DriveTest - Espanola, Ontario

Ashley

After having terrible experience in Sudbury with Carole. I took the time to drive out to Espo for my G test after hearing so many good things.
DEFINITELY the most comfortable i felt they don't make you feel nervous they are so kind the entire drive.

Ten minutes to close, only needed a vision test done. The white haired dude looks at me and asks, "what are you here for?" as he's shuffling through his paperwork and proceeds to look at the clock and says, "I want to get out of here at 5, not 530. That's going to take 10-15 minutes". So I said, "you're still technically open", but the dude was just being a total douchebag!

I waited outside the centre and he didn't come out until way past 5pm... horrible customer experience. I hope he gets terminated for this!!

I went here for my G test to not even hit the highway longer than 2 seconds. We passed the intersection, went though the gas station, then turned right onto the highway and left back into Espanola. She failed me because I didn't look around enough. Ridiculous. absolutely ridiculous. She said everything else was perfect but when I went over the train tracks I wasn't looking left and right to make sure the train wasn't going to come by again, or when we were going though an intersection that I wasn't moving my head to check the cars on the other side of the intersection like what do I just forget about the car that's driving infront of me and worry about the people that are stopped at the red light while I have the green. She said I need to exaggerate more when doing my drivers test moving my head. She said she could see my eyes moving to check my mirrors and watch my head move to check blind spots but it wasn't enough for her standards. This place is ridiculous. Needs competent driving instructors.

Drive test centre is located nor far from highway, residential area and importantly close to school. Speed limit is 50kph when you exit from Drive test centre plaza and then they take you to residential area where speed signs are for 40kph. I noticed quite a few All way stops and a few Flashing yellow beacon. Highway speed was from 60 to 80kph max and single lane with no dividers.

Coming to Office staff and Examiner. Examiner was a very polite and humble lady and she explains very clearly what she will be looking for during the test. She was very patient & cool during the entire duration of the test. Drive test centre is quite small and the guy at the office was okay and he will get your work done. So overall it was good experience and easy test location and Traffic was not compared to GTA 😉

Good luck ?

Rude behaviour. They even canceled my test without sending any email, any text or phone call. I came from Sudbury and when I tried to check in she told me that they canceled my test. They took all tests without any appointments but I had an appointment and they didn’t took the test. It’s very unfair. I spent my gas and time.

Guy at the desk is rude but the lady who did my drive test was absolutely amazing!

There is examiner who is very nice in Espanola. She explains patiently and her instructions are clear. Her work is great. Unfortunately I forget her name(may be called Windy). In addition, the road conditions here are good. The traffic is not too crowded. If you are a person who is nervous about exams, you are very suitable to come here for G or G2 road test.

My roommate arrived for G2 drive test 30 minutes early like they told him to. They were closed when he arrived so he went up and knocked on the door, no one was there and the lights were off. He waited with his dad till 9:04AM and they still were closed with no one in sight. The note on the door said it opened at 9:30AM when his test was at 9:17AM. On the website it said they were open around 8Am so what is going on Their phone is busy and we can't reach them to tell them the problem. HORRIBLE!!
