Mock driving TEST at Cannington DOT with Tips on how to pass the WA driving assessment

This video was recorded at the Cannington DOT. It provides a step by step guide on the 5 sections of the driving test and it's helpful to all Learner drivers at a variety of skill levels. It also captured a crash scene at a roundabout in Section 2. As always, I welcome comments and questions and will try to answer them as best I can. Enjoy the video and drive safe.

Hi Glenn!!! Just found this video, Thank you for everything you taught me, Driving lessons were also super fun. Haha 🤣🙏

[@mydrivewa]

Hi Hannah!!! Your comments just made me laugh. Will always remember your trademark ‘scan-scan’ hahaha. I haven’t printed that on a tee shirt yet. I’ve just recorded Mollie’s mock test today at Success Licensing. So that should be fun to watch when it’s out! I’m also teaching a friend of yours - Monica, and she’s also watched your video. Enjoyed the lessons with you too! Take care and love your crazy TikTok videos! YaY🎉🤣

[@wichong670]

You guys did a great demonstration, thank you for the video

[@mydrivewa]

Thanks for watching and sharing your amazing comments!

[@GemJet]

Hi Glenn, thank you so much for our lessons and for being patient with my anxiety stricken heart 😅 I will always put to heart and mind everything you taught me. Hope you’ll have more students to inspire with your kind yet firm approach. All the best! 😊 ~Gem

[@mydrivewa]

Hey Gem! I’m so happy to hear you passed at Cannington! You really deserved it. Thank you for taking time to share your success story with us so as to inspire anyone who is on the journey to getting their licence. All the best to you and family and i always looked forward to your lesson as you would always have a small snack for me after the lesson. That was so thoughtful 😇 Sincere best wishes to you too! Glenn / MyDrive School

[@vintagecottonon]

This is where i passed my auto driving test, so quite nostalgic seeing this route. Now going for Manual test, so this video is super helpful. Hannah was hilarious BTW hahaha! Love the easy going nature of you both 😎

[@mydrivewa]

That’s great to know that you found this video helpful. All the best for the manuals! Cannington is good place for a manual test as it’s almost a flat terrain. Totally agree that Hannah is hilarious and she was fun to teach 🤣

[@sazzwin4059]

Great Great Video, KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK🔥🔥🔥

[@mydrivewa]

Thank you! Will do! All the best for your driving

[@AngelinaHiong]

Hi Navman, Thank you for this video. I feel much more comfortable doing my test tomorrow morning at cannington 😀.

[@mydrivewa]

Hi Angelina! Hope it goes well tomorrow. The bunch of assessors working at Cannington this week are an amazing bunch. You should have a good run. Watch the stop signs and speeds. Also do not pull over at bus stops, hydrants and any unsafe positions. Have fun and get your P’s! Send us a smiley when you pass. Glenn 😁

[@AngelinaHiong]

Hi Glenn, I failed today over something unexpected beyond my control. I hope I pass my second one 😢. Thank u for the advice.

[@mydrivewa]

You are welcome. Keep going!

[@AngelinaHiong]

Hi Glenn@@mydrivewa , I have a driving test in two weeks at 8:45 a.m. Would you happen to have any tips about the morning driving test?

[@mydrivewa]

Just watch for the tail end of school zones for the 8.45am tests. Remember, the assessors are not out to fail you, but are there to validate your drive. So just show them you are confident and competent!

[@somalikids4994]

Hi there thank u for those helpful videos I will request if it’s possible can you do driving test areas mirrabooka thank u 😊

[@mydrivewa]

Glad you like the videos. We unfortunately do not have instructors up north so it maybe a while longer before we do videos of Mirrabooka and Joondalup. But the road rules do apply irrespective of where you do your drive test. All the best 😀!

[@pnghganh]

Hi Glenn! I'm taking the test soon at Cannington and feeling quite nervous! When approaching roundabouts, t junctions or intersections, what is your recommended speed and do you get marked down for flow if you stop (at a giveway sign) to look at both sides before proceeding? Thank you!

[@mydrivewa]

Hi @pnghganh, Thank you for reaching out. When approaching roundabouts / give way / intersections, what I usually recommend is the 20/20 rule - that is 20m from the intersection etc, slow down to 20km/h. If your view is obstructed use the 20/10 rule - 20m slow down to 10km/h to make sure you can see. You should not stop at a give way if it’s safe, but if you pull out in front of a vehicle, you will certainly be doing another drive test 😅 All the best for your upcoming drive test! Best Regards

[@pnghganh]

Thank you for the tips!

