What Makes Newmarket DriveTest Centre Different?

In our discussions with real DriveTest examiners about the effectiveness of route training, they emphasized the importance of selecting a test centre close to where you typically drive. This familiarity with local roads can significantly enhance test readiness, making Newmarket a prime choice for residents of Richmond Hill, Thornhill, Newmarket, Aurora, and the northern areas of Markham and Vaughan.

The Newmarket DriveTest Centre is notable for several reasons:

  • High Traffic Volume: It is one of the busier locations, which prepares drivers for realistic driving conditions.

 

  • Lack of School Zones: The G2 test routes here are free from school zones, reducing complexities related to variable speed limits.

 

  • Diverse Test Offerings: This centre provides a wide range of tests, including Class A, B, C, D, E, F, Z, G1, G2, G, M1 M2, M, LM, and LM2, accommodating almost every type of road user.

 

  • Competitive Pass Rates: With pass rates of 64% for the G2 and 61% for the G exams, it demonstrates a balanced challenge for test takers.

 

  • Accessibility Features: The centre features wheelchair-accessible entrances and a large parking lot, ensuring it caters to all candidates comfortably.

Watch a Successful G2 Road Test in Action

Check out this dashcam footage of a successful G2 road test conducted on April 17, 2021, at the Newmarket DriveTest Centre.

This video, freely available on YouTube, offers a real-time perspective of the test, highlighting the route, the examiner’s instructions, and the maneuvers required to pass.

Video Highlights:

  • Parallel Parking (2:38): The examiner points out, “See that grey car over there? I would like you to stop behind it and parallel park behind it.” This shows exactly how to position the vehicle for parallel parking.

 

  • 3-Point Turn Introduction (3:39): The examiner instructs, “Alright, when it’s safe, you can go ahead. What I want you to do is a 3-point turn okay? So you can pull forward a little bit turning your wheels completely to the right.” This part captures the setup for a 3-point turn.

 

  • Executing the 3-Point Turn (4:15): As the test continues, the examiner says, “3-point turn right from here using the roadway only when it’s safe.” This captures the execution of the 3-point turn.

 

  • Uphill Parking (4:50): The examiner directs, “See that 50 km/h sign, I’d like you to pull over to that curb, pretend we’re up a hill, perform an uphill park.” This shows how to approach uphill parking during the test.
