Youtuber since about 2009 with Ghetto Cookin as a fun show, I wanted to continue and make more vlogs and fun videos of my life and things that I found amusing and then be able to look back and connect with people. I hope to inspire, cheer or encourage someone out there.. :)

How I Failed & Passed My Road Test
**This pertains mostly to people who live in Canada BC and have dealt with ICBC to do their road test**
This was my attempt at getting my FULL license, as there are 3 steps in order to get it.
First you have to take a computer test and answer all the questions correctly in order to pass it and get your L (Learner's license) which then allows you to start practicing your driving with someone (as long as the person is over age 25 and has their full license).
Secondly, you will try to get tested after about 1 year to get you N (Novice license class 7) and that will allow you to drive alone but you cannot drive with more than 1 person unless they are immediate family.
In order to get your full license, You have to have a clean driving record of 2 years+ you cannot have any outstanding tickets or have any accidents at fault.
The test for the FULL license is similar to that of the N, but it depends what the instructor (testing person) will ask of you to do. Some might ask you to drive on the high way, but some might not take you there... I've noticed that they will mostly keep you close to the ICBC station if in case you fail, but it depends on their route. Everyone is given a random route area and will be tested on all the aspects of driving.
I have noticed that the main thing people are likely to fail in is:
1. Speed or maintenance of proper speed
2. Signal & Shoulder check (either or both)
3. Coming to a full stop for 2 seconds time at stop signs and intersections.
4. Observation and not noticing their surrounding area
5. Driving maneuvers in general.
Practice, practice and keep in practicing until you have a common feel for the car and you don't bump into anything.
The main point in driving is to get from one point to another without KILLING or Harming anyone. Therefore, pedestrians are #1 priority and you MUST be able to see them and be able to STOP at any given time. Always try to predict a situation before it happens and look well ahead of you and the car in front of you.
Thanks so much for watching my vlog and please Like and Subscribe if this helped you :)
I will make a mini vlog later on about how it's like to be tested and what is asked of you to do during an ICBC road test.. ;) Good luck to all new drivers!! Confidence is key!
