: Insufficient use of mirror can lead to the failure. People who drive a vehicle have got three mirrors in use. The main is interior mirror which is completely flat and gives the exact view out of the back. Always try to sit in the correct position to adjust this mirror. The other two is external side mirrors which have convex glass. The glass bends slightly outwards. The reason for this is to give you a wider viewing angle of the rear.

Use of signals: Use of signal must be followed carefully while driving such as Brake lights, flashing headlights, reverse lights, Horn, Hazard warning lights. Use of signal not given, or misleading signals can make the pedestrians and the other users live dangerous. You have to be very careful while making use of signal.

Inappropriate speed: Unsuitable speed can make the lives dangerous. Driving safely is very important. When you go for driving you should make sure that your speed is under control and you drive safely. Many drivers exceed the posted speed limits. But even if they keep to the posted speed limit, their speed may be unsuitable for the current traffic, road or weather conditions. One reason is that we do not know enough about the suitable speed for specific conditions.

There are many other reason that can be avoided while taking driving practical test such as laziness, sleepiness, being unprepared etc. Sometimes learner don't prepare well for their practical test, they feel tired and if they indulge in drink driving they are unconscious and failed to pass their test. Drivers should try to avoid this thing and try to overcome with this problem.
