Today, I gave my second attempt at the G2 Road test here in Ontario, Canada. And I failed again. :(
The first time I gave my test, I was really nervous and anxious and made some silly mistakes. The examiner seemed not in a great mood from the very beginning. But the biggest mistake I made was because I missed a stop sign. A van was sorta obstructing it when I was approaching it but failed to notice the sign when I reached there and well, I failed my test.
Today, I gave my second attempt. I made sure I was calm and relaxed. Drove well before the test. I thought I drove well and safe even during the test. I did fuck up a little in reverse parking but I had to adjust that a couple times. But the examiner failed me because he thought I wasn't observing much while taking turns. He also said I was straddling lanes on unmarked roadways. For observation, I signalled, looked every time around, checked my blind spots and took a turn or changes lanes only when safe. He even told me I checked my blindspots all the time. But he said I failed to observe while leaving. I have no idea because I thought I checked every single time.
I don't have a family car, don't know any friends with a car so I cannot really practice other than the lessons I take with a driving instructor. I gave my road tests twice in the last one month and have spent a total of $1120 CAD. And I still don't have a license. 😣
I am not a bad driver, I drive really well and my instructor says that too. I just don't know why my tests are always fucked up. I am just so disappointed in myself and feel so bad. I feel like I may not be a good driver. I desperately need to get a license and a car because my husband and I don't have a family or friends here. We totally rely only on public transit and that most times can be really inconvenient. Just so many times we stay home depressed because it's fucking expensive to take an Uber or just too time consuming and exhausting to take the public transit. My instructor said that maybe you should have your husband take the test first now. Looks like he gave up on me too.
Please cheer me! Last two days have been bad. My husband lost out on a job opportunity too. We were really looking forward to both the things but unfortunately, didn't work out. Feel so low.

Maybe you shouldn't take it too seriously when you're driving for the test. Keep the tension low. Do it like you normally do. Don't think about it too much. Goodluck! You can do it! May all goes well for both of you
Replyyou are a strong person. you should be proud of how far you've come with your driving, and to be honest, if the only time you get driving practice is with an instructor and you STILL got that far, you're a pretty damn good driver! bravo! you will get it!
the more you take this test, the better you become.
i hope that your husband will get the job he needs, and i have every confidence in his (and your) success.
keep up the good work, sir/madam/mx!
ReplyHey take it from me (FAILED 3x, passed the 4th) it all depends on the EXAMINER. I kept failing for stupid little things and thought there was some thing wrong with me, but the 4th time I took it I got a different examiner who passed me like no problem. I realized my driving was exactly the same all 4 times but it's just that I had jerks in a bad mood the first 3 times. The last instructor just told me to relax and take my time which I did just like all the others, and she was like great no problem you passed. Don't give up hope, it's not you it's them.
ReplyHey it's ok. You'll get it. It took me to like my 3rd try. I believe in you.
