G2 Driving Test Experience in Brampton, Ontario, Canada

G2 Driving Test Experience at Brampton, Ontario, Canada

I had my G2 driving test yesterday at Brampton DriveTest Centre, Ontario. I was well prepared and have taken many practical driving lessons from a driving school. I have used the same driving school car for the test. I have reached Brampton test center about half an hour before the scheduled test time with my g1 license. The driving school teacher made me drive through the G2 test route and parked at one of the numbered spots.(noted slot number). I was bit nervous as everybody, driving teacher also accompanied and guided me.

There was big crowd of people in front of the center, but for road test no need to follow the queue. We just need to wait near the door and they will call when it is our turn. They called me at correct time, I needed to sanitize my hands (COVID protocol) and enter details on the kiosk inside. We need to enter

 1. driving license number

2. make of the car

3. colour of the car

4. car plate number 

5. parking spot number. 

Also the there were 2 question asked in kiosk,

1. Any vision problem?

2. Any medication?

A slip will be generated after providing the details and I am instructed to wait inside the car with the slip. A driving instructor came after some time. He told me to horn, put left and right indicator, etc. Then he got into the car and confirmed my license details again with his tablet. After verifying, he told me to take the car left when it is safe. I put indicator, checked mirrors and blind spot and moved carefully. Then followed 3-point turn and parallel parking. Road rote was similar to this video route - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GhVyRNO6HSM, (means took left from drive test center). There was no flashing speed signal as school was closed for vacation. Also did uphill parking and in the end forward parking. I made small mistakes like missing checking blindspots in some places, however I passed the test. The instructor was really good and helpful. 

After passing the test, I went again inside drive test centre for temporary g2 driving license. There was separate line for this. I got my upgraded driving license in 5-10 minutes. Overall process was smooth at Brampton DriveTest Center.
