Driving Test Expectations

One of the best ways to reduce fear is knowing what to expect. This is very true when it comes to driving tests. Here is an article I wrote about this issue.

Guidelines on Passing Your Road Exam - What Should You Expect?

What can you expect on the day of your road test? What, exactly, will you be tested on? If you know what to expect, you'll be able to prepare more easily. Listening to your friends' horror stories probably isn't the best place to start. In fact, doing so will only serve to make you nervous.

The test is the last hurdle you will have to pass in order to get your driver's license. As nerve-wracking as this sounds, the fact of the matter is that it's just a test. Unlike a lot of other tests, you WILL be able to take it again if you fail. In fact, you can keep trying and trying until you finally pass. How many other tests are like that?

Here are some tips to help you get through the road exam:

• You need to make sure that you're using the right car! If you only have one vehicle available to you then have a professional come in and inspect it first. Make sure everything is working correctly so that you won't experience any problems during your driving practice.

• Learn how to signal properly. You will be tested on signaling in a variety of situations. You will need to signal as you first pull out at the start of the test. You'll need to signal to other drivers to let them know whenever you are going to change lanes or park.

• During the test, the examiner will tell you to do routine maneuvers such as merging with traffic and changing lanes. Be sure to look in the rear view mirror AND check over your shoulder. Even if you're certain that you can see the blind spot, you should still check over your shoulder. The examiner will take points off of your test if you don't.

• Remember to stay within the speed limit the whole time. It'll be your job to show the examiner that you are aware of the traffic conditions around you. Your eyes should be moving constantly. You should always know what is going on - not just in front of you, but on your sides and behind you as well.

• Another important factor of a road test is parallel parking. Traditionally, this is the most difficult thing to do. You can practice parallel parking by setting up boxes somewhere where there are no other cars. Keep practicing until you are pretty good at it, and then try parallel parking behind real vehicles. You should be able to do it easily before taking the test.

Hopefully, you now have an idea of what to expect during your road exam. Keep these tips in mind and you should do all right!
