Driving Performance Evaluation Score Sheet is very essential document. As you know, the driving test is a nerve-wracking experience. You may feel like you’re about to throw up, and your hands are sweating so much that the steering wheel feels slippery in your grip. The examiner will be asking you questions while they monitor your speed and following distance from behind the rear mirror – any mistake could mean an automatic fail. All eyes are on you as the car slows down for a traffic light or when you have to make a right turn at a busy intersection, and all it takes is one tiny error for everything to go wrong.
You can avoid this nightmare by practice, practice, practice…
