You should be able to report rude and condescending examiners. Not fair to the person taking the test.
I feel bad for people that have mean and rude examiners. Whether you want to believe it or not they really can influence your performance. My examiner seemed scary at first but he turned out to be really cool once things got going. Good luck to anyone taking their test soon and try your best to not let the examiner get too you one way or another.
Yup it 100% influences your test it’s terrifying when they’re mean.
There was no reason for that tester to be so rude‼️Very sad‼️
Yeah mine was that way too😭 he seemed mean but he turned out to be super nice !
Took mine today and failed. From the moment he walked up, I could already tell he’d be rude. I was already nervous. I didn’t need the extra salt😢
@AliJoanPlans I had one, and a few years later, my sister had the same one.
He failed us both.
you tell me you're not gonna repeat yourself, no talking & im not allowed to ask questions if im behind the wheel i should be allowed to ask all the questions i need for your and my safety. She definitely is having a bad day or something
That examiner should not be an examiner. He slowed and cleared the people in the road. What else was he supposed to do? Examiner is burned out at her job, time for her to move on to something else.
She sounds miserable
Yeah she was extremely rude. That was a weird situation and I can understand if the driver didn’t pass but she could have just calmly explained why and encouraged him to practice and try again. “Do you think I should tell you how to drive?” “How can I give you a license if you drive like that?” There was no need for all of that. Reminds me of rude customers I have who just keep talking trying to explain why they’re so reasonable when they’re just being assholes.
customers are on9s
DMV needed and should be required to put a camera and voice recorder in all driving test to catch the bad examiners from bias and unfair judgment.
took my test today and in my state you take your test with your parent in the car and an examiner watching you on the camera they put inside the car while instructing you on the phone. the camera malfunctioned after the parking portion and i had to have my instructor come inside for the road portion. driving with a parent in the car is definitely more relaxing, i passed
i talked during my whole test i was so nervous i chatted up a storm but the lady was so nice and told me she loved how i felt confident w her
Idk but just havi g someone who's chill makes it so easier to focus. Kinda calms the nerves ig
Idk how u are able to chat a lot while driving. It’s too much to multitask! I just got off my Ls today. The most I can do is small or minimal talk bc I’m too focused on driving or concentrating on it
@@Berry-Xd i tried distracting my heart pouding 😭 so i was talking way too much but the dmv lady said she likes when the people talk with her because she says the silence is so awkward
@@danielsancheez I think it’s a good skill to have - being able to talk while driving. Maybe I’ll get better at it too. I think during my test I just had the radio playing as background noise but I don’t remember hearing it bc I was way too focused on driving🤣
I had a super rude examiner during my test, he grilled me for a wide turn saying how he was almost going to interfere, then walked out without a congrats and ignored me when I said thank you. It just made me very insecure to drive for a while. People are going to make mistakes on their driving test, it’s a given.
It’s unfortunate but some driving examiners let their job title get to their head‼️moreover,that’s not acceptable at all.👉🏻The same way the Examiners are observing new student’s driving skills their should be another person in the vehicle to observe the driving examiners’s behavior and score him/her on their communication skills ‼️That examiner was on an EGO trip back to the DMV Office 👉The Student should’ve dropped the examiner off at the nearest unemployment office and when the examiner ask what‼️❓Did I pass❓The student should of stated to the examiner Do you think you passed your so rude rude rude‼️
Mine asked me if I even speak English
@@charlesgerety1403that’s crazy 💀
bro he was nowhere close to the people
If I had an instructor tell me not to speak or ask questions, and said they wouldn't repeat themselves, I would have stopped right then and come back another day. Or requested a different person.
how would you go about requesting another examiner?
I would probably reschedule the test and try requesting to NOT have that specific instructor. I've never had a driving test so I don't really know if they would honor something like that. I would at least report her though.@jujuuusshouse
I would probably go to a different testing center next time to avoid getting her again if it were me.
aw i feel so bad for him. he did not deserve to be treated like that by the examiner. super unprofessional of her!!
