And here the lady next to me has been driving with an INVALID license for 3 years but they were SO accomadating to her..in fact they gave her back her INVALID license,told her she could rewrite the beginners test and let her DRIVE AWAY I had to rebook for Aug 24 GIMME A BREAK:angry:

I'd call the ministry and tell them what happened, especially if you have proof that you booked correctly in the first place! Good luck with your license when you do get it. I got mine the second I turned 16, oh so many years ago! One written test to get my 365 and I was diriving that day! Got my official licence 4 weeks later....oh how times have changed!

Fly is right, I would call somebody and make sure you're not losing any money for their mistake.

I never ran into any problems like that, however they were very rude. I would be so mad if that happened to me! You should definately complain!
mysticgraces Posts: 422 Joined: 2006/02/21	2006/06/23, 07:02 AM Slorbets-Ever since that drive center went private I find that there are more screwups and ya they are very rude...Iam just gonna drive Walkley and Hawthorne up and down till I can do it with my eyes closed.. The test consists of driving down walkley,then making a right on to Hawthorne..doing a lane change etc so its not a big deal..I just wanted to get it over with! I used to live off Hawthorne and havent been back in over 4 years,I couldnt believe how much it has built up!

slorbets Posts: 205 Joined: 2006/04/07	2006/06/23, 10:09 PM I grew up in the country, and I got my licence in the country and it was super easy! There was no lane chaging or anything like that. The test took about 10 minutes. I didnt even have to do a parallel park between any cars. The people were still rude though. Now that I live in Ottawa, I find it hard to get used to the driving here, so much more traffic, and many people seem to like to drive through red lights here. I suggest if you want to ace a drivers test do it in a rural area! For mystic and all the people local to the ottawa area, I did mine in Refrew, and I had no problems! Good luck with the drivers test!

slorbets Posts: 205 Joined: 2006/04/07	2006/06/25, 05:02 PM yeah, i would assume that going out of town would make things much easier! Less traffic, and less craziness to worry about! Good luck, let me know how it goes!
