Im pretty confident in driving abilities for taking the test this week with nearly two months of driving with someone else. My only real issue with taking my drivers test is that its my understanding sometimes DMVs have a secret everyone fails once policy, or some instructors do. I’m mainly wondering on average in the US low long did people have to wait.
Literally never heard this. I passed on my first attempt. Only missed one point for not merging all the way into the bike lane when turning right.
Though if possible, I would talk to people who have taken the test at the exact DMV and ask if there are any gotchas. The DMV I took mine at had a nasty curb on the driveway while turning in that many people would hit on the way in and autofail at the very end. I had more than one person give me a heads up about it before my test, so I practiced it on my own first.
Its not official, but some instructors and some DMVs kinda do this on the downlow. Ive heard cases of it on Reddit
Nope, I heard the same rumor in highschool and it’s just bullshit spread by people that can’t accept that they missed stuff while driving. If you failed, it’s because you missed things, they don’t get anything out of failing you.
There are some things that are automatic fails in some states (not checking blind spots, disobeying a traffic sign, 10mph over/under speed limit, and hitting something are all automatic fails in California at least) so that could be it, or you just messed up enough things while doing the initial check or while driving.
At least in California, I think it’s 2 weeks between retaking written or road tests. If you fail a second time, try asking the evaluator what you messed up on so you can improve. Everything is marked in points, so it’s not just an arbitrary “yeah they drove alright and I like them, passed”, they can tell you specifics of what points you missed
I’ve also heard on reddit that giving cats scratches is like torture to them and they hate it. People on reddit (and most of the internet as well) are morons. Including me. Don’t listen to anything they say, but definitely, definitely don’t listen to anything I say.
