Welcome to Driving School WA tutorials. In this video, I'm revealing the top five elements that
the driving test examiners don't like. Number five on my list is unnecessary and unrelated
questions that the candidate would potentially ask the assessor. For example, if they're walking
towards the car after completing the paperwork necessary to start the driving assessment,
candidates sometimes ask questions such as how many fails did you have today or how many passes.
So please avoid questions of that nature because this is not a percentage game it's really you
need to meet the standard in order to pass the test. So they don't need to reach some
certain percentage to satisfy the guidelines of the Department of Transport. Please avoid
questions of that nature you can have a chat about something else whatever it might be the weather or
you know the car that's parked next to your car whatever it might be but avoid asking anything
about passes and fails. Number four on this list is incomplete logbook or missing signatures
sometimes even leaving the logbook in the car and potentially even your ID such as learner's permit
in the car so bring everything with you make sure everything's ready to be viewed by the assessor
and have it with you. When you sit in a car don't put anything on the dashboard put everything in
the back seat or the door pockets. Number three is a candidate forgets where they're parked
so when you get out of the licensing centre office with the assessor you really need to
know where you parked your car. A lot of times we hear stories that the person who's going for
the driving assessment simply forgot where they're parked. So we strongly recommend that you take a
note of something that's easily identifiable such as a you know a light pole or whatever it might be
even even the registration of your vehicle would be the most helpful because you can't miss it.
If you don't see it as you first walk out we understand that you might be a little bit nervous
you can simply press the button on the key and hopefully, you will see the lights flashing once
you press it or if there's a sound associated with the uh your central locking system. Number two on
my list is contradicting assessors comments. So just be polite let them finish and if you
disagree tell them your side of the story and what you intercepted you can tell them nicely
politely without jumping in you know cutting in when they're speaking. Also, avoid walking away
without even hearing what they have to say that's really rude and you know it's just absolutely not
necessary. A lot of times we see people just you know take the assessment sheet scrunch it throw it
away and just walk away. So avoid doing that just hear them out if you don't agree if you'd like
to put in a complaint you're more than welcome to sooner the better try to do it as soon as possible
because there's a voice recorder in the system that they use and there's also GPS coordinates.
Number one item that most assessors don't like on my list is when you turn up with the car that's
filthy especially the interior so you know try to make sure that you clean up your car
if you're using a private vehicle or if you're using driving schools just obviously remind the
um the instructor to give it a splash you know to clean the windows properly and certainly to
clean the interior and eliminate any bad smells or anything that can make the assessor uncomfortable.
Have your documents with you, clean your car up, don't ask unrelated questions at all, make
sure you remember where you parked your car, and don't contradict assessors when they're speaking
to you. Thanks for watching, plan your test in advance and we'll see you in the next video
