TP test

it stopped raining the moment i got into the car with the tester.

my circuit was PERFECT. no points at all. when i was turning into a lane for narrow parking.. a guy was doing the parking so i stopped there. and i saw his wheel got closer and closer... and mount kerb. in my mind i was thinking 'oh haha fail liao'
-evils-

good thing my vertical parking was alright!!

on the road... i was on test route 9 bukit gombak there. everything was fine until i was going to turn right.. the lights turned amber and i still had 3m to go. i turned nevertheless and the tester told mi 'u must stop, amber light'. oh wells turn already.

everything was ok. he changed the test route to a simpler one, no u-turns all that juz plain driving. we were going to bbdc after a short drive, and i was turning in i felt quite excited coz everything was well.. then i accidentally stepped on the accelerater instead of the brake when turning in. oh dies. he steps on the tester's brake immediately. die. when tester steps on the brake or do anything: immediate failure.

results:
1 tick (6 points) fail to slow down when approaching road hazard
1 tick (2 points) fail to use appropriate gear
2 tick (2 + 2 points) wide turning
2 tick (2 + 2 points) sharp turn
1 tick (2 points) incorrect checking of blind spot/mirror
1 tick (2 points) fail to check mirror b4 moving off
2 tick (2 + 2 points) fail to check mirror b4 slowing down

total: 24 points
an accumulation of 20 points or more constitutes a failure.

BUT

6 points are ticks in the box. its doesn't count as a demerit point.. so...

18 points juz pass.

it's really luck. more birds more luck. (no link)

the tester was very very very nice. not those strict faced ones. from his tone u can tell. he din even fail me for the amber light! yay! and i din hafta do u-turns all that! and no rain!

i took 21 normal driving lessons, 2 autocar, 2 revision lessons.
total spent on BBDC: $1744.40.

ok dat's really a lot to give juz for a stupid card. seriously it's really expensive. u can go tour around japan or korea or a good shopping trip at hongkong with that. but no choice, that's the onli way to drive a car.

so yay passed on first time!
