Is it in concord
Stay Kaur no it’s in Vallejo!
Ok... thank you for letting me know . I have my test on 20th February in Vallejo
@@staykaur9334 best of luck!
Boss Traveler thank you
The instructor was kinda aggressive he was annoying but congratulations
Cheesy tacos he for sure was! But good thing I passed it. Haha thanks for stopping by and have a nice day!
true
For real tho
Hindi nmn siya annoying
Hindi nga strekto ang iba strekto
Kalma lng sa pananalita niya
yo fr
Good job giving the right of way to the pedestrian. The guy was obviously embarrassed after haha
Marcus Fernandes thanks! I hope he was! 😁
@@BossTraveler Haha
That’s their job. You just have to out smart them they take notes on everything you do
Raylaya i don’t think he would have risked a pedestrians life as apart of a test, that would be very reckless and unprofessional of him, but by this he does not seem very professional anyways
First of all, it's not a pedestrian. If the person was walking with the bike, then it would be a pedestrian. If you are cycling across, then you have to yield for the car
Nobody:
Instructor: Go while a pedestrian is crossing
Grant Cantrill haha maybe he didn’t see the person lol or if I had gone closer maybe he would have failed me.
Omg I was so frustrated I was like there’s a biker omg do you want me to kill him!?
Kyle Miller that was dumb of him to do that tho, because what if the driver did go?
Kate Hills you have to out smart the instructor 💀 that’s their whole method
😭😭
Great job stopping for the pedestrian even though the light was green! I dont know why the examiner was telling you to go even though they haven't fully crossed yet.
Yeah I didn't get that too, maybe he didn't see the pedestrian crossing and it made me feel very nervous when he told me to go. Thanks for watching and have a wonderful evening!
@@BossTraveler Multiple reasons. Driver could have gone ahead of the person in the crossing because it has a center median and they where still on the other side of it. Driver should have pulled up to the intersection further while waiting. Driver should have anticipated them getting across and started moving sooner than you did.
@@jamescmca you could right!. I guess it depends on how an examiner sees it. Some would see it the way you see and others not and I was told to do everything as careful as possible. I'm glad I passed it and hopefully this video helps others by not making the same mistakes I made. :)

What a piece of shit telling u to go in a aggressive tone when clearly theres a pedestrian walking you have to let them finish crossing
I’ve just been offered a position to be a license examiner and I can assure you I wouldn’t be that abrupt as this examiner was at times.
Ginoinny wow! They should hire people like you. I wish you the best of luck and success if you take the job.
Congratulations. I am sure you will be a fair and assertive examiner by giving the students plenty of time to react on the roads. You will do just fine. God Bless.
I hope you stayed true to your promise !
when he yelled at her to go when their was a pedestrian wtf
Trevor Shoup right
exactly like he tryna get fired or what 😂
It was a test dummy
@@Buugzy what?
@@nixan1641 yes he didn’t mean it, he was testing if she was quick to get nervous and make sudden moves while being under pressure by someone
After sleepless nights , tears, and 3 attempts,got my drivers license on January 7 2020!!!!
Toneka Grigsby-Green congratulations hopefully I’ll get mines today because lordddd I’m tired of taking that test😭
Congratulations. 🎈🎉🎊 I’m happy to hear that you did it. 💛
Congrats!! I’m going for mine on April 3!!!!
Good job mate 🤠
Congrats
why was he so mean??? actually made me feel bad
&‘ He looked mean and looked to be in a hurry and I guess he wanted to make me feel more nervous than I already was. But when he said that I passed made me feel a huge relief. Thanks for stopping by and have a good night!
@@BossTraveler glad you passed!!
@@emilygutierrez9787 thank you Emily!
Jesus he was trying to make you hit the cyclist crossing or something. Congratulations on passing your test!
Impavid I guess he didn’t see it first, thank you!
@@BossTraveler she just too far behind turn. Should pull up a little more.
He was probably scared of the police
This dude’s attitude is unacceptable
That’s literally anyone at the dmv for some reason they’re all bitter
Right?? My mouth dropped when he said “go! Cmon go! “ why so rude?? This is why kids are scared to take tests...
