86 AGAIN!

Passed my Basic Theory Evaluation this morning

Sat through two lessons of Advanced Theory Lessons. Plenty of tips given by one of the instructors during the lessons, though less than 10 percent came out in the Advanced Theory evaluation.

Both lessons are equally interesting. I believe once I started to drive I will understand the frustrations of most drivers have pertaining to PEDESTRAIN.

More videos to watch during these two lessons and I believe these visuals had done a splendid job in warning all the drivers-wannabe-and-gonnabe about the potential dangers. Although, I have opted to learn to drive Auto Car, I have to go through stuffs like sequence of operating brakes, accelerator and clutch.

I am glad that I opted for Auto Car.

Later in the afternoon, after finishing the advanced theory lessons I head straight to take the Final Theory Evaluation hoping I will pass it. As I have learnt my lesson yesterday when I failed my first attempt of the Basic Theory Evaluation (not test yet), I made a point to read through the advanced theory book at least 3 times last night!

It is a lot harder than I think especially to memorise (which I dont have to coz I am learning an Auto car) how to manovere the clutch, brakes and accelerator when we do gradual bends, sharp bends, upslope, down slope, overtaking... etc

How to remember so many ?

And *sigh* I failed on my first attempt to pass the Advanced theory evaluation. I scored 86 percent AGAIN!!!! (90 percent to pass)... Just need another 2 correct answers.

The following are some of the questions that I have overlooked when reading the book....

1. One is barred for taking any test for accumulating ______________demerit points . Answer is 13 not 12. Damn!

2. Child restrainers must be employed for Kids below ______meters.. I cannot remember

3When stopping what is the first thing u do.

4. What gear do we use if we are going downhill... lower gear, higher gear or neutral gear.... I read from the book is either gear 3 or 2 so u ask me how to choose wor.

5. Also there are a couple of scenerio questions that I am unsure.... say car A is attempting to turn overtake car C on a single lane-two way traffic, when inched out car A saw Car B approaching from opposite lane.....

What is the answer? Cannot find in book. Sigh... So i use switch to KIA SI common sense....
--> Of coz Car A must behave like tortise lar... give way to Car C and Car B..... Sekali Car B headon collision with Car A how... Also Car C is a freaking big lorry.

Correct or Not?
6... You enter flood water ... u should accelerate and ____________.. engage half clutch, switch to low gear, switch to high gear.

There are many more questions that u cannot find in the book. Which makes me think they will almost always fail folks at the first attempt .... *sour grapes*

FYI ( to those who are learning driving, )

U have to complete 2 mandatory Basic Theory lessons and 2 mandatory Advanced Theory lessons. U also have to PASS the Basic Theory EVALUATION and Final Theory EVALUATION 14 days before the Basic Theory test and Final theory test respectively, else u will have to be disqualified from the test and u have to wait for at least another 2 to 3 months to book the next test dates!!

So my advice is to finish all the lessons first. Take the evaluations well before the test.. there can be taken in any order.. no pre-requisiste. Take practice lessons before the evaluation to increase the probabily of passing.

Unlike me I chose to test my luck to try evaluation without practice...... failed at the first attempt for both evaluations. = (

Nevertheless, I promise u, little lamb that u will be the first passenger once I get my license. U might want to wear a helmet. hahaha
