Absolutely appauled at the behaviour of the staff at this location. My partner, who holds a drivers lisence in the EU, was required to take a driving test to switch to a Canadian lisence. He has been driving for 14 years with not so much as a speeding ticket. He has failed his test twice, the first time, the woman gave feedback that was incorrect (and illegal) by telling him to go into a right lane on a left hand turn when he (correctly) turned into the left lane. He was also informed he drove 4km/h under the speed limit, and then stopped in the road for pedestrians (she informed him he should have stopped sooner, despite them coming out from behind a car) which she told him was ultimately why he failed. The second time, he was yelled at because the examiner believed he didn't have enough room to get around a vehicle when pulling out after paralel parking, and was ultimately failed for not shoulder checking enough. I was not in the vehicle so I can't testify to this, but she told him "we actually have laws in this country" when he asked for feedback and was simply told he had "very bad habits". I fail to understand how someone with a 14 year clean driving record, no speeding tickets, no traffic violations, and has driven in multiple countries in Europe, can have such trouble passing a driving test, and the feedback provided does not make sense. Even if he deserved the fail, to speak to someone that way is absolutely unacceptable. Reading through other reviews, there seems to be a systemic problem here, and that is exasperated when the testee is a foreigner. If you are able, save your money and sanity and go somewhere else.
