How well do you score??

[Randy Whorewald]

Studies show that 1 of 11 drivers cannot score more
than 70% on the GMAC drivers test.

my results:


National Drivers Test - Results
Your score was: 100%
A score of 70% or better is considered passing on a state written drivers test. The correct answers are highlighted below.

[xoxo Amie]

maybe I should finally write my learners

& learn how to drive...

Your score was: 80%

 

[Airwreck]

85%. Eh, I don't have a car any more (for the past six years since moving to Vancouver).

 

[maxx50]

as long as there is road

i only got 95% .. because i did not know my lane ended ahead
I hate it when i run out of road... that is why I have a.. 4X4

 

[gravitas]

100%, I'd have been disapointed with anything less

Agreed - but you'd be surprised at how many folks don't do as well.

Unfortunately I'm not surprised. Given how daft some people are what I am surprised about is that we don't have more carnage on the streets.

 

[athaire]

[wolverine]

90% - I got questions 6 and 14 wrong.

yet i kinda agree with hamsuplo,
this written stuff don't mean much, although some of the Qs here are quite practical...

 

[Mr.O]

Nerd!

this dont mean crapola.
i knew a guy got 100% on his driving test (written AND road)
this guys the worst driver ever.
he gets honked at all the time

Be honest, that guy is a NERD!

That's probably half the reason he's getting honked at.

So Maxx , you must live by the "Right of Weight " rule too. Nothin better than 8,000 pounds of steel under your ass.

Yikes

Either I am the worst driver on here or the other Perb members are chicken to post.
I got 75%

Was with friends just last week talking about how we would do writing and re-doing our drivers test. I think I'll go out and by a manual to refresh my understanding.

I drive a lot for my job so this is important in my mind.

G.A.

95%. I got the question about waiting for cars before left turn wrong. I chose dangerously close cars. Waiting until every car you can see has passed before making a left turn is insane. You'd have drivers honking and never get anywhere on time in this city.

I received 90%. I did not know highways were most slippery when rain had fallen after a dry spell (in Manitoba it's most slippery in the -1 to +1 temp. range) and apparently I'm apt to run down pedestrians. My ode to Darwin perhaps.

I got 100% too whew...I too would have been dissapointed with less since I bitch about other drivers so much

I received 90%. I did not know highways were most slippery when rain had fallen after a dry spell (in Manitoba it's most slippery in the -1 to +1 temp. range) and apparently I'm apt to run down pedestrians. My ode to Darwin perhaps.

The reason for slippery when it starts to rain after a dry spell is because of all the pollutants on the asphalt from the cars exhaust, oil drippings and rubber from the tires.

And you are right in winter the -1 +1 range is a very slippery time. You would also know that at -20 snow covered roads have pretty darn good traction.

I grew up in northern Alta. and in the winter, nothing is prettier then driving at night with -20C temps or lower, with the frost on the trees and the northern lights dancing in the sky....

75%, but question 7 is illogical. Traffic in any good-sized city would never move if someone turning left waited for EVERY vehicle to pass before turning. It's also pretty obvious pedestrians in Vancouver believe they have the right to cross anywhere, any time. Who needs to wait for corners or lights?

Welcome to the wonderful world of standardized testing where logic need not apply.

90%, I got number 7 wrong too, who in the hell waits for every vehicle to pass before making a left hand turn, I wait for a big enough gap that I can get through without getting smucked by the oncoming traffic. I also got number 4 wrong, I knew it was either a or b I figured they'd want you changing lanes carefully.
