Information received soon after,
I contacted a local licence and
service registry for the test.
In the meantime, a good friend
advised that I study the Alberta
Driver’s manual and prepare for
my test. I learned that by going
to transportation.alberta.
ca/733.htm, I could click on
the Driver’s Manual and print it.
With further clicks online, there
would be sample driver’s tests. I
had to search many of the links to
find what was needed.
I discovered that the practice
tests consist of multiple-choice
questions. Using these tests, I
prepared for my actual on-road
driver’s test.
The road test went well; after
it, the examiner told me that I
had passed with a loss of sixty
points, most of which related to
my uphill parking that involved
releasing the brakes and allowing
the car to move into the curb with
the wheels turned away from
the curb. There was no charge
for the test. While I waited for
the paperwork to be done at the
registry I asked how long my
present driving licence was valid.
I learned that I am ‘good’ until
later in 2019, so I hope I will be
celebrating again. ●
