About this lesson
When your road test is coming up, practice needs to look like the test. We run a timed mock test using the skills described in the Manitoba Driver's Handbook, then coach the items that cost you marks. We prepare you for the test; MPI examiners conduct and score the official road test.
Lesson plan
- 1
Pre-drive check
Signals, lights, mirrors and seat — the checks an examiner may ask about.
- 2
Mock test drive
About 25 minutes of continuous driving with no coaching, just like test day.
- 3
Manoeuvres
Parallel parking, reversing, hill parking and a three-point turn where safe.
- 4
Scored debrief
We go through your score sheet, item by item, with a short replay of each error.
- 5
Targeted practice
The remaining time goes on the two or three habits most likely to affect your result.
Who it's for
- 5L drivers with a road test booked or coming up
- Anyone who did not pass a previous attempt
- Nervous test-takers who want a dress rehearsal
You'll leave with
- A realistic picture of test readiness
- A short, prioritised fix list
- Calmer nerves on the day
What to bring
- Your learner licence
- Your road-test date if you have one
- Questions from any previous attempt
Canola Lane is an independent school. We do not book, conduct or score MPI road tests.