Poor dudes anxiety must’ve spiked even more after the test. Some people just shouldn’t be driving instructors. Yelling, being rude and condescending can cause newer drivers to make more errors. My mom did the same to me when she taught me to drive.
Recently my dad just screamed and yelled at me in PUBLIC at a gas station. He wanted me to keep driving after he forced me to pull into the gas station bc of a little acceleration (naturally) at a curve even though I drive safe like 98% of the time. Just got my license YESTERDAY. But after he degraded me in public I felt like never driving with him again. I’d rather illegally drive alone… was crying silently in the car while a few people passed me by as I sat in the drivers seat and waited for him to drive instead. For a whole 30 mins
@@tiredoftheworld4834thats so awful, im sorry:(.
With a negative person like this lady, there is no winning. If he would’ve moved more towards the left, she would’ve said he could’ve caused an accident if a car pulled in. She needs to be replaced with someone who is more rational, the last thing student drivers need is more stress to the situation
She could be having a bad day.
BUT, Even with with that, she doesn't have the right to talk to someone as if she's speaking to a child. In jobs likes this, you need someone who is patient. Not someone who is going to talk down on you.
@@gorile6944she was in the right to explain what the driver was doing was wrong, but she didn’t have to be so rude about it!
The way she could have gone about it is by telling him his errors, for example: when you drove by the Pedestrians I noticed you drove very close to them. Did you notice? If so, I like you know that I have failed you for safety concerns. I also noticed that in the beginning of the test you turned a bit into the other lane. Next time you retake the driver test keep that in mind. Have a good rest of your day.
There was no need for her to lecture him in that tone because she is not his mother. She’s there to observer his driving skill to see if he should obtain a DL. She was not there to parent anybody. Very unprofessional.
In the Netherlands I failed the test a few times. The examiner told me exactly where I failed. But sometimes I noticed it myself afterwards. I told the examinor: "Yes, I remember that I made that mistake."
On the test that I passed, the examiner didn't say anything about driving itself, gave me a hand and congratulated me with having passed the test. The driving instructor was behind me and the examinor on the backseat, and told me that I made two small errors. They were not critical.
I was super nervous for my test and had a lot of drivers anxiety at first but just prayed a lot beforehand and asked that God would take away my nerves and he did! My instructor was very friendly and I passed first try.
That’s amazing!!!
@T0e-Man God did do that, usually when I don't pray I still get nervous even after
Salute to his patience and courage, that lady was ready to fight and make a drama, but the guy respectfully and politely accepted everything.
Could she get fired for all the mistakes she made as an instructor?
shes power tripping, this is why its crucial you have examiners that have more compassion and actual give this man a chance. a nasty women period
It doesn’t even seem like she has a nice attitude from the beginning.
She is a B
If you’re going to fall the student just fail the student without a lecture‼️He’s not your son‼️
It should be prohibited to stop near intersections, because it blocks vehicles traffic and it was potentially dangerous.
I took my test here and when I passed my test my examiner didn't even let me know that I passed right away. The first thing she did was say her critiques and one complaint that I have with her is that she was mad at me for making a right turn. The light was red and I stopped before inching forward a bit and the light immediately went green. I saw that as soon as the light went green and i took my right turn. She said that if the light would not have turned green I would have failed. I still do not understand it to this day. I tried explaining that I thought it was okay for people to make a right turn on a red light since it is allowed and she dead ass said "people drive while being on their phones, you think that's okay?". She literally compared something legal to something that is not legal. ooo I was also running on 0 hours of sleep when I took my test! GOATED!
weird she said that if the light wouldn't have turned green because it literally did so who cares, plus like you said right on reds are legal and if anything people here in ca get super mad if you don't go right on red lmao
She sounds sarcastic
This is what's so wrong with our test. You are at the mercy of someone's opinions of the road. Around where I am in NY, we had a test that had lights, when I first took it I had a van beeping at me, I didn't want to turn right on red since some examiners fail you for that or some feel it was a risky move for a beginner to do. The examiner starting laughing as the a-hole was beeping and she basically made me feel stupid and yell at me the moment the light turned green and at the end critique and insulted me all over that and failed me for things that didn't make sense like she lied and put I mess up my three point even though I did it spotless same with my parallel basically she gave all the points to fail me b/c not turning at red isn't a illegal but maybe to them LOL.
