Failed road test. Only have one more try. Demoralized right now

He needs her in the passenger seat or he can't legally operate the truck.

 

I just took my test, and my tester said he would not be telling me how to drive - read it off the official instructions he was giving me for the parameters of the test - , and he did not. So, her telling you to honk your horn was wrong to start with. Then, he was cool, calm and collected, and very professional. That's her strike 2, in yelling at you to honk again, and screaming at him to get out of the road. The, she added to the problem by telling you how to drive, and doing it in an unprofessional manner.
Now, many of us fail the driving test the first time, so don't let that get you down. You'll get it just fine on the next try. No, that person should not be an examiner for the state. If you reported her to the state, she'd have her permissions revoked, and the school would be out a 3rd party tester. But don't be worried if they make you take it again, just do not take it with her. Ask for a different tester, or for them to take you to the dmv for a state examiner if they don't have another one. My school had 3.

 

Remember being a newbie man. Back when these trucks were huge compared to anything you ever had ever driven.

As much as we as driver need to be and act like professionals, someone employed by the state as an instructor should be held to the same if not a higher standard.

These trucks were so intimidating back then. Yea now i think of a truck as big pick up. Back then not so much

 

Yup I get your point. My point is life ain't always fair. It is what it is? Deal with it!! (I can rememer many many times growing up. Guys named Leroy or melvin had to score perfect to pass. But guys named Lawrence or mark got multiple chances. So fatty patty went over board. TFB what ya gonna do if your driving solo in nyc and someone yells at ya?

 

That’s true but it is still his right to tell her to get out of the truck if she is a problem. He can park the truck at the nearest parking lot and call the company to get someone else out there to help.

 

Que @TripleSix to say:

“Luck in battle”

 

OK not to say someone is lying but I will say that the company has an obligation here, if you failed on your own accord, then I can see it as a failure but the examiner is the cause of it from what I see. The DMV doesn't have the rule how many times you can take a test, the company does and I think that's where the problem is.

IF you fail this time, I would serious consider getting a lawyer and having the contract nullified where you owe nothing, and if you paid, it is refunded in full because of the incident. Her actions by her admittance was uncalled for, and her actions of getting out of the seat is really against those policies for all DMVs.

 

I stalled the truck twice and I was pass by my road tester, a nice old man very relaxed and easy to be around. He even gave me cough drops and a bottle of water because I had a cold at the time I was testing. He said I didn't impede traffic so no harm no foul on the stalling. He also said he could tell that I can drive, the clutch just takes practice.

If it doesn't work out, head over to a better company.
