Question

im turning 16 this december but i can do my test in november...my friend said i shouldnt...but what do u think an have you done it?

i live in canada

Answer 1

Definitely.
I don't live in Canada so I'm a little unsure about what the weather is like.
However, you should get out for a lesson ( even if it is with a family member ) for each type of weather condition.
Rain, hail, thunderstorm even, snow, ice, fog, sunny!
When I was learning to drive, yes I did go out in the winter, I also covered driving in every weather condition as well, however because we didn't have a thunderstorm or hardly any wet weather, I made sure that after I passed my test I got my instructor to come for a few lessons with me, when the rain finally started coming and the weather got colder!

Answer 2

If you live in an area where winter driving is a concern, then I strongly suggest that you learn under these adverse conditions. In fact, I believe that winter driving skills, including handling skids, should be mandatory.

It may be a little harder, but your driving ability will be better as a result of learning in more difficult conditions.

But if you are farther south and winter driving is not much of an issue, then it doesn't really matter.

Answer 3

Why wouldn't you take your test? If you have problems with snow/ice, then don't take the test on a slick day, and get more instruction and practice driving in slick situations.
