ok, I know how this sounds but please try not to be biased.
This morning I failed the G test for the third time.
First time (Downsview) I stoped a bit harsh when some guy cuts in front of me almost pushing me out of the road. The lady said I did not looked in my rearview mirror to check if somebody was behind...
Second time (Oshawa) a 70-year old (and I do have respect for the elders) was absolutely horrified when he saw the stick and kept repeating me that I should keep my both hands on the wheel...
Third time (Oshawa) I got nailed for impieding the traffic, more precisely driving too slow (45in 50 and 95 on the 401)...
Any advices?
(I'm running out of patience...)

My advice since it looks like you got dinged once already for taking the test in a stick car go with a auto then you never have too worry about about that part of it, and as far as i know you are allowed about 10% +/- of the posted speed limit so 45 and 90 should have been ok.

Best advise. Speed a couple bucks and go out with a driving instructor for a refresher course. They know what the flavour of the week is that the MTO is looking for. I.E. lane checks and such. When I went several years ago I was told that you can't look at your mirrors enough.

Take Young Drivers of Canada driver training program and your good to go. They won't let you take the test untill your ready and trust me they prepare you well. Best money I spent at 16 years of age, seems like so long ago now....  .

funny thing... about 2 months ago I quoted ford for a dvd that they wanted to make about Young Drivers.... so I had to watch a recording of all their courses... I was surprised to realize that I was actually aplying most of their advices already, even though I never took the course...
I think I'm just gonna change the location... no ofence mbb but for a while I'll be happy just to pass through 'shwa...

Well you could've done what I did a long time ago.
I finished a driving course (it was a long time ago, can't remember which one), then went for the test.
The guy basically failed me before he got in the car (a long story).
Basically the guy was a jerk and on purpose was giving me instructions after it was possible to do the manouver properly.
I went to the manager of the location and told him what had happened, he took me out and I passed with flying colors.
Seems to me they need to fail x number/day.
My sister also failed with the same guy just before me.
