Do not write drivers test at Bedfordview Licensing Dept.

I must say to any parents reading this that I highly recommend you do not let your child write their drivers test at the Bedfordview Licensing Dept.

The WORST tester is the Old White Male. He has a horrible tone, no personality and makes one extremely nervous. If you make a small mistake he will continually go on about it and make you feel like the stupidest most reckless driver ever.

I am not only saying this because I am upset that I failed, I am saying this because I am absolutely shocked and how I was treated.

I told him at one point that I am sorry and that I was nervous and he just told me "If you cause an accident and someone dies will you just tell them in court that you are sorry it was because you were nervous?" at this point I was crying from nerves. I accidentally made a right turn when he said left and I apologized, he didn't care he kept saying I told you to turn left why did you turn right, apologized again. He just said the same thing. Then he looked at me and said "Do you have any idea where you are and where you are going" so I said no sorry "he said well neither do I, I don't know where we are so now what?"

When I was coming out of the Dept at the robot there (turning left), it was green for me so I went, as I checked me blind spot and turned on the road, the robot turned red and he told me I just went through a red robot. But I was right because Happy my instructor was watching me from the yard and told me I did the correct thing and I went when it was my turn.

I also did not go above 40 because you are meant to stay below 40 and when we got back to the yard he said "Jeez you're extremely slow"

Absolutely disgusted, Driving tests are extremely scary and having a tester like this does not help. At one point I was ready to just tell him to fail me immediately and get out of the car because I was so shocked and upset at his terrible manner.
