My daughter went to do a last lesson with AA in Rosedale yesterday 2 hours before her restricted license practical test at VTNZ in Silverdale. Noted the man who took her for this lesson was the same one who failed her when my daughter has done her first restricted license test. The man told my daughter after her final lesson yesterday "you have improved so much, if you had done your test today with me you would have pass. Like I said two hours later we went to VTNZ my daughter full of confidence ready for her restricted license test. I just wanted to add if a person do a restricted license test at 03:00pm while it is terrible traffic and in a Industrial environment then please give them the benefit of the doubt. My daughter was never in the Silverdale area, never drove there before therefore she don't know the roads. Here is her failed test results 1. "You must not remain stationary when you have ample opportunity" The instrcture took her through the Industrial area even me almost driving for 20 years will always drive slower than the speed limit if you have this heavy traffic with cars parking on both ways on the street. It's overwhelming for an individual to "chase the spaces" if traffic came from both ways. I was actually proud of my daughter of not taking chances and risks and rather wait when it's save to go. We'll the instructor think it was slow. We'll definitely not when you drive less than one year in my opinion, experience drivers chase the spaces not new drivers. 2. "You must be in the correct lain" The instructor hold his hand telling her to turn right a few meters from where she was supposed to turn. My daughter was focus on what the instructor was saying and wanted to obey orders immediately she went straight on the far right lane and here is the catch its a lane from opposite to turn right. My daughter went over that lane but if the instructor told her closer to the time when it was actually time to turn this wouldn't happen and there was no vehicles in that turning lane otherwise my daughter would have notice this but again she was focus on his hand and voice. Afterwards we discussed this and we thought his hand movement at that turn threw her off and he tested her. Well this was not on, you are definitely setting someone up for failure by telling her to turn right at that exact moment a mile away. 3. "You must position the vehicle entirely within the lane" its terrible traffic that time she overreacted by chasing the gaps. Again give her the benefit of the doubt for this one mistake. My honest opinion VTNZ need to stop taking individuals at these times with heavy traffic because this is certainly putting everyone up for failure. I feel my daughter was robbed today. All of Auckland, Workworth are fully booked untill next year, the conclusion is there must be something wrong with your system that so many individuals fail and needs to make booking after booking. My daughter had over 20 lessons she drives every day but you still fail her.
