Tractor and Trailer for Road Test - Manitoba

I understand that they need to keep tabs on the time taken (mostly for keeping to their schedules), but not to the point that you fail if you exceed it; doing the test correctly should far outweigh doing it fast.

 

That’s your call to make. Understand, if you go to another province to get your licence but live in Manitoba, your licence will be revoked until you retest in Manitoba.

 

Also remember EVERY province is cracking down more on what they pass in the cdl test .. in a few years it sounds like a lot of provinces will have much stricter rules on getting a cdl

 

They should retest everyone who has gotten one from the license mills. Every driver those SOBS turned out
I know locally its not a easy road test because the driver has to enter and exit a very tight strip mall, no curb scuffing'!

 

I cant remember the route but it included Nairn which is a good test of a newbie in traffic.. mind you that was decades ago lol

 

Use to be. They moved the testing to the new testing center on gateway several years ago. Not sure what the route is now. Funny story.... the instructor took me on the narin route backwards, which involved blind corners and some risky manoeuvres. When he realized what he did, he just said, do what you have to do to get back. And I did.

 

If the said "school" is as bad as you say, by wasting tax-payers money and setting you up to fail... don't you think that's worth reporting to your Legislative Representative? A scam is a scam, regardless if it's Provincially funded. If you can prove you were "taught" below standards, contributing to your failure, then the proper people need to be informed. If not for yourself, do it for the next victim that attends that "school".

 

I know certain schools are doing the rounds ..by visiting rural companies and telling them .."if you want to employ someone as a driver after getting their licence the gov pays for their licence at no cost to you" I heard the spiel when I was in the shop one afternoon...…………...professional driving school was well worth the money 12 yrs ago did the 6 week course to get log book ready ,etc...had picked up a lot o bad habits from 27yrs trucking in Scotland.