If we had a public DMV youtube channel for each state like this where test are uploaded or allowed to be acesse I feel we would have a lot less nasty examiners... but at the same time we do need strict ones seeing how bad the drivers are around here in NY. At the end of the day just my opinion...
Sorry you had that, some examiners are nice but I do wish we held more accountable since I feel like every complaint is about them, but also sometimes they do the right thing and some people pass who really shouldn't IMO.
Had an examiner like this, I'm in the UK, and he was the most aggressive and condescending person I have ever me. Asked me if I knew how to turn the car on because I hadn't started the engine... BECAUSE HE TOLD ME NOT TO UNLESS ASKED. He then proceeded to sniffle and blow his nose the whole way round and just grumbling directions. Complained and it got no where but, I wasn't the only one who had issues. Mysteriously he was on leave for 3 weeks when I took my next test. Had a lovely woman that time, it was a delightful drive and she really cared for the students that were taking their tests.
That's nice am happy that your second try you found another good human being 🙏👏
I passed last week, instructor was awesome and helped me stay calm and I only made 4 errors, was a little nervous but did it on the first attempt!
Great job!
@@RoadTestSuccess thanks! It feels great to get my license and be a driver!!
Same I only made 3 but still passed thankfully
My examiner didn't like the fact that I was checking my side mirrors often when driving. Will never forget that lol
Why tf are they just parked that close to a stop sign. Also do they not hear the car coming? Can they not use there brains and close the door and move tf away. He should have came to a stop and honked to let them know
That's the only thing I could think of, stop and honk.
It was her fault for not giving CLEAR instructions and being RUDE from the start. He is the student, he's learning, she's the one who already know the rules.
Omg, I would not be able to control myself like ma'am i am NOT paying you to lecture me, im paying you to TEACH ME how to do this.
Also, the pedestrians in the middle of the street were at fault.
He’s not learning , that’s a road test not driving lesson and yes she was rude
Entire the fault of theidiots standing in the middle of the road and the rude, hysterical astoundingly unprofessional examiner.
Shocked that humans could stand almost in the middle of the road approaching an intersection!!
Most of the examiners are very mean as if they were not a student driver before. They want to be perfectionist as if they are really ver good
Watching these videos after I just passed my test is a different kind of feeling
I hope I’ll pass 😭
@@revolution545 you can do it! I know it’s easier said than be done, but don’t be nervous! Remember! Your just showing your instructor you can drive safely!
@@dain_rhee Thank you very much! I'm not worried about the minor errors, but the critical ones like this one. They seem so much harder to predict that they're coming. I just pray and hope I'll do my best lol.
Congrats - thanks for watching!
I just had a instructor fail me because she told me to speed up as I was entering the parking lot at the end. She wrote in the comment had to tell driver to speed up to avoid collision. No collision was going yo happen😂
My instructor was pretty chill and she wasn’t rude and she actually gave helpful tips to me. I’m sorry if your instructor obviously doesn’t care about their job
Life gotta be kickin her ass😂why she so mean bruh
Had her do it for me and she passed me
She obviously just wanted to get back to the DMV faster and didn't care about whether the student passed or failed. Any excuse to take him back to the DMV and she snatched it up like a snack in the DMV fridge.
I took my first DMV exam at this very location. The guy I had was rude. I failed for some odd reason. Took it at another location and passed. Do not come to Fontana for a dmv exam
I passed the first time at this one
@@suiomkyou said you also passed the Pomona one-
Bro wtf I mean yeah sure he got a little close to the workers but h can’t just block the other side of the road because if another car came in without paying attention then there would be an accident
EXACTLY I am just so pissed off at people thinking driving is 100% on your control ..... when it's really not
I passed my test 4 years ago, yet here I am still watching these videos. Also, with the most disrespect I sincerely hope this examiner hits every single red light :)
Thanks for watching!!