Sound like they need some orange juice
@@Fridaslv literally thats why im scared to take the test because people at the DMV be so aggressive and im sensitive lmfao
@@gracemcadoo4205 exactly !! I have my test in an hour and I pray I don’t have a rude instructor. They should make us feel comfortable
The instructor would of had to meet me in the parking lot after i got my license no cap
I love how she clarified there’s a pedestrian instead of just listening to the examiner. I don’t know why the examiner was in such a rush to tell her to go while there was a pedestrian on the crosswalk. She would’ve failed it if she did that, especially with a different examiner.
Thank you for the wonderful words Mercedes ❤
They do try to tell you the wrong things to see if you'd mess up.
6:00 what do you mean go?? There was a pedestrian on the road!!
i think he just wanted him to enter the intersection slowly as opposed to fully waiting even after the biker had crossed
He seemed nice at 1st, but his intensity picked up @ 5:55 when asked to make the right turn. God Bless.
Congratulations! The examiner was slightly aggressive, and he definitely would've added to my stress levels so good on you for not letting that get to you.
The instructor was like go hit the pedestrian
The instructor seemed mean. I hope mines dont be like that. Great job!!
I hope that too, there are some really nice ones out there I guess it's just luck! I wish you the best of luck. Always tell yourself that you can do it. Have a nice day!🙂
Took mine with a DPS trooper. Guy was really chill all through the test
c l that’s so cool to know. I’m happy that you passed yours. It really feels good when we pass it comparing to not.
c l consider subscribing to my channel as we do traveling vlogs. Have a wonderful day!❤️
I failed my first one because I got the literal worst instructor. He refused to talk to me or acknowledge me until giving me directions and it really put me off. The second one I did I passed with flying colours cause he was so happy and bubbly and he even allowed me to have some time just to breathe cause he knew I could pass. My second guy was amazing!
Examiner: Let me have a couple of seconds to see how you did
Examiner 0.5 seconds later: You passed
Ok bruh i had the exact same examiner today and he did the whole “now wait a couple seconds so i can see how you did” a whole minute passes by before he says “unfortunately you did not pass today” like he didnt even write anything down he just stared out the window
@@lefruitsnax2708 rip
LeFruitSnax lmfaooo this guy seem like a clown
@@lefruitsnax2708 LMAOOO sorry tho
The instructor was so aggressive. Good job for looking out for the pedestrian.
I salute you for being calm on your driving test.
Thank you!
I manifest in this for myself that I will pass.
You will!
Did you? Lol
@@solprospera3572 im so late LMAO but i actually ended up passing but had 9 errors🌚
While the examiner was a little rough around the edges, he wasnt as bad as other examiners that I have seen. He tried to be professional so I give him that credit. He didnt have to slightly yell since you clearly knew what you were doing. When you were waiting for the pedestrian @ 5:55, he didnt have to say GO abruptly, which was unnesscary. Therefore, he wasnt the best or worst examiner, he was tough, but fair, to me. Congratulations. Im glad you passed. God Bless.
Jeffrey Keith Horne II thanks very much! I don’t have idea how other examiners are but after hearing it from you looks like mostly everything came to my favor. He could’ve said not pass too but I’m glad he passed me. Thanks for stopping by and God bless you too!
@@BossTraveler I look at a lot of driving videos and I have seen instructors yell more than this guy when drivers were either doing well or made small mistakes, which was uncalled for. Once again a job well done. God Bless.
Jeffrey Keith Horne II thank you and have a good evening! :)
I had a state cop .
@John Dor You had a state cop giving you a road test. If so, how was it? God Bless.
Meanwhile In Europe :
•45 Minute Test Route
•7 Maneuvers
•Complete silence in the vehicle
•Narrow Rural Roads
•No Help from the tester whatsoever
A lot harder for sure, thanks for sharing!
Video: *Yield and watch for pedestrians*
Instructor: *GO, COME ON, GO!*
I took my DMV driving test earlier today but with a different examiner. All my nerves went away and became confident. Passed on my first time with only 5 errors!
Congratulations Justin! Happy for you :)
@@BossTraveler Thank You!! Time for me to go car hunting!
