I'm hoping to pass and get my N tomorrow! I think that's like the G2 or something, in Ontario. Anyone got any tips for me? I really hope I don't fail or else I will have to wait months before I can attempt it again! I will be so sad if I fail
. Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks.

it's kinda late to say this now, but practice makes perfect. if you practiced a lot, you'll be fine. i practiced for six months before going to the test, and i got my license on the first try. not to mention i have an almost flawless driving record

The key is just to keep calm.

My road tester man broke my passenger seat. He tried to adjust for less leg room (short fat man), couldn't move it cuz he was pulling the lever the wrong way, so he yanked on it and the lever came off in his hand
The seat had to stay in that position forever after that. I wanted to strangle the guy

Drive around the area where the examaniers station is at. Be familair with the speed limits aound there.
Watch for school zones, playgrounds, trees partially covering stop signs.
Accelerate easy, come to gradual stops.
Just use common sense and you'll be good.

don't make quick glances at your mirrors. you gotta make like exaggerated glances so they know you are really checking your mirrors.

Yeah, I got some points off of my driver's test because they said I didn't check my mirrors enough, even though I know I did every time. So make it really obvious.

Here's a few things I'd suggest.
1) mess up your hair
2) load up on the caffeine before hand so that you're twitching.
3) find extremely thick glasses so that they magnify your eyes (like Bubbles from Trailer Park Boys)
4) Randomly start jerking the wheel left and right on a straight road
5) During the jerking (get your mind out of the gutter people!) scream random things like: "THE APOCALYPSE IS UPON US!", "I CAN SEE TIM HORTON'S FROM HERE!", "I'D LIKE A LARGE COFFEE, SOME OREOS AND A LARGE PLASTIC BAG PLEASE!", "I'M THE REINCARNATION OF ROBERT DOWNEY JR." and of course, no road test would be complete without you screaming out the lyrics to the CHEERS TV series theme song. You can't be in tune though.
If you do all of these things, you'll definitely pass.

Don't speed in a school zone! Bastards caught me on that one - I thought I was going to slow and then I sped up and got screwed. But that was to get rid of my N.