She probably sensed she was being a massive… then started talking sweet to him at the end “just make appointment and practice mijo 🥺” 😂
Why are the trash cans in the middle of the friggin road
Probably collection day.
Wow, what a waste of time for the driver.. that examiner was definitely stressing that day. Gotta feel for the guy.. could’ve told him on the spot what he should’ve done in that situation rather than waste his time and take him back to the DMV. I hope none of you new drivers that take the test have to deal with this.
I think I just got this exact examiner today she said the same thing about no talking during, she was so aggressive with my car and she slammed my door and had no respect for the inside of my car at all, who hires these people 😭😭
Did you pass?
@@lrfcarreviews2570 not with this one but there was an older one wearing sunglasses she was nice and I passed, I practiced a specific route every single day but when I did the test with her it was a completely different route but I still passed, just practice every day
@@Randze I took the test two times in my instructor’s car. Both examiners were nice. I auto-failed the first one for attempting to drive into oncoming traffic when I didn’t have the right-of-way so they had to step on the brakes. I then realized I wasn’t ready and practiced every day before my next attempt. I went back a month later, same location and passed with flying colors. The only mistakes I made for the 2nd attempt was being too far from the curb and excessive maneuvers for the parallel parking.
@@lrfcarreviews2570 ya it took me 3 tries, I still have that student driver sticker on my car more than a month later lol I'm never taking it off
I’m so glad I had a chill laid back instructor…didn’t speak not once…he was comfortable asffff
lucky asf. mine was rude and kept telling me everything i did wrong out loud it ,was so distracting and made me nervous
I had a few bad ones took me 6 times because of that they made me feel more nervous and that made me do stupid things. The last lady I had that I passed with was chill so chill it relaxed me. She talked to me about the weather about my day how my driving tests went. When I said it was my 6th try she said that’s okay don’t worry I got you. Just a completely different experience.
That examiner is awful, very rude tone and unprofessional. What I would have done is slow down and tapped my horn so the pedestrians are aware.
my examiner was chill bro, he took me around the block once or twice and passed me even though i turned into oncoming traffic
wait port union
that’s kinda crazy😭
I failed twice. My first one she is okay but im not really ready. My second she was sooooo rude that i got nervous. The third one he is super nice and he made me calm down so i passed.
And this is why I’d fail for giving attitude or smthn cause ain’t no one gonna talk down on me like that when I know my worth (Update:) I got my license 😎
The license of this examiner should be revoked. I bet, this is not the only driving student, whom this examiner is condescending to.
moving AWAY is definitely wrong as it's an undivided road with possible oncoming cars causing a head-on collison; either honk or stop or what the student did are all ok
me personally I would have stopped a few feet prior to the peds, if, there was a car turning into that lane, allowed them to pass and proceed. but either way, I feel that the driver was just taking caution, and understood that under no circumstances it was okay to proceed into oncoming lanes. maybe the instructor woke up on the wrong side of the bed.
I've passed my test today!!! I did watch a few of your videos!!!! Thank you!! I am in Indiana & the examiner said I did great!! even had an ambulance come up on me & immediately hazards on & on the shoulder..thanks all!!!!🤙🤙🙏🙏💯💯
Glad to help - Congrats!!
What bmv did you go too?
@@Tanu__kaur the Lafayette branch..some of the reviews were awful!!but my road test lady Rita was awesome!!!! I'll give you a hint..if you have practice & you're a good driver,ask if it's ok to talk to your self..lol before we left I said is it OK if I talk to myself?Shes like yup..then very softly she goes (most people that do that pass everytime)..👀 confidence & practice!!!!!l
@@thatrallycarguy thank you!
