if it says 100 go 100... ud probably be better off going faster than going slower... what i mean is that if u slow down u cause everyone else to slow down... also i think it depends on who is the instructer if they are having a bad day they might not respect the fact that you are being over cautious by going behind 2 transports... i dont know why u ask so many questions just do it and get it done with... guy this test is only half an hour and ur being over cautious- which can be potientally a bad thing.... ------------------ the fastest way around a corner is sideways

They'll say "make an emergency roadside stop" or something like that, at which point you do your MSB and pull over to the side of the road (not blocking any driveways of course). Pop on your 4 ways and pull up the e-brake. Really quite simple.

I took my G as soon as I was eligible to. I decided to go to Stratford because I had to wait less time compared to Kitchener.
I was pleasantly surprised - less waiting time. Even though I had no idea about the city the test was pretty easy. The highway test was me turning left at a light onto a road that had an 80km/h speed limit. I had to turn off of that road, do my emergency stop and 3 pt turn then head back into town for the city test. Just drove around a bit, pralell parked then we were back home. The G was mine I'm taking my girlfriend there to do her test. ------------------ 2000 Subaru Legacy GT |

When you pull over for the Emergency Stop, make sure you signal that you're pulling over, and signal as you're leaving (checking mirrors and blindspot). They might incorporate the uphill/downhill into an emergency stop, so if you stop on a hill, make sure you turn your tires the correct way.

when i was doing a 3 pt turn in my g test .. when backing up .. i fogot to put it in R, and almost hit the curb .. she still passed me cause they royaly screwed me over for the stupid graduating system. (long story don't ask) other than that, speed up to 90 until u merge.. don't even look until u hit 90, , don't reduce ur speed until u merge on to the on ramp.. look single look
keep looking at new things.. mirror speedo, and make it look like ur looking.. make sure they see u.. if its cold.. have the heat on nice and hot b4 they enter ur car.. caues its freezing out side.. every intresection look , even if u dont have a stop sign.. don't slow down though.. |
