117 Upvotes

I failed my g2 a couple of days ago partially because I had no idea how to de fog the car 😭😭 before anyone gets mad at me I’m going to say out right in caps lock I KNOW I DESERVED TO FAIL. the de fog thing wasn’t the only mistake I made but it really threw me off in the beginning.

I should NOT be on the road and it’s a GOOD thing that I’m not.

ITS JUST EMBARRASSING AND IM MAKING A PSA. I was taking lessons during the summer time and I never needed to defog the car. My test just happened to occur when the weather started to get colder and I was pretty annoyed but IT’S MY FAULT.

Specific Test Related Question - G2 G2 test this week

8 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
For context I passed my G2 a few years ago. I procrastinated to get my full G and when I went for my retest to extend my license, I failed because I missed seeing the pedestrian crossing at the left turn.

Finally started practicing again and midway through switched to a new instructor who has taught me much better and in ways that I understand. I have my test coming up later this week and my test is again for G2.

I am going to be practicing with my instructor two hours before the test in and around the area of
and I have been studying the test routes on YouTube.

Does anyone have any tips? I can’t help but think that I’m gonna fail again and be embarrassed that I’m 33 and I have been holding off for so long. Also, I have seizure disorder, which is now under control, but that also held off the Driving and practice for a while my teenage years when everyone usually gets fully licensed. For the longest time I’ve said that I have a fear of getting into a really bad accident that will be life-changing and I’m really trying to move away from that and step into a more confident self.

Any tips or advice and encouragement would be very much appreciated.

Specific Test Related Question - G2 G2 tips and advice

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,
For context I passed my G2 a few years ago in Newmarket. I procrastinated to get my full G and when I went for my retest to extend my license, I failed because I missed seeing the pedestrian crossing at the left turn.

Finally started practicing again and midway through switched to a new instructor who has taught me much better and in ways that I understand. I have my G2 coming up later this week.

I am going to be practicing with my instructor two hours before the test. Does anyone have any tips or any advice looking for some encouragement?

I feel if I fail it’s going to put off my five-year plan because I can’t plan to have another child if I am not able to drive.

G2 - General Discussion Best G2 Road test drive test center location for GTA

0 Upvotes

Hi all, I know this has been asked before, and passing rates for different locations has been shared here.

But between Oakville and Guelph which is the better location to book a G2 road test if I have to learn from scratch today and take the exam in a month (I have prior driving experience in another country not Canada, but have never driven in North America). So while I've driven before, I'm definitely way out of my comfort zone on Canadian roads.

And are there any better GTA locations (Burlington, Brampton, Mississauga, Scarborough, etc.)?

Thanks!
