Rep Power: 0 Going for Driver's licnece test, need help
hey all,
I am going for a driving test (G2 Exit test)
and I was just wondering if it's ok to bring my car for the test
I have 13% tint all around, Axleback without silencer, tinted rear and bodykit.
I donno I should drive my car in the test or just burrow my friends stock ride and take the test
cause it might give bad impressions to the tester and might fail me (IMO)
any comments?

Rep Power: 286 He's from Canada guys. lol If you're from the states...ever hear of a G2 Exit Test?? Me either.
Anyway.....I'd take it in whatever car you feel most comfortable in. I took my test in my parent's Grand Caravan (LOL) because my car (at the time) was not done yet.....and did great because I had spent the most behind the wheel time in that.
GOOD LUCK!!

Rep Power: 0 Cliff notes:
G1 = Learner's permit
G2 = License with restrictions
G = License w/o restrictions ( I guess this is what he's taking it for)

G2 exit test
A quick explanation
For those of you not familiar with Ontario's graduated licencing, here's roughly how it works.
Once you're 16, you can write a 10 question, multiple choice test (really easy) and if you pass it you get your G1, which is basically a learner's permit. The G1 allows you to drive a car, but only in the daytime, never on major highways, and only with a fully licenced (and sober) driver in the passenger seat. You have to wait at least a year (or if you've done driving school, at least 8 months) before you can go to the next stage, which is the G2.
To get your G2, you have to do a road test to show that you're competent enough to drive on your own. The G2 is almost the same as a full licence, except that the number of people in the car cannot exceed the number of seatbelts, and you're not allowed to have any alcohol in your system. No big deal, those are things I go by anyway. But it's still not the full licence, and if 5 years pass between the time you get your G1 and the time you pass the final test, your licence is null and void and you have to start from scratch.
Once you're ready, you do one more road test to show you're ready for the full licence, which is called the G. Once you've got your G you're allowed a minimal blood alcohol level, enough that if you have a glass of wine with your dinner you're still legally allowed to drive home. I don't drink at all if I'm going to be driving, so it's no real difference to me. Although I suppose the G licence does allow for those times when the LCBO is offering free samples of amaretto or whatever.

Rep Power: 0 Don even remember lol alot of things to watch out
exact same with G1 Exit test. onlything is that you do a highway enter/exit test. one thing you gotta watch for when entering highway is speed, you need to speed up to 100km when entering highway(leaving the ramp). so need some gas (I got in to 7000 RPM lol on auto) . other than that, just keep your self calm and hope for the best
