    @@michaelw2747 I failed my first test but I can give you some advice. Take your time to do the parking, never rush because there’s no time limit. On the intersection, in case you have to make a left turn, always let the pedestrian cross fully even if you think he is far enough and it’s ok for you to cross, don’t move. Let the pedestrian be full on the side walk. I failed because of this as I thought he was close to stepping on the side walk. The instruction will usually ask you to take left from the test centre and a lot of people fail over there because they don’t stop fully and check properly for any incoming cars. I would say go one day and practice on the route. Go on Lesley and stock house road and Gorham and in the residential area near Leslie. Good luck for the test.

    For anyone who is wondering this is still the route they take as of January 5th, 2024. Additionally, I didn't have to parallel park because there were no cars to parallel park behind so just hope there wont be a car on that same road.

    Hello there - wondering if the examiner kept moving inside the car during the test? I was quite panic during the test and felt so scared every move the examiner did. 🥺

    Hi! Quick question - so in the video the examiner didn’t specify to switch to the right lane (both times)..is that something we need to do automatically?

  • @jt279

    @jt279

    11 ай бұрын

    Yes. After a left turn, if there is a slow lane available, you should change lane to the slow lane without being prompted, if the examiner does not say to stay in the left (passing) lane.

    The left lane is most likely going to be a "fast" lane so they just don't want student drivers to be in the fast lanes. On your test move out of the left lane after a left turn.

    i have a camera in the back of my car when reversing can i use it?

  • @jt279

    First of all, I'm not a professional driving instructor, so please take this advice as a suggestion only. I would check the mirrors & rear windshield first, then use the rear camera (especially if you have the rear cross-traffic monitor feature) to make sure no traffic/obstacles emerges behind your car as you reverse. If you plan to use the camera, remember to clean it first prior to the test. Update: I stand corrected; according to the Ontario.ca website it says "Electronic driving aids such as automatic parallel-parking systems, lane monitoring, cruise control, and back cameras may not be used during the road test.

    No need to turn on the parking lights or the emergency 4-way flash, but you do need to put the transmission into Park mode. Like the other poster said, turn the wheel to the right if it's a downhill park with curb. But for uphill curb park, turn the wheel to the left. Also remember to signal, shoulder check & check your mirrors when resuming your drive.

    Hi, I'm the parent of the young man who took the test. We went driving every single day for about 3 weeks which resulted in a huge improvement in his skills, as well as expanded his experience in different driving situations. Also, go to the Drive Test location (around the time of your test if possible) & be familiar with the roads & speed maximums there. Other potential routes include: 1) instead of turning left onto Crowder Blvd, proceed straight and make a right turn onto Carlson Dr, followed by a left onto Sparrow Rd; 2) the examiner may chose to head north on Leslie St (from either Gorham or Stackhouse) then left at the lights onto Davis Dr, followed by a turn right onto Ashton Rd, and potentially another right onto Rutledge Ave. I would also make sure you practice the 3 items (park on roadside /w slope, parallel parking, 3 point turn) well, lane changes, and of course general back-in & front-in parking. Good luck!

    Can you pls tell me the speed limit in each road except the main road is 60 is everything other road 40 ?

    I've added the speed limits in the description. Leslie St is 60 km/h, the side roads around the Drive Test Center are 50 km/h, Gorham St is 50 km/h, but Crowder Blvd is 40 km/h. Some GPS apps will also indicate the speed limit of the street you are on.
