I passed my class 5 exam on my second attempt few weeks ago and would like to share my good experience on my examiner - Mike.nnMike tested me on every driving skill - parallel parking, left/right turns, hazard perceptions, lane changes, school/playground zone etc. He even designated a specific parking space to test my parallel and stall parking which I understand some examiners will let one parking at a space at own’s choice. He didn’t make it easy for me and thus I am not writing this good review on him simply because he passed me on the test.nnMike is fair, reasonable and professional. When he called my name and walked me out to the parking lot, he explained to me the test process in a very clean but cheerful manner, which eased my nerve. It was really a nice gesture for an examiner to do so.nnDuring the test, Mike always gave very clean and advance instructions comparing with the examiner in my first attempt who always gave last-minute instructions. There was an occasion I needed to make a right turn on a stop sign, I was waiting for a clear gap and a car behind me pressed the horn. After I made the turn, Mike asked me to explain the situation. I explained that it was clearly unsafe for me to make the turn but the driver in the car behind me couldn’t see other cars coming and thought I was too slow. He agreed and further explained how one should drive safely instead of driving under the pressure of others. After the test, he was very patient in giving me feedback.nnOverall, it was a very nice experience going through the test with Mike!
beautiful office, very new, fast service, very great service fast and smooth the workers.nnthis is no fault of any of the ICBC staff there, they are all extremely pleasant and efficient. very pleasant experience and the interior of the Richmond ICBC is so well designed.nnBut please please use stronger sanitizer for the vision screening test. The testing machine plastic was very oily especially in the nose and under eye area and it shone. Even after the staff wiped it with a tissue it was unsanitary and smelled rotten and oily when I put my face in it to do the vision screening. I didn't want to make contact with the machine or press my head on it because of the strong smell it's a little suffocating. Please use a single use plastic thing? or wipe it with extra strong alcohol between uses because everybody has to be in such close contact to the machine. Thank you so much
I had Mike as my Class 5 driving examiner, and he was excellent. He was friendly, calm, and professional throughout the entire test. He gave clear instructions, which helped me stay focused and comfortable. His respectful and positive attitude made the experience much less stressful. I really appreciated how patient and encouraging he was. Thank you, Mike, for making the road test a fair and positive experience!
I had an amazing examiner, Van. At the beginning, I was a bit nervous, but he was very friendly and made me feel comfortable. He explained everything clearly, and after my road test, he went over all of my mistakes in a helpful and respectful way. I really appreciated his professionalism and encouragement. I'm happy to have passed my road test. Thank you so much, Van!
I had an excellent experience with Mike as my Test examiner. Right away he was inviting and casual and easy to talk to which helped immensely with the nerves of taking a test! Nice as he was, he had no problem being blunt and forward about any issues he spotted. Pass or fail id be more than satisfied either way just because of the professionalism.
