第二次的路考,开车的经验多累积了一些,碰到和第一次同一个考官,在第一次失败的经验后,可能是理解错了考官的意思,第一次说我太紧张不自信速度起不来,而且他给我了一个误导的指导,就是保持50的速度,到路口或者红灯才刹车,事实证明这样开车是非常不对的,我这种土法炼钢的死脑袋,第二次考试可能有些给考官这样的感觉吧,在接近一个小时的考试里,经历了n次stop give way, give way, 还有5次以上的靠左停车,马上给指令让我继续走,然后在小高速上的n个give way。。。终于在一个有些上坡的T字进高速give way上以我gap selection有问题immediately fail了我。对于这点,我不服,关于投诉这部分,后面说。
他说a couple of things, 一些问题,比如giveway转左,没有把车的位置放到特别左,边画边给我讲,说我听到指令,打灯太早,容易造成后面的车混淆。and... then... you passed! 我当时都不敢相信,眼泪飚出两滴。我先生说,you make my wife's day! 然后他就跑车外面哭去了。。。考官说,you deserve it. 我是他今天第一个考试,最后我祝考官今天一天特别顺利。
Firstly we would like to apologise for the delay in responding to your inquiry about your practical driving test and thank you for your patience.
In order to answer your inquiry we have reviewed the test paper and gained a report from R***, your Testing Officer on the day.
In your inquiry you have noted that you thought you were unsuccessful because you didn’t give way correctly.
Ross’s report confirms that, as you approached a T intersection you stopped to give way and check for traffic. East Coast Road has a speed limit of 80 km/h, so vehicles are travelling at high speed. The notes on the test paper confirm, that there was a vehicle approaching from the left, which you say ‘I couldn’t see any car’. By the time you moved off from a stationary position the vehicle approaching from the left was too close and needed to take evasive action by braking to avoid a collision. This is marked as an Immediate Failure Error. For more information please see below;
At a T-intersection or driveway, traffic on Awanohi Road (bottom of the T) must give way to all traffic on East Coast Road (top of the T).
Picture of a T intersection
Approaching an intersection
• slow down and look in all directions: ahead, behind and to both sides
• be ready to stop if you have to.
An immediate failure error is recorded if; another road user is forced to take evasive action, due to an applicant’s poor gap selection. The Testing Officer must immediately return via the most direct and safest route to the office and the test is stopped.
Our findings show that Ross was correct to issue an ‘Immediate Failure Error’ under the heading of ‘Fail to Give Way’ as required in the NZTA Testing Officers Manual.
We would like to apologize for the delay in getting back to you and wish you all the best with your next test appointment
Kind regards
我今天给vtnz的回信:
Dear Colin,
Thanks for there is a reply after all.
I would like to tell you I have already passed the restricted practical driving license test yesterday.
With all due respect, still want to clarify the one I failed which the one I reported to you. I do aware what the give way rule is especially on T- section. (I stydy very carefully with the rules, vtnz guide, restricted test video on youtube and also practice as possible as much) Again, the fact is "I couldn't see any cars coming" from both directions includes the left from my sight (driver's sight), and if Mr. R*** can recall the situation fairly, I didn't cause the coming car from the left was forced to take an evation action, it was only shown when I almost position my car in the lane. And I could see from the rear mirror we were in a very safe distance.
I hope Mr. R*** and the testing system he represented is professional and fair. I do apprecate the strict tests for a person who want to become a driver, it is our mutual responsibility to the society as a whole. But the fact is the fact, you cannot fail a person with an error he/she didn't commit. If there are other issues may cause you feel I was not a safe driver at that time, you may explaine me that way, but this what Mr. Ross said is not the turth.
I feel so disappointed of what your report and finding are.
哦还有 我跟楼主一样 give way的 gap selection也有问题,是除了速度外唯一一个扣分点。不过我的问题是等太久都不出去。不过这个也是因为我当时的转盘是小高速加 multi lane 而且我旁边的车也没出去,所以最后考官说你可以再 aggressive一点也没问题 不用那么保守。。。哈哈作者: checkedvillage 时间: 2015-12-6 20:24:05