I live in indiana too but I had the same thing that happened to me when I took the test the first time their attitude was like that towards me
The tone of voice for the examiner wasn't helpful, from the beginning to the end. "Do you think I should tell you how to drive?"
I don’t understand why people have to stand so far into the road. They’re playing with fire.
Even if the person or anyone fails, they could handle it a different way. Like “I’m sorry but you didn’t pass the test, but I’ll offer you advice and tips to do better for the next appointment.” And no talking is so wrong like what if someone has a question like maybe during the test or before. I get working in the dmv can be very exhausting from another perspective but at least handle a better way.
I would love to see you guys become more active on here! I dropped out of High School and got my G.E.D. before finishing Drivers Ed classes. That was almost 7 years ago. In that window of time I moved from a small town in Illinois to The Big Heart and the roads here are terrifying, but I struggle here by not being able to drive. Coming across this channel has been so motivational and uplifting, and I feel the courage to finally get my foot in the door.
Glad to help - keep practicing and test with confidence!
Since this is a driving ‘exam’, I feel the examiner was unprofessional. She contradicts the notion that you’re supposed to be calm and respectful on the road even if another driver does something kinda stupid. But the test taker didn’t make a mistake big enough to warrant that kind of response imo. I can see where he could have felt confused in that situation, especially since he’s under enough pressure as it is. If he sped past those pedestrians I could see where the examiner could have gotten excited but he stayed cautious and took it slow even though he didn’t necessarily do the right response to that situation.
A parent or driving instructor should be the one issuing stern criticisms and not the person whose job is to just check boxes on a clipboard. You wouldn’t belittle a high school student for failing an exam. So the examiner should have stayed in her lane instead of giving him crap for staying in his lol
He didn’t deserve to fail at all
Thank God my examiner was sane and I took the test on a closed course. I can’t imagine what some of these people have to go through, both examiners and drivers
Pray I am can pass so I can drive to work and places as well. I been practicing driving almost a year . So I be practicing the route next week that I am not familiar route but I am going to A this Drive test
You got this!
Did you pass?
No not yet
The examiner part was honestly the most stressful part for me since most of them do tend to be rude, they apply more stricter rules to you and fail you in the end for the most minor shit. Fortunately enough, this wasnt the case for me and i had a really sweet lady who was the complete opposite of this instructors demeanor. She was very sweet and encouraging throughout the entire test, gave reminders when needed and allowed questions. Im not sure what the issue is with the attitude but it wasnt needed here, i feel bad
To be honest, you can't really expect any kindness from a DMV worker/examiner. They are all miserable.
yup. DMV is awful at it's job
My test is on Wednesday, very nervous!
Edit: I passed it! Was super stressed the entire way there, (took it on my birthday,) my cars never had any problems but I started it up and the tire pressure sign was on. got there and had a nice easy test.
Good luck!
@@RoadTestSuccess thanks! just fixed my twisted seatbelt the night before the test 😅 hope thats a good sign
Did you pass?
@@melmansfield2575 yep I did!
with my luck this is the type of examiner I'll get lol
😂😂
frr I'm done with this
I got her and passed with her
Yes, he was very close to those people, but to be fair he was able to get around them perfectly fine. He was nowhere near about to run into them, if he was the people would’ve been scared. 😂
The examiner was slightly unprofessional but she was correct. He should have slowed down, he was too close and he should have checked his mirrors and move to the left.
I don't agree that she would be correct. But the student did make the mistake. She could just say: "You drove too close to the pedestrians [What error did the student make?]. You should keep more distance [What behaviour do you expect from the student instead?]. Therefore you failed the test [The consequences of the error]." That's it. Nothing more to say. But she keeps on showing disrespect to the student. There is no need to do so.
@@HANSMKAMPthat would be considered a dangerous maneuver and an automatic fault (driving within 6 feet of a pedestrian)
No cause i just failed my exam because of a rude examiner. The mistake was definitely mine but keep in mind you go in already nervous and then the examiner is rude it just makes you mess up even more. It sucks but now that I know how they can be I’m going to try to pass my next exam .
