Smile Sackville driving test

Has anyone did their driving test in Sackville NS?Just wondering what route they might use on the day.
I'd better get stuck into the drivers handbook again......i thought i knew it all until i did the online theory testNot good.

our youngest 2 took their tests there. Both did different routes so varies. Just be careful though as you pull out of car park as there is a 3 way stop, in favour of oncoming traffic. I know someone who was failed there before they'd even started
Good luck

i wouldn't worry too much about the NS driving test as its quite straight forward. The theory test i took in Dartmouth when i got a couple wrong i was able to explain my answer, the lady asked if i'd driven in London which i had, she then corrected the ones i.d got wrong and passed me. The guy that took me for the driving test in Halifax had already stamped passed on the sheet before i drove around one block about back to the test station. His words were "i'm not gonna tell you how to drive as you've been driving forever"