Just passed my driving test today. Good luck to whoever is planning to take theirs in the future.
Congratulations Agbor!
@@BossTraveler Thanks 🙏
The tester here is so patient
Good job for passing your test! Thanks for sharing your experience with us....
I have my test tomorrow thanks for this video it helps a lot
CrimsonVanquish I wish you the best of luck! 😍
Just took my test here in Vallejo today. This video helped a lot!! Thanks!!!
You're welcome! And Congratulations!
When he said go around the truck I noticed you didn’t put your signals on going to the other lane and switching back but congrats !
Melina Rodriguez yes I didn’t, the nerves really got me and hope others don’t make simple mistakes like that. Thanks for stopping by and have a great day!
There were also double yellow lines and "going around a truck" isn't one of the exceptions to the "do not cross" rule.
you don’t have to use your signals in that situation.
jaimeee Better to be safe than sorry
After failing the test two times, I finally passed it thanks to this video!! Thank you so much!!
Congratulations Jarett!
Omg my is next week

Kimberly Perez I wish you the best! If I did it you can too!
Kimberly Perez Good luck!
Niceee, I just got my drivers license too🤙🏼🕺🏻I passed mines last Friday. Congrats by the way👌🏼
Wow, congrats. I'm happy to hear that you passed yours as well. I wish you success on everything you do in the future! :)
You did an awesome job. I’m not even sure why I’m watching these , I’m only in 8th grade but I want to be ready for my drivers test.
You will do great too, just keep practicing!
Thanks for sharing this video with us. 😃🚘
congrats for passing. at 3:40 seems like you never made a complete stop. you got lucky there :)
Gaz D yes I think so! I’m glad I got away with that one. Thanks for watching this video. Consider subscribing to my channel if you haven’t. Thanks again and have a wonderful day!
That's so true
I think she did
hakima outgouda after checking 3:35 looks like I kinda did. Haha it’s hard to recall. Without this video I wouldn’t even recall anything. Lol thanks for watching and have a good evening! :)
I thought the same thing
That guy saying go what he talking abt there were pedestrians he crazy 😂
Congratulations..!! Thanks for sharing this video:)
Omg!! glad this is located at my hometown!! Vallejo babbbyyy!
I like how you saw the Padrestrian riding the bike and letting him go before you drive.
thank you!
Good job ate!
Claire Douglas thank you very much! Have a lovely day!!!😉❤️
Congrats I take mines Friday wish me luck 🍀👍
The instructor told you to go ahead to see your reaction on busy streets. Cause there would have been a chances that someone is behind you and can cause traffic.
Best thing to do with that situation is:
- Check your back mirror
1. if there’s someone behind you then you will have to move a little bit further forward then turn.
2. If there’s no one then you can let the cyclist/pedestrians complete his passing and tell the instructor that “there’s someone” .
Remember! You only need to fully stop or cancel your turn manouvres if the other traffic are moving toward you!
I just took my test today (4/1/21) at this DMV in Vallejo and it is the EXACT same route from the video!
happy to help! Congrats!
Foo was really pressing her, like "common go!" Like nah foo, I ain't tryin to run down this pedestrian😂
Fr I would’ve told that foo straight up to not rush me
Just passed my test on 08/07/2023! Thank you for the vid and tips💜
Congratulations! We're happy to help :D
I’ve watched your video like three times. I have to practice but congrats
Kinah Jones thank you! I hope it helps you, if you can follow us and join our journeys we would really appreciate
I have my test today I’m scared but I feel great
Kayla Harris I wish the best of luck but is dmv open today in new year day?
Boss Traveler no I take mines with a personal instructor
Kayla Harris I see. I wish you the best and hope you pass it...😉
Kayla Harris are u in a driving Skoo how do u get to take it with a personal one
no one gonna talk abt the parking at the end ? 😭😭
I’ve been reviewing this video ever since my test day (which was today) and I finally passed 🙏
Yay! Congratulations 👏
Thank you for your video it was extremely helpful! I passed! 🚘
Congratulations! 🎉
You actually seem really good at driving! Did you practice alot before or did you already know how to drive?
Thanks, yes I did practice a lot before the day of my test.