I definitely think I would've slowed down and maybe even stopped. I'm not comfortable honking yet (still practicing driving) but my instinct would be to stop at least. It seems like a difficult situation if you are new to driving and ofc we all agree that those people were literally in the road for no reason, so I feel bad for the student happening to drive past people standing in the road, how unlucky
Not gonna lie as you get more experience you would most likely go around them especially if there just standing and not like moving across the street but yes new drivers would probably wait also use that horn if you did stop and they don’t move cars in the street pedestrians side walk
The dude didn’t even seem bothered by the car, he wasn’t in any way at danger… 🤦🏻♂️
Honestly why are these examiner even doing this job this make me feel not safe when driving just giving me that behavior i dont need some sort of emotion in the car i need logic sense not some behavior issues
This video is frustrating to watch, the examiner could’ve handled that better. I replayed the video a couple times. He did in fact move away from the pedestrians, if that were me I would’ve yield until they either got into the car or moved onto the sidewalk. It wouldn’t of been safe for him to move since you’re unaware if there’s going to a car coming in. Rather avoid a accident at all cost.
Those examiners need to have respect for these new drivers. The reason why some are rude is because they are nervous and because they have to determine if there life is jeopardy because these are new drivers especially the teen drivers.
First i would slow and stop and have them move why the hell they were chatting in the middle of the lane of traffic is beyond me
I think it was better if he slowed down, completely stopped, and waited until the pedestrian move out of the way, then he moved and passed a little bit taking a little space from the other lane. The examiner is not even competent. Besides, she is so rude!
I just passed but my examiner was acting like a cop knocking on my window telling me to roll it down then saying “license and 5 hour registration”. He then walked around and sat down and I asked “how was your day.” He made a noise. Then said begin and start driving. Bro wanted nothing else but to get it over with lmao
Congrats!
They do not tell you this but your examiner was 100% a robot, they're trying to cut down salaries
I’ll be taking my renewal test tomorrow. Although I’ve driven for over 60 hrs, I’m terrified, based on seeing many TH-cams of the driving test. It seems like getting a good examiner is based on blind luck.
4:55 - 5:09: I would have slowed down, way before the people, busy with the container. Then I can pass them, without scaring them. Immediately after the container I would drive very slowly and steer to the right, mayking space for cars that may want to enter this street.
5:40 This happened to me at Torrance. After the examiner grabbed the wheel after a failed left turn onto Denker, he shortened the test and had me resurface onto Denker Av via 215th, Harvard, and 216th as opposed to finishing the entire drive. On my first attempt at Hawthorne pre-COVID (Spring 2020), the examiner (at the El Segundo Bl office) surprisingly let me finish the entire drive (even going into the Fonthill neighborhood, which is north of the DMV) despite me forgetting to check my shoulder and mirror before merging past a row of cars turning right into the second batch of residential neighborhoods (Jefferson) in the first part of the test.
As a German driving instructor, I am really shocked how easy the driving test in the US is, and what this student did. I am speechless.
The driving tests in Western Europe are way harder than the DMV driving tests in the US. I think the tests in the UK, in the Netherlands and in Germany are very similar in difficulty.
She should have given him a warning and kept the test going.
Yes. In the Netherlands the test is always about 25 min. (at least I passed the test in 19890). If the student makes a mistake, the test continues, is not shortened. All tests are 25 min., regardless whether the student passed it or failed it.
In the US any intervention by the examiner is a critical fault
I passed my test a year ago and I got one of the worst examiners but luckily I passed. I can guarantee you that sometimes its the examiner's fault that you fail. Also I have been driving for a year and 70% of the stuff I don't even use and I still can drive safely. In fact doing all of these things can actually make others frustrated due to you being slow (this is a fact).
We need a serious change in the DPS system. The workers are underpaid ragecans, always forgetting documents before appointments and unnecessary bs that shouldn't be coming from GOVERNMENT INSTITUTIONS.
