Had my M1 exit test in Guelph this morning and passed no problem! Woo! Now I can ride on highways and at night!
Easy test... you have to point out all the controls he asks you about, then walk the figure 8, ride the slalom, then straight line turn around, straight line, brake.... but I'm sure you people already know that!
One guy out of 4 of us failed this part...why would you show up for this and not even practice at all?? Go to an empty parking lot and see if you can do a slalom before you do it for real... tester gave him 2 tries for the slalom and he couldn't do it. Hell even a guy on a harley made it through the slalom.... I felt for him though... but good news is he can always try again later! Funny part is when you fail the M1 exit, they are like ok here's your M1 back keep riding on the roads even though you can't ride very good. LOL
After that part of the test, it's onto the road! Turn left, turn left again, go into a parking lot, come back... turn right, then a left, into another parking lot, back down, another right into the parking lot you started in and that was it!
