Question:
The exam is divided into three parts:
1) The pre-trip inspection
is conducted to determine whether the applicant knows how to inspect the vehicle to see if it is safe to drive. Drivers are asked to conduct a pre-trip inspection. The driver must explain to the examiner what is being inspected and why. Section 2.1 and Section 10 of this study guide explain the pre-trip inspection.
2) The basic control skills exam
evaluates a driver's ability to use basic skills to control the vehicle. Applicants complete exercises on a course marked by lines, traffic cones or similar boundaries. The exercises test the driver's ability to move the vehicle forward, backward and through turning movements. Drivers are scored on how well they stay within the boundaries.
3) The driving exam
tests the driver's ability to drive safely in a variety of on-road situations. The road test route may include left and right turns, intersections, railway crossings, curves, upgrades, downgrades, rural or semi-rural routes, multi-lane city streets and/or expressway driving.