Other thing I realised: she asked him if it was his first time for test and he said yes. Was is it a red flag? Thinking he will not do good as it is the first time?
I would've called it a minor fault bc it was a tough situation. The thing is you can't swerve into the oncoming lane. If that car comes in, it causes an at fault wreck. That scenario would be a fail. I'd continue the test as normal and talk about it at the end.
personally wouldnt fail them for that. obviously they are gonna try avoid pedestrians all the time.
5:12 I would have stopped and gave a quick two honk so they can go on the sidewalk and let me pass.
I was lucky the my examiner from the DMV was very sweet and friendly with me. I had her twice for it. I did failed by couple of points. A month later that I did passed. We did talked to each other on the drive. I rather talk for any questions on the test. Now that I can drive now for a little bit over 24 years now. When I was living in Illinois going to the DMV the people that worked there were mean and rude. It is so different in Wisconsin.
This was clearly a bad examiner
Personally, if I ever encountered pedestrians in the road like this when I was practicing, I would either slow down, and wait for them to move aside.
They don't want to get hit either, and when they notice you, they usually get out of the way. You could also lightly tap your horn.
I think that would be the best way for him to have handled it but, I don't think she should have ended the test right then and there. I think it should have been a few points off, and let him continue the test and see how he did.
Unless you drive through the hood, you have to get out of their way or just wait until they feel like moving.
If you go over to the left from the pedestrians ,even a little, automatic fail for lane violation
Yeah but yielding to pedestrians always takes precedence. There are exceptions when it comes to pedestrian safety.
I live in residential area, and a lot of people are just driving around people. I'm not sure what will be the right way to do in this situation, there were no coming traffic, might be he could just go around them? more wider turn as he did. But this examiner is really rude.
She acted so very inappropriately. There's a way to respond and make it a teaching moment. She should be fired. It would take all my self discipline not to respond to her in kind.
I had that same thing happened to me with my first try I'm scared to even go take it again I mean I'm not the best at driving but she was just being rude just to be mean towards me
i hope i don't get an instructor like this when i take my road test
Actually, people may take different approaches to resolve this issue but I may go with yours which is slowing down even come to a complete stop if necessary just to let them know your intention. If not I may change to next lane while no other car coming towards me. If there is a car coming I might wait to let it pass and then I can proceed.
But they can still fail you for obstructing the road even if you stop and wait for the pedistrians. Sometimes it's a double edged sword and can be a bit hard to handle
I recently had a drivers behind the wheel exam today (10/27/23) and the instructor who i had been rude towards me from the very beginning. Once we begun everything ran smoothly, when we were about to leave an intersection within a small neighborhood; the instructor seemed to give me the eye look in seeing if I checked my meers and shoulders even tho I did he docked me off as a deduction even when it came to merging (I sped up and merged but still got docked). Till all of a sudden, the guy had decided to push on the brake hold of my electric hybrid vehicle to stop me in motion in the middle of a small passing road making me swerve in almost a jagged pace with cars driving past me and started to lash out at me in saying “WHY DID I HAVE TO PUT THE BRAKE ON YOU, WHY DID I HAVE TO PUT THE BRAKE ON YOUU!!!” basically scolding me meanwhile shaking in nervousness and not responding to his orders. We got back to a small parking spot in writing extra things down in saying “You are considered as an unsatisfactory driver, you were going over 10 miles above the speed limit and where not checking the mirrors & blindspots when turning at the right bikelane!!” *slams door hasrshly in front of my face in a hard way and leaves in saying, have a good day in a ignorant way*. know I am at fault for this which is understandable in correcting my mistakes , but nothing gets passed by me in not realizing the rudeness in this guys tone and how much anxiety i went through this test; thankfully retaking it on November 20th 2023.
