failed my manuevers test twice and retesting in the am
#21
if he had the green arrow then the on coming driver ran a red light. he would have been givin props for not being in an accident. not failed. somehow I doubt that the tester is that incompetent. really the point is any time a light turns on you before you can COMPETE your turn, you have made and unsafe turn. you need to be behind the white line until you can safely COMPLETE the turn, without being in the intersection after the light changes and without making someone yield to you. I know in the real world thats not how it is done but in reality if you don't do it that way and oncoming traffic hits you, guess who is at fault?

Ok What ever? I was always taught the opposite, and never failed a test that way. I alway been taught once you started through the light and it turns on it is safer to complete, not stop and \block the interception. Why stop at the white line on a green light? That the point you 2 are missing he had the GREEN LIGHT!!!! So what is he to do Stop and back up over the 4 wheeler behind him since the light turner yellow after he got into the interception? NOT.. So I guess it better to stop in the middle of the road after you started and block traffic. Least that what your saying he should had done, then accept the ticket for impeding traffic.. Stopping for green lights is almost as dangerous as running red lights. What he did was the safetest thing he could do. And do not tell me you never had a light changed while your in the middle of it.
somehow I doubt that the tester is that incompetent.

hey orange,
im in the baltimore area, i have approvals from all 6 that i listed in the previous post. schneider wont touch me because of an accident from 3 years ago. Same with roehl. Crete doesnt hire from the school i graduated from, basically told me to get 6 months and call them back. Never heard back from transam. i could fill out more apps and wait but i think i have a good nucleus of choices. know any other options that might be worth exploring?? i almost went to millis back in february before i decided to go to school locally. I would go there but they require a year or require you to attend their school for 3 weeks unpaid. Last edited by bigpapa7272; 10-13-2008 at 02:34 AM. |