Wow jing. Nice one. Hoping I'll get a chance to ride with you there someday and somehow. Please excuse me with my wrong grammar. You know me.. Hahah.
Hearing that this guy was mean when I thought they were all like this def calmed me down before my test today
We hope you pass your test! All th best
thanks for this! my drivers test was in concord but this got me prepared and i got zero marks / 100% on my test and the instructor said he rarely gave that out!
You’re welcome! Congratulations🎉
Bad attitude from the instructor. Unacceptable as far as I’m concerned. I was given an intentionally wrong instruction to make sure I would do the right thing, but nothing dangerous like running over a pedestrian! I was told to turn the wrong way down a one way street (there was plenty of room to correct if a mistake was made and no traffic). I passed my test with a perfect score and was able to have a really nice conversation with my instructor. That was over a decade ago and I still remember just having a good time. They even shared some funny stores with me (like someone else they recently tested turning the wrong way down a highway lol).
Woah yours ended as a nice experience, congrats! I just focused on what I know is the right thing to do just like you :)
Thank you so so much for the video! Quick question: when you backed up in a straight line did you keep both hands on the wheel or did you do one hand on wheel and other on passenger seat? (Like when you parallel park)
V Green I kept one on the steering wheel and the other one on the passenger seat. Hope this answer helps you and if you can pls consider subscribing I would really appreciate that. Thanks and I wish you the best of luck! You can do this
Thank you soooo much and will do!!!
I’m taking mine tomorrow! 🤞🏽
good luck and all the best!
I'm from vallejo, but I'm taking mine in fairfield on monday. Congrats!!!
Kloudy Sky I wish you good luck and hope you pass it!
@@BossTraveler I PASSED! Thank you!!
@@TSCBS Congrats!
Had my test here ,and it went well! No errors, and my driving instructor was real nice :) I was pretty anxious about the entire process, but this video helped (the route is exactly the same as in the video). I don't know who this might help in the future, but here are some minor, but tricky things to keep in mind for the test (and hopefully save you some money + time too :) )
1. Straight toward Napa St: For the backing portion, make sure to use your turning signals when pulling into and out of the curb. Use your hazard lights when backing up, and use your right mirror (while looking back) to see how far you are from the curb. Move your wheel clockwise to pull closer/counter-clockwise to move further from the curb. You'll also notice that this street turns from a One Way into a Two Way road, so be mindful. I saw a student automatically fail bc they didn't make the distinction apparent :'(
2. Left on Broadway St: When turning left onto this street, you will make an Unprotected Left Turn. This means that you will have to pull into the intersection, wait for all the cars on the other side to pass, and then proceed left (There should be vids on UA-cam too). This is also where you'll have your lane changes. On top of doing all the steps for a lane change, make sure not to cross the intersection when doing so! (I believe there are ~two intersections in this road).
3. Right on Redwood St: When turning right into this street, look over your right shoulder, and make sure to yield + slow down as much as you can without stopping! Anticipate cars coming from your left AND cars making a U-Turn from the other side of the st. into your lane.
4. Right on Alameda Ave: You have the right of way to turn right bc there's no stop sign! Just slow down, look over your right and left shoulder to cover your blind spots, and turn. B)
5. Couch St. turning into the DMV: This part isn't bad, but make sure to get in the middle, yellow lane ahead of time + slow down when making the left turn back into the DMV.
General things to cover: unprotected left turns, knowing when to yield vs. when to stop, looking over your shoulder!! 10 minutes and you're done. Good luck :^D
Wow thank you for all your tips! And congratulations on passing 100%.
@@BossTraveler thanks a bunch for uploading the vid! :^)
@@marymijares6242 thank you too for watching! We have more travel videos if you’re interested about family travels 😊
@@marymijares6242 omg what time and weekday did u take your test i’m so scared of a mean vallejo examiner
@@jeannetvictoria5415 i took mine around 10 am on a Thursday! Would recommend an earlier time since there's barely any cars on the road 🚗
I was also worried about a scary examiner 😖 luckily, I got paired with someone super nice, but I think as long as you're confident and practice the route, you'll do amazing!!
