I went to do my G1 exit test, and they were 30 minutes late to my time slot, which is fine as I understand that things fall behind sometimes, however not a great start considering there was zero communication and I waited almost an hour in my car since they make you check in 30 minutes prior. The instructor yelled at me during a left turn at an intersection, after I took control but could not proceed to turn before the light turned red as a pedestrian crossed unexpectedly. I understand why that warranted a fail however yelling at me was very uncalled for. He then proceeded to be rude the remainder of the drive and made me very uncomfortable. Like I said, I understand why I failed and that isn't why I'm leaving a bad review. It is entirely because of his attitude, tone of voice and honestly lack of compassion or understanding for how nervous I was after he yelled at me. I understand needing to intervene if dangerous, but there was no immediate threat and no reason to yell at me. Overall, I'm very disappointed with how I was treated today. A little kindness goes a long way! Read Less

The vehicle I used is an imported car with both miles/h and km/h on the speedometer. I specifically informed the examiner before the test that the larger outer numbers indicate miles/h, while the smaller inner numbers show km/h. If I drive at 40km/h, the speedometer will show approximately 20 miles/h. This does not mean that I drive too slow. The examiner told me she understood. However, during the test, the examiner repeatedly complained why I keep driving at 20-30, however my speed is 40-50.
My examiner was a blonde old lady. I heard that the examiners in Espanola was from the drive test in Sudbury. People in Sudbury keep complaining about blonde old lady as well. I doubted if I met the same difficult-to-get-along-with blonde female examiner today, but in fact, I don't have the chance to change the examiner, because this drive test center is very small, and there is only one examiner every day Read Less

Honest opinion the instructor was very rude scoffs at me multiple times. I get being strict but to laugh at someone trying to do their best on a test is kinda crazy. Anyway I waited in my car for almost 2 hours after my scheduled time, this is the second time the first test got canceled. Never even got an email. Don't recommend.. Read Less

Drive test centre is located nor far from highway, residential area and importantly close to school. Speed limit is 50kph when you exit from Drive test centre plaza and then they take you to residential area where speed signs are for 40kph. I noticed quite a few All way stops and a few Flashing yellow beacon. Highway speed was from 60 to 80kph max and single lane with no dividers.
Coming to Office staff and Examiner. Examiner was a very polite and humble lady and she explains very clearly what she will be looking for during the test. She was very patient & cool during the entire duration of the test. Drive test centre is quite small and the guy at the office was okay and he will get your work done. So overall it was good experience and easy test location and Traffic was not compared to GTA ;)
Good luck π€ Read Less
