WIPERS ON. LIGHTS ON.

Lights on does not always mean you are visible.

In rain, spray, mist, or fog, many cars are driving with daytime running lights only. The front looks bright, but the rear lights are often completely off.

From inside the car, it feels like your lights are on. The dashboard is lit. The road ahead looks clear.
From behind, that vehicle can be almost invisible.

What many drivers do not realise is that daytime running lights on majority of cars illuminate the front.

Rear lights often stay off unless dipped headlights are switched on manually. Automatic settings do not always react to poor visibility.

Fog is another common problem.
Automatic lights do not reliably detect fog because fog is about visibility, not darkness.
If visibility is reduced to 100 metres or less, fog lights must be switched on manually.
Do not wait for the car to decide.

Simple reminders for everyone.

If your wipers are on because of rain or spray, your dipped headlights should be on.

Use fog lights when visibility drops below 100 metres.

Turn fog lights off once visibility improves.

A glowing dashboard does not mean all your lights are on.

Be visible from the front and the back.

Visibility saves lives.

IF YOU ARE NOT SURE PLEASE FIND A SAFE PLACE TO GET OUT AND CHECK WHAT YOU LOOK LIKE TO OTHER ROAD USERS.

COMMON MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT THE DRIVING TEST

🚫 Myth 1: Examiners Have a Pass Quota
✅ Fact: There is no pass or fail quota. Examiners assess each candidate based on their performance during the test. If you meet the required standard, you pass simple as that.

🚫 Myth 2: Stalling Means Automatic Failure
✅ Fact: Stalling isn’t an automatic fail. It’s how you handle the situation that matters. If you stall but recover quickly and safely, it’s typically marked as a driver fault.

🚫 Myth 3: Crossing Hands on the Steering Wheel Leads to Failure
✅ Fact: Crossing your hands while steering isn’t a fault in itself. Examiners look for safe and controlled steering, regardless of hand position.

🚫 Myth 4: You Must Drive at the Speed Limit at All Times
✅ Fact: Speed limits are maximums, not targets. Driving at a speed appropriate for the road and conditions is key.
Driving too fast or too slow can both be faults.

🚫 Myth 5: Exaggerated Head Movements Show You’re Checking Mirrors
✅ Fact: Examiners are trained to notice subtle mirror checks. Over-exaggerating head movements isn’t necessary and can be distracting.

🚫 Myth 6: Taking the Test at Certain Times Increases Chances of Passing
✅ Fact: There’s no evidence that test timing affects outcomes. Being well-prepared and confident is the best strategy, regardless of the time of day.

🚫 Myth 7: Examiners Want You to Take a Specific Route
✅ Fact: While certain routes are commonly used, examiners can vary the test route. Familiarity with various road types and conditions is more beneficial than memorizing a specific path.

🚫 Myth 8: Driving Slowly Shows You’re a Careful Driver
✅ Fact: Driving significantly below the speed limit without reason can be seen as a lack of confidence and may disrupt traffic flow.

🚫 Myth 9: You Automatically Fail If You Take a Wrong Turn
✅ Fact: Taking a wrong turn isn’t an automatic fail. Examiners assess your ability to drive safely, not your navigation skills.

🚫 Myth 10: Male Learners Pass More Easily Than Female Learners
✅ Fact: Pass rates can vary, but success depends on individual preparation and performance, not gender.

By understanding the facts, you’re better prepared to approach your driving test with confidence.
Don’t let myths hold you back focus on safe and informed driving practices.

Remember, staying informed and practicing safe driving habits are key to success.

Let’s leave these myths behind and focus on what truly matters on the road.
