I don't understand why passing you is so difficult. There are a ton of assholes on the road that do things that are actually dangerous like weaving continuously between lanes on the highway and cutting people off.

This guy sounds like a total douche and I can't believe you actually deigned to have him as your instructor again after he said you made 8 rolling stops last time or whatever.

Pretty much the same thing happened to me Groybc in my first driving test.

The tester shouted stop for no reason because I rolled forward 6 or so inches when a car was comming(obviously not going to fucking go..I was looking right at the car). I was actually just moving up slightly to see around this bush that was partially blocking the view of cars comming further down the road.

The instructor, being a paranoid fuck, freaks out and yells stop which is auto fail.

I passed with 100% the second try, but with a different tester.

The worst part of dealing with anything DMV is you can almost gurantee the employee will be stupid as shit(there are exceptions, but not many).
Being healthy, it has been said, really consists of having the same disease as everybody else.

he's in Kelowna which is the problem. I don't think there are any other places to take the test near him. I may be wrong. But in any case it doesn't matter since he can request a different instructor.

Maybe the guy is really worrysome and feels like he can't have it on his conscious to send you out with a driver's license knowing that if something happened to your or someone else because of it.
just kidding, fuck that guy.
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)

Basically this. I'm pretty sure this ICBC branch is the only place I can go for my license. I'm definitely going to request a different instructor next time and I bet you I'll pass easily.

Fuck the DOL is all I have to say. Good thing I don't have to take a drive test again until I'm senile.

I had an asshole my first time and failed, but the second time I had this really chill lady instructor and got like 100%. For my G, I just barely passed, but at least I got it in one shot.

Wow, I feel mad just reading what you wrote. I'm sorry that that had to happen to you. You should've switched instructors long ago haha.

Jesus, I feel so sorry for you. When I finished my driving test, the instructor listed off about 40 minor things I did wrong, and then passed me anyway.

edit: I wonder what the hell the pass rate is for that particular instructor. O.o Sounds fucking harsh.

most isntructors (atleast in Ontario) suck ballzzz. I know people that know people that have failed atleast 10 times before they got their liscence (even though they were doing everything perfectly).

Just request a different one next time, and go complain to the manager or what ever. The heads usually are sane (he will prolly get fired... imo he deserves it).

I wonder if anyone has ever tried to bribe a driving instructor, I mean if I was one, I would take like $100 or something and just pass someone. I've never heard of anyone doing it though

$70 so far. another 35 for the next one I go for, and then another 75 once I finally pass.

man, it all depends on who you have. I seriously thought I fucked up the road test for following reasons: 1.uphill parking stopped too far from curb; 2. took me several tries to adjust the car to get paralleling parking done right. 3. while I was checking left and right before a train track, the cars in front of me stopped suddenly, I had to slam on the breaks hard. At that point I thought I failed for sure. But when I pulled into the examination centre, the lady told me "congradulations, you passed; but it was close." I was like thank god, that was close shit. She said I need to pay more attention to surroundings and that was it. My driving school instructor booked the test for me and he knew her, I guess it was all worth the money I paid.

I don't know how stuff there works. But here in Brazil it's a very common thing to bribe, not the instructor, but someone from the inside to get you the license without even making the road test. Many of my friends done it and talk about with proud of how "smart" they are for doing so.

I got lucky when I done it myself. I got the instructor that was nicknamed "Santa Claus" by the others, because he would always approve anyone regardless of what they did. lol We were supposed to do some exercises on the streets and all. But he just told me to take one lap around the block and that's it. He approved me lol
Great people talk about ideas. Average people talk about things. Small people talk about other people.

you know what, you will definitely pass the G test, driving on highway is alot easier than driving in city, no stop signs; no left right turns; just maintain constant speed and distance and you will pass. The good part about the G test is that every time you make a mistake it is 1 point off, instead of of 2 or 4 points during the g2 test. I lost like 28 points in 8 minutes of g2 driving, almost failed; unfuckingbelievable.

That is really tough luck, I hope that when you pass the test you photocopy your paper and mail it to him.

Terrible luck. You got the one instructor who doesn't know what he's doing. FYL.