I'm really sorry to hear that happened to you. I took my driving test today and I somehow passed with him being one of the worst examiners. FYI my teacher told me that this guy loves girls and hate guys because literally most of his female students passed and most of his male students failed. Also somehow he was feeling really stressed today. So literally during the first 5 minutes he yelled at me for yielding way too much of the oncoming traffic and I should just go, he literally did the thing where hes so disappointed and literally mumbled to himself :"why do they all do this". Then everything went well after that UNTIL I started parking. I parked kinda crooked and I had to reverse, at the point I felt super nervous and stressed because of him that I forget to look behind my shoulders. He yelled at me for that and at that point he saids:"look at what you have done" and aggressively check the paper at the part where its a pass or fail. I literally thought I failed, he lectured me for 5 minutes asking why I don't check my surroundings and stuff. But then as he finished he said:" you passed" then left. I am really glad that I don't have to do that shit all over again because that was very stressful omfg.
@@pumpkinut5314 I am also sorry you had a harsh experience with this examiner of yours and thankfully you had passed considering on how much anxiety you had went through. In fact, I didn’t get why he was basically scolding you when it came to yielding the right of way too much towards pedestrians as a matter fact you were doing the right thing although I could see both sides of the conflict. However when it came to your parking while in reverse I could also see your tension as well on how stressed you have been in which I had been the same as well expect I only had to park in a clear road which made it easier for me. I don’t know how you got passed through this without failing in fact is pretty impressive, congrats on this accomplishment of yours; I definitely don’t blame you on saying that you don’t want to go through this type of shit again in lowk is what is also going through my head rn the next time I go in a couple of weeks. I am still nervous considering I am getting located in a more traffic area but has smoother one-way roads and hopefully semi-nicer instructors!
@@ee-Mendoza actually my teacher drove me all the way to a different DMV because he said this part of the area is very open therefore it’s very easy to drive. Also good luck on your next test
@@pumpkinut5314 oh okay, this makes more sense now overall at least it had been an easy test for you since at times it depends on the area and mostly who you get/in other words it’s mostly luck. Therefore, thank you lots! rly do appreciate it from you
OMG! My examiner was soooo sweetheart!! With a soft relaxing voice, before we started, he asked me if I had any questions, I asked him what he calls the traffic lights(I'm an immigrant and got used to calling it " the traffic light"), and he said some different words! I asked him "pls when you use that word, say the traffic light for me!" lol He said " ok"
And said that it's easier for me to talk to myself sometimes when I'm driving, he said that I can do it!! Praise the Lord, there were no such pedestrians on my way! On the video, pedestrians were disrespectful to the driver! I'd drive as close as I can to them, lol ( not on the test)
Oh my!
Her behavior is scaring me.
she got family problem's for sure. I hope she got fired
I took it twice just a little bit over 25 years ago. I failed the first one by a couple of points in mid November 1999. I passed the 2nd on in mid December 1999. I had a sweet and friendly gal from the DMV that took me out in both times. I thought that I passed the first one since I drove pretty good on the test . I even had my 1st car back then,too. It was a 1998 Ford Contour SE in light denim blue. I got the car in mid October 1999.
Pomona DMV is the worst.
I took mine there
Took a test at Torrance on November 8, 2021. My examiner was rude as hell. When I greeted him, he told me to shut up. I failed when I made the left turn onto Denker Av, which narrowed when you drive north past the church and the car wash. What happened was when I was preparing to turn left onto Denker, I was not aware until then that Denker would be narrow driving north. I thought Denker would be fairly sized like on the opposite side where McDonald's and Circus Donuts are located. When turning onto Abalone to head back to the DMV, the examiner said it in a condescending tone. When I told him about how I would let my permit expire since it was almost a week and a half to the expiration date, the examiner rudely told me to try and schedule the next test by November 17, 2021. Plus, I tried to tell him about the routes that "Fullerton Sam" pirated in Spring 2021, but he cannot disclose the routes, otherwise he and the Torrance DMV would be sued.
My offer still stood. If I did not like it with Torrance, I can always try again at Hawthorne. The test in June 2022 ended up being my passing test after "self improvement [always] prevails".
