This is a copy of the M2 Exit checklist the ministry uses to test you. I scooped this from the GTAM web site, originally posted by Car2slo. Here is the original thread: http://www.gtamotorcycle.com/forum/viewt...hp?t=34160

Thanks to PIVTR for letting us know about this posting on GTAM.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Personal and examiner information has been removed but here is a copy of the M exit (license for full M) checklist that they use when doing you road test. The line items are everything they look for with a mark for each failure. 26 marks or a critical error will get you failed.

Someone feel free to host these files since my host may limit it's access eventually.

Enjoy and post if this should be stickied.

- Road test takes about 35-45 minutes.
- You wear a headset and examiner follows behind you giving directions.
- Road test consists of the following driving conditions;
1. Residential / Industrial road (watch for schools, trucks, driveways)
2. Riding on regular road with left, right, intersections.
3. Highway ride with merging, exiting and passing.
4. 1-2 emergency stopping procedures (pulling over to the side of the road and getting off bike)

- Stuff to remember if you're doing the test. All of these identified in above test checklist.
1. Head movement is critical and you need to do traffic checks constantly.
2. Watch bike position and keep in correct blocking position. Also position your bike correctly for left, right turns (differs slightly on single lane and multiple lanes with designated turning lanes)
3. Must use rear brake.
4. Brake light must remain lit when stopped.
5. During stopping left foot should come down, must be solid and not lifted/bounced when stopping, or dragged when starting. (bike always in gear)

CodeBlue from GTAM web site Wrote:They are also very very picky about your speed when merging on the highway. Before merging you should be up to the speed limit... but if there are cars in the merging lane they say you should wait to move? (if the lane is ending I think this is even more dangerous).

You should never make a lane change even if the car behind you is 25 car lengths away. This is because on the test you are doing the speed limit of 100km/hr... but on most highways EVERYONE is going faster so you can't lane change in front of anyone if you will cause them to break/slow down it is considered unsafe. Go figure.

The 2 other riders I talked to and did their test that day had their G licence for 10 or more years including myself and we all thought our lane changes/speed were fine...but regardless you have to do what they expect on the test.

Thanks bud. The guy was telling us, there is a 33% success rate if you take the test directly with the ministry and there is a 98% success rate when you take it with a school that offers a course.

In our theory class, they each gave us a copy of the form above. Then we spoke about all the items. During the class, we are supposed to accutually perform all the items on the list.

From what I remember, there are 400 possible marks, and you can have up to 25 wrong. The majority of the possible loss of marks in in turning. He had us drive around last night while he took a general assessment of our skills. Luckily, he said there is no reason why any of us would fail. He said you have to be pretty bad in order to fail.

The main tip given to us is check your mirrors and blind spot before your turn and after. They really want to see you moving your head. And get back into the right lane.
Did my M through Humber Course
It is advisable to go that route - they go through everything with
you - the whole check list - give you tips
it will help you realize some of your bad habits
and yes the success rate climbs exponentially with the course
Very true...same with RTI's M2 exit course. Well worth it and a lot of fun.
