Do your license anywhere but Hillstar.

My daughter did her license at Hillstar. She was nervous and seated in the car with a license examiner when the examiner's senior manager came out of the testing centre and stood in the testing area, glaring at my daughter, with her arms crossed. My daughter had the intimidating figure in her line of sight for the parallel parking bay, in addition to an examiner on her left in the car. Being young and nervous, my daughter did not want to ask the manager to move, and instead reversed around her in order to parallel park. This made the angle for getting into the parking bay impossible, and my daughter hit one of the poles. Way to go, Hillstar, your bully of a senior manager got a nervous teenager to fail her license in the first five minutes of her test. You must be SO proud. There was already an examiner in the car - what was this woman doing standing in the testing ground? I have heard many stories about people being failed at Hillstar - Ms Belligerent is often the reason, as it the fact that their tests go on for an average of 45 minutes - considerably longer than the tests at other licensing centres.
