TP practical test
today is D-Day!!! today is my 1st attempt at TP test and i so nervous about it... scared i cant pass sia plus tis morning raining so heavily lor...
left home at 8.20am to meet up my instructor to do warm-up inside the circuit and the main road... drive from 9.30am to 11.15am before taking a break... 11.30am went to the waiting room to wait for the tester to come and call our names and tell us which route we goin to take later... mine is route 8 lor and is a route with fewer cars and 1 of the easier routes lar... LUCKY!!! haha
so start of test le... start off smoothly lor... inside the circuit, start off with doing the slope parking lor but hai... when i stop, i forget to put back to gear 1 before moving off the slope and the car stalled and rolled backwards but lucky i stop it in time and do the remedy lor... at 1st i tot "oh no!! going to be not my day le" but heng sia after tt everything is smooth... did directional change, parallel parking, perpendicular turn, perpendicular parking, s turn after the slope and everything is smooth... YEA!!! so veri fast exit the circuit and go to the main road liaox... yippe... minus 6 points inside the circuit. after leaving the circuit, everything was smoothly until a junction where i brake too late but lucky got stop in time lar... and everything was ok and there are quite few cars on my test route lar... so happy and lucky cos like this easier to do overtaking, change lanes and can make lesser mistakes lor... haha...
next i was doin left turn at a junction lar... the signage says turn left on red, meaning u can turn left even tho the traffic light says red... i see the bus is coming veri slow and on it signal so i turn out left but who noes the bus come veri fast and nv turn so for tis mistake i was being minus 4 points for failure to check for traffic at junction... after this mistake, everything was veri veri smooth and the tester ask me to drive back to the driving centre le... follow him to the discussion room and he brief me on the mistakes tt i make lor... he say all are quite minor mistakes lar and tell me dun brake too late or turn too wide next time.. he oso ask me whether i noe my mistake tt i did at the left turn junction and the slope and i say i noe le... so after counting all the demerit points, the total demerit points i got is 12 points... the limit is 20 points lar so if u get 20 or more, is a failure le... so tt means i PASSED on my 1ST ATTEMPT!!!
YEA!!! HAPPY HAPPYafter tt went to tell my instructor abt the news and pay him the money for today lor. then went to watch the safety video and to make my driving license le... getting it in 2 wks time!! YEA!!! right nw i can drive liaox and it oso means tis coming CNY i can drive oso le... YIPPE AI AI YIPPE YIPPE AI!!! HAHA CONGRATS ME...