[@mydrivewa]

No worries!

[@federicolauretti9075]

Hi everyone thanks in advance to whoever can answer me on this. I have a driving test in about 2 weeks time at Cannington at 10:35 a.m. and I was wondering if at that time it is busy or if it is not thanks again to whoever can answer me and also great video it helps me a lot.

[@markdawg27]

What day is it?

[@federicolauretti9075]

@@markdawg27 the 11 of october

[@markdawg27]

I used to work around the Cannington area and on a Wednesday at that time the streets shouldn’t be too busy. The car park may be a bit busy but the back streets should be alright.

[@markdawg27]

Good luck with your test though, try not to be nervous and just focus on one thing at a time. Don’t think ahead about what’s to come just focus on what the instructor says at that time.

[@federicolauretti9075]

​@@markdawg27thank you for your help and hopefully everything goes well

[@shivaneupane4762]

Hi Navman, will the assessor will ask us to park on specific parking or we can park on wherever we like during parking and left something behind?

[@mydrivewa]

Hi Shiva! That’s a great question. The assessor could specify a type of parking he want to see eg. forward or reverse. He can sometimes instruct you to park beside another vehicle. Sometimes, it can be as easy as park anywhere that is safe! Just do not park in the ACROD area 😬.

[@mydrivewa]

If anyone else on this channel who has done their test before and would like to share their test time parking experiences, please do jump in the chat! Would love to hear from you. Cheers 😁

[@mydrivewa]

Thank you for your excellent input. I’m sure this would be helpful to those who will having their driving test soon. I hope you passed your test too?!

[@mydrivewa]

Legend! Congratulations 🎉

[@maria-ez5gi]

@@mydrivewa I did mine at Kelmscott at around 4pm - wasn't busy at all! I had to do a reverse park for the stopping for shopping section and I believe I did a pretty good job. At the end of the test, I was asked to do a forward park, but that wasn't too great because I was so stressed (I thought I failed so bad). For anyone nervous, I would say do a practice test beforehand, whether it be with your instructor or a driver you feel comfortable with. It really helped me and calmed my nerves. Good luck :)

[@taliabrowne2707]

Hi guys I have a driving test on the 30th of November Thursday at 7:05am can anyone tell me if this is a busy time?

[@mydrivewa]

Hi and thanks for watching our videos. 7.05am is a great test time. Traffic is still pretty light and you would have almost completed your test by the time school zone starts. If you look at my other Cannington video with Manthila, you’ll see that the Cannington car park is almost empty. So feel confident that you have secured a good spot! All the best 👍

[@user-ri5tg8vt6e]

Hello, how many major and minor mistakes we can do and we still pass ? thank you.

[@mydrivewa]

Hello! A major mistake is the equivalent of an instant fail case. As for the minors, I have a video on my channel explaining the various criteria used to measure performance in the driving test (It's called Actual Driving Test Score Sheet). Have a look at that one and ask any questions if in doubt. Thank you Glenn / MyDrive School

Thank you for the ❤️❤️!!

[@maria-ez5gi]

Could you please tell me what time this mock test was taking place, if you don't mind?

[@sxrge7349]

You can quite clearly see the time and date at the bottom right of the video..

[@mydrivewa]

Hi and thanks for your message. I recorded this video at about 10.30am in Cannington. It was fairly busy in the Licensing car park and surrounds, but the back roads were a breeze. Let me know if you need further clarification. Regards Glenn

[@maria-ez5gi]

@@mydrivewa Thank you :)

[@thetruthisoutthereofficial]

I hope she doesn’t let the steering wheel slip through her hands at the assessment or do the hand over hand turning

[@mydrivewa]

Hi and thank you for the comment. Just curious to know if you were pinged for that during your driving test? Cheers

[@thetruthisoutthereofficial]

@@mydrivewai had my licence for 20 years and had 3 flawless passes with car automatic then car upgrade to manual and recently HR upgrade and i was always told to use pull and push technique on steering wheel and never to let the wheel slip through my hands or do hand over hand steering during driving assessment