Wait a second.. was this in vallejo!? (YUP😂Chicken Express certified me that it is)
passed this morning thanks to this video!! instructor was so so sweet and the route was EXACTLY like this, thank youuu🎉
You’re welcome, glad it helped! Drive safe❤️
nice job thanks for the vid
I was so confused. So the emergency parking brake and foot brake are the same thing.
no they are not the same, The emergency brake is the hand brake and the foot brake are the normal brake that you use. There are actually 4 types of emergency brakes.
STICK LEVER, which found under the instrument panel (usually found in older-model vehicles)
CENTER LEVER, which is found in between front seats
PEDAL, which is found to the left of the floor pedals
ELECTRONIC OR PUSH BUTTON, which are found on newer model cars. Hope this helps you!
I have a foot break in my toyota avalon
Some cars don’t have an emergency brake I can see why you’re confused
NOOOOOOO, they are not the same
"go cmon go" *as the pedestrian is still crossing*
Right?! I got the same reaction like what? Seriously?!
@@BossTraveler yeah lmao at first maybe he didn’t see the pedestrian but then when you told him that there was a pedestrian there HE STILL TOLD YOU TO GO?? Like wtf is wrong with him. Good job, you did great congrats!!!
@@jayg8339 thank you Jay G
Well don. Congratulations!!
Thank you!
I got my drivers test yesterday on first try. Feels good
Congratulations!
I have my test Tuesday and I hope the instructer is calm and isn't mean
She did not make a full complete stop at the stop sign bruh she passed omg
Thanks for this video I'm suppose to do my test tomorrow and I'm so nervous but this helped me alot
If others can you can do it too!
I passed
@@jennadancoff5843 yay! Congratulations 👏 👏 👏 drive safely 💖
Great video- I felt like I was taking the test!
Thank you
Do you know if all california driving tests are the same? Do some include the uphill and downhill parking, parallel parking, two point and three point turns?
As far as I know all of them are similar. I've talked to my parents and friends and they said that their experience was similar to the one in the video.
I feel like she stops too short of the line sometimes especially near 8:00 where she had the right of way but didn’t show clear intent to go. Overall pretty good driving
if this were me i would be giving him this attitude right back like jesus christ this dude is so impatient for no reason. new drivers are going to be cautious he should know this. good job passing !
Thank you Rebekah!
Good job!!!👏👏👏👏
Thanks Angie!
The driving instructor was really impatient and aggressive
Yes he sure was and it freaked the heck out of me, good thing I passed. Thanks for stopping by and have a good one!💚
Boss Traveler you too!!
Yuri' Gilliam thanks!
Great job waiting for that 🚴♀️ cyclist to fully cross! I failed my first one but I’m determined to pass the 2nd time ! I have mines the 13th
Thank you! I wish you luck and happy to hear that you are determined to pass it on the 13th. You can do this!!!
lmao taking my test for the second time tomorrow morning and this is really helping me calm my nerves. Failed the first time because I didn’t use the emergency lights for backing up, and not using my signals when parking at the curb 😫
All the best! You can do it! If you can subscribe to our channel I woud really appreciate. Thank you so much for watching!
Here in 2021 barely starting to do my driving test can’t wait
good luck on yours! I'm sure you can do it!
I had this guy and he failed me for going to slow this is in Vallejo ca btw! But congrats!!!
Everyone is talking about his attitude, his attitude was way better than the person I got stuck with 😭 the lady was so rude to me which did not help how nervous I already was
Right? There is someone who is more rude than him like the one you encountered. I hope you passed yours
Congrats for passing your road test! God bless po! ❤️
Thank you very much. God bless you too!❤
cant wait to take my drivers test in a couple weeks im competitive/ready 😎🤘🏾🚘
Good luck and congrats in advance!
when backing up, are we supposed to have our emergency lights on? I watched a few driving test videos and wasn't sure if it was needed to have a signal light on or not
In my experience, I didnt but I did physically look behind when backing up
Good question, i don't want points taken off for something like this
congrats, mines in two days...
Edward Signor thanks. I wish you luck and really hope you pass it!
i just took my test today and i passed with no errors! same exact route as this one
Congratulations Daisan!
