Millions of people take driving tests every year in Canada. Unfortunately, more than half of them fail. You can avoid being part of this statistic by being thoroughly prepared for your practical test. That’s why we’ve compiled the top 5 expert tips to help you pass your driving test in Burnaby on the first try. 1.     Be Punctual Being punctual is crucial for your driving test. Arriving late could mean missing your test altogether, and rushing can leave you feeling flustered. Aim to get to the test center 10-20 minutes early. This gives you enough time to settle in without having to wait too long. Also, make sure to get a good night's sleep beforehand to reduce stress and anxiety. 2.     Have a Lesson We recommend scheduling a driving lesson on your test day if possible. This allows you to review maneuvers and ask any last-minute questions. A pre-test lesson can help calm your nerves and get you in the right mindset for driving. Additionally, taking two-...

7 Tips to Drive Safe at Night in Burnaby

Image
Should you drive there tonight or wait until morning? It's a question many drivers face. Reduced visibility and a greater risk of drowsiness make night driving more challenging. However, if you need to drive tonight, here are 7 tips for staying safe on the road: 1.     Don’t Drive When Tired The less rested you are, the less attentive you'll be while driving. If your eyelids feel heavy and your attention wanes, it's time to act. Drinking caffeine, listening to music, or getting fresh air by opening a window can help boost alertness. However, if these don't work, be honest with yourself. Instead of risking it, find a safe place to stop and rest. Whether you need just a couple of hours to recharge or a full night's sleep, don't hesitate to give yourself the time you need. 2.     Steer Clear of Two-Lane Highways Driving down a two-lane highway at night, with no other cars in sight, you go around a turn and suddenly blinded by high beams. This is a common risk ...

Parking can make you feel nervous and uneasy. Whether it's parallel parking or backing into a space, everyone has something they don't like about it. Parallel parking is especially tricky for many, but it’s useful if you want to get the best parking spots in crowded places.

But before you get there, let's start with the types of parking. Types of Parking There are three types of parking: - Parallel parking - Bay parking (aka perpendicular parking), and - Angle parking. If you don’t know these, you should learn them from a professional driving instructor in Burnaby . Especially, if you’re getting ready for a driving test. Each type has its pros and cons. 1.     Parallel Parking Parallel parking means parking next to the curb. Even though it's almost as common as bay parking, new drivers often fi...
