Current Events > I really want my g2

(+) Yeah! (+)

I passed young drivers of canada. in 2020. I tried 2 times. And I'm scared I fail again because the pass rate in toronto is 40%.

What's a g2

In Canada, there is a, graduated licensing system. For driving you know cars. ....And failure rates are really high.
It's not tough; like what you read about happening in China. However it's quite concerning.

TC means Ontario. Not Canada. It's not called G2 in a lot of other provinces.

Failure rates are 60%?

Hmmmm
According to this CBC article, It's a 70% pass rate

One of the biggest issues in failing your G2 can be summed up as not checking your mirrors/blind spots/etc... obviously enough, and therefore losing points for it. It only takes like 5 points off to fail, so it's an easy way people lose out.

Go to your next test with a baseball cap, or if you have long enough hair, tied up in like a ponytail.

Otherwise, it's not really something to get that worried over. Practice your parallel parking and your three point turns, make sure to turn the wheels "uphill" and put the parking brake on when you stop, etc...

It varies from place to place - I imagine in a place like Toronto where there would be a lot more people to deal with could be more stressful. Heck, tests wildly varying site to site is what this articles is about.

I knew Canadians couldn't drive

I had to Google it. It sounds kind of like the provisional license process here in the US.

Anyway, good luck TC. It's stressful when you're first learning to drive, but you can do it

thank you for the suggestion

So logically why does the tc not go to an easier area to drive, like Barrie? We are saying the same thing here

But was my test rigged; because everytime I look for road test results with my drivers license number the road test results don't come back.
There's an error message that comes up everytime I ask. I've never asked for my results in person though. When I asked the examiner he said he didn't have any time both times.
